Spring Break 2023 is just a few weeks away, with some schools setting students free in late February. But for the Destin-Fort Walton Beach area, March 4 will be the official start of the season.

Expect to see some Auburn, Florida Gulf Coast University, University of South Carolina and University of Virginia spring breakers that week.

The next week will likely be the biggest though. Here is a partial list of schools on break March 11 through 14.

  • Duke
  • Mississippi State
  • Southern Methodist University
  • Texas A & M
  • Troy
  • University of South Florida
  • University of Florida
  • University of Georgia
  • University of Louisville
  • Vanderbilt
  • University of Miami
  • University of Mississippi
  • University of Alabama
  • Florida A & M
  • Florida State University

It doesn’t end there, though.

Clemson and Georgia Tech are on break the week of March 18 and some schools save their Spring Break Madness for early April.
