Where to visit
 
My husband and I are trying to plan a visit in mid February. Our priority is a nice beach. Hopefully somewhere removed from the "spring break" crowds. We appreciate your suggestions!

A visit to where??

Where are you coming from?
How long is your trip, how many days or nights?
Looking for anything besides a beach?
Budget?
What kind of lodging do you need or want?

Mid-February is winter in the US and also coincides with President's Week holiday and the so-called "spring break" period. Also, the only "beach areas" in the Continental US that might have suitable warmer weather (never a guarantee at that time of year) will be south Florida and Southern California. The south coast of Texas will be mild temperature wide but not always hot.

For greater odds of warm weather suitable for beach time in mid-February you would be better off going to one of the islands in the Caribbean, Mexico, Central America or South America.

How about Hawaii? But yes, we need more info to be truly helpful.

Your question is too vague, provide more info to get better results.

So Cal won't be beach weather in Feb - unless one is very lucky. That is our rainy season.
