Safety Tips

Spring break is almost always a blast, but it is important to take some safety precautions. With so many people visiting all at once, and lots of parties, things can become overwhelming and even dangerous.

Do use the buddy system; always stick with a friend during your vacation.
Do drink responsibly if you are going to drink, there is no reason to spend your holiday recovering from a hangover.
Do keep your wallet close; pickpockets thrive in crowds.
Do meet new people as long as you are travelling with trusted friends.

Don’t overdo it with partying. You want to keep your judgement in tact to avoid scams, theft, and other dangers.
Don’t go solo, especially at night, and be wary of strangers.
Don’t flaunt your cash, showing off is a great way to make yourself a target.
Don’t listen to anyone offering you a ‘free’ anything, it’s probably just a lure to a scam.
