Spring break rules keep Miami Beach crowds small and calm as second peak weekend begins
Briefly

The recent spring break weekend in Miami Beach saw a lively yet subdued atmosphere, thanks to newly imposed restrictions aimed at controlling rowdy visitors. City officials have proactively worked to reduce violent incidents through a city-funded social media campaign that humorously illustrates the consequences of breaking rules. Barriers were set up along popular streets, with police presence heightened to manage the crowds. While some college students acknowledged the nightlife was quieter than previous years, they still enjoyed their time in the area, showcasing the city's mixed vibe this spring break season.
Miami Beach officials have been blunt about their desire for those looking to party hard and break the law to go elsewhere - or face parking closures, increased towing fees, and a heavy police presence.
The vibe was lively but subdued, and crowds were thin, reflecting the success of a city-funded social media campaign aimed at deterring rowdy spring breakers.
