After two years of COVID uncertainty, South Florida is expecting a tourism rebound for spring break.

Starting in early March and lasting this year until mid-April, spring break typically draws thousands of students, families and tourists to the sunny weather and sandy beaches.

“The hospitality industry took the biggest hit during COVID,” says Stacy Ritter the president of the Greater Fort Lauderdale Convention and Visitors Bureau. “As it relates to the bed tax we lost tens of millions of dollars. The economic impact was billions.”
