Where to stay
- Hawaiian Inn: past home of daily spring break pool parties.
- Hard Rock Hotel Daytona Beach, south of the boardwalk.
- Check how far your hotel is from the boardwalk and clubs, because traffic is slow in March.
Nightlife
- Razzle's, Ocean Deck and 509 Lounge: the classic spring break clubs, accessible with the local VIP Passport.
- Concerts at the Bandshell at the end of the boardwalk.
Days out
- Main Street Pier, the boardwalk and the famous drive-on beach.
- Daytona International Speedway tours and the Motorsports Hall of Fame.
- Day trips to Orlando's theme parks or Kennedy Space Center (about 65 miles).
Heads up
- Bike Week overlaps early March and fills hotels. Check the official dates.
- In 2026, police made 75 beachside arrests in one spring break weekend. Expect zero-tolerance enforcement.
