March (Spring Break) destinations?
I am looking for suggestions here. I have been to Cancun three times now and thought about going back, but I hear it was hit pretty hard by one of the hurricanes.
I am still in my early 20s and would probably go with one or two other chaps between 21-24. Looking for a warm destination that is pretty decent through mid-March and has a pretty active nightlife scene, but also daytime attractions.
Any suggestions? I am thinking maybe Ibiza?

Ibiza is very crazy - an all-night party. I went in August w/an overnight cruise stop. Not sure about March. I'd consider Mazatlan, Cabo, Aruba, maybe Bahamas.

Like during the day are you looking for hiking in the rain forest, or just plenty of beaches? or water sports? or what?
and at night, do you want like dance clubs or just beachfront bars or something in between?
and what's the price range?
everybody have passports?

Great Beaches in San Juan;
Above average nightlife, Casinos and lots of places to stay.
Good daytime trips for snorkeling or the hiking in the Rain Forest.
Local strip clubs that offer a bit more than requested
Really nice weather, that is usually pretty consistent, though, there is often a bit of rain.
Other plus is that you do NOT need any documentation [US Citizens] and the drinking and gambling age is 18.
Feel free to ask any other questions or PM.

You want to be where the party is? Watch MTV. 2006 Spring Break locations were announced in January last year.

Why dont you try Valencia instead?
Valencias Fallas are from march 15th to 19th, main local festivity with lots of sightseing, and non stop nightlife party opportunities. The city is beautiful like never before and is base for the current Americas cup edition.
I could say many more but maybe without full objectivity as its my hometown. Any way believe me its worth a visit.
You can find out more in the internet (remember the keyword 'fallas'). My advice..:
If you decide, you'd better start to look for a place to stay because it will be completely overbooked!
