Texas A&M University
While Texas A&M is a good 7 – 8 hour drive from some of Texas’s hottest spring break destinations, the campus still has a summertime feel during winter.
A&M outdoor attractions include the Century Oak, which was one of the first trees planted on campus and hosts special events like wedding ceremonies and proposals. Avid golfers are also drawn to the campus’ golf course.
Finally, Texas A&M provides students with opportunities to rent equipment for camping, rock climbing, water sports and outdoor sports like volleyball, softball, tug-o-war, and bocce ball.
