Daytona cracked down on spring breakers years ago.
Yes I know.Daytona cracked down on spring breakers years ago.
There are two types of boat owners. The ones who love boating and actually use their boats all the time and the ones who buy a boat, use it a lot for the first year and then park it. They're the types that say "The best two days of owning a boat are the first and last". I've owned a few boats and worked in the industry for a while. Even small boats can be expensive to maintain and upkeep. If you use them a lot, it's worth the money but a lot of people spend thousands (if not more) a year on their boat and never even use it.My folks pops loves his boat. I mean more than his house! I agree with this statement and my experience he will talk your ear off about a boat.
Some level of chaos is expected with any Spring Break but South Beach has been abnormally wild this year. It's never been this bad.
Every spring break destination goes through this process where it simply becomes too much to handle and changes have to be made. When I was in college Daytona was the spot until a guy got shot/killed on the strip. The very next year the city made it real uncomfortable for spring breakers and eventually people stopped coming. That's when Panama City Beach took off. (and now they're going through that same process)
When this happens, the kids find elsewhere to go. This year it appears that South Beach and (believe it or not) Fort Lauderdale have taken steam from PCB and Daytona. I was on Lauderdale Beach recently and it's the busiest Spring Break I've seen in a very long time. South Beach seems to attract more of the thugs though, while Lauderdale has actual college students.
Here in Panama City Beach the shut down Spring Break quite easily. For the whole month of March they made it illegal to have alcohol on the beach or any sandy areas, and they close bars and stopped alcohol sales at 2am instead of 4am. It effectively stopped spring break in one year. All the kids moved over to Orange Beach, AL. The following year they implemented the same rules. Kids were getting out of hand with fighting, shootings, rapes and robberies. I enjoyed it when I was that young, but it is a different party that was going on then.know your history my man. fort lauderdale was THE spot for many years until they decided they didn't want the college kids anymore. you can easily make it more uncomfortable for them.;
end spring break? lol good luck.
Ft. Lauderdale stopped the original spring break at the close of the 1980s. All you have to do is tell kids not to come and get the hotels to charge $500 a night for a hotel room. Easy Peasy
lol look at mmw and ultra. that's why it will not end
The demographic has changed, ft Lauderdale is mostly state schools, SoBe is all private schools. Kids from NYU, Northwestern, Tufts, etc are already paying 650/night for the Delano and buying cabanas at FB. The main destination this year for UM was a Bimini package at 2k pp + drinks, casino, and a couple frats rented yachts...it’s a whole different shibang than the ole Daytona for 300$ total.
yeah i agree. I'm 30 not 90 lol. MMW and Ultra will keep the march party going in miami no matter what anyone tries to do. the hotels in miami are already stupid expensive and it doesn't deter anyone esp during the big weekends

Because raising hotel is not how you deter spring breakers. You enforce alcohol laws, increase police presence, start arresting and harassing kids every 10 minutes, etc. You make things uncomfortable for them and eventually they stop coming. That's exactly how Fort Lauderdale and Daytona did it.yeah i agree. I'm 30 not 90 lol.

neither are miami beach in terms of rep and allure. the nightlife blows comparatively to miami beach and miami, overall. its like preventing people from coming to vegas to party. like other party cities, you deal with it. also, for the most part, random kids from u of iowa aren't getting the hotels on the beach and getting tables at story, liv, rockwell, etc.
