Senior Week (also known as Beach Week, Senior Trip, or Grad Week) is a week where recently graduated high school and college seniors in the United States, mainly from the East Coast and the South go to the beach to spend time with their friends.[1] This observance typically occurs during the last half of May and most of June.[2] During Senior Week, the graduates rent condos, beach houses or hotel rooms and enjoy each other's company. Some popular Senior Week destinations include Dewey Beach, Delaware; Myrtle Beach, South Carolina; Panama City Beach, Florida; Ocean City, Maryland, and Wildwood, New Jersey.[3][4][5][6][7][8]

Ocean City, Maryland has several events catered to Senior Week which include Play it Safe, the Ocean City Car Show, & Dew Tour. Graduates are able to ride the bus free during senior week if they are to participate in any of the Ocean City-run Play it Safe events which include volleyball, miniature golf, paintballing, and karaoke.[9][10][11][12][13]

Myrtle Beach, South Carolina has become one of the most popular locations for recent graduates to visit in May and June.[14] Many students participate in the Myrtlemaniac Card club and entertainment program which includes a series of themed events, a concert, and discounts on transportation, food and other activities.[15]

The film The Graduates is about a group of high school graduates from Maryland who go to Ocean City, Maryland for Senior Week.[16]
