Fun

Spring Break in and around San Antonio practically writes its own adventure story, and kids get to be the heroes. From descending into the otherworldly depths of Natural Bridge Caverns to paddling through downtown on a kayaking trip, every day brings a new discovery. Young explorers can follow real dinosaur tracks at Government Canyon, meet creatures from around the globe at the San Antonio Zoo, and wander the peaceful Yanaguana Trail at Mission San Juan, where history and nature blend beautifully. It’s the kind of Spring Break that leaves kids curious and begging for “just one more trail.”

It’s impossible to think of Margaritaville without Jimmy Buffett coming to mind. (Fun Fact: He actually wrote most of “Margaritaville” in Austin, wrapping it up in Key West.) It’s true, he popularized the easy-going Caribbean attitude and way of life, and we thank him for that. At both Margaritaville Lake Resort Lake Conroe | Houston, and Margaritaville Beach Resort, South Padre Island, the vibe is evident. Once you arrive, the lifestyle he created inspires every inch of these luxury resorts. So, even if you don’t know all the songs by heart, you will certainly find paradise.
