Orlando in March - am I choosing good dates?

Hello,
I've been to Florida many times but always in May or July, and I want to take my boyfriend for his first trip next March. I'm looking at going from 14th-28th. Is March very busy for the whole month, or is it just spring break and Easter we need to watch out for? I picked those dates because they appear to be just as spring break is finishing, and a couple of weeks before Easter. Hoping it won't be too busy then and that the weather will still be fairly warm, too - any thoughts appreciated!

It’s difficult to predict, avoiding Easter is a good move but Spring break dates vary and run throughout March

If you search crowd calendars results also vary. Undercover Tourist website has “Highest crowds” predicted from 14th March to the end of the month, whereas another site, Magic Guides predicts all days in March as “average crowds” except the 31st.

March is very busy. I have just been and the wait times are long. I knew this before I went and expected only my 3 FP's a day and any others were a bonus. If you plan well it should be fine. It definitely won't be quiet though.

Thank you both - looks like the end of April may be a better way to go.

I was / am planning for 10 days around the same dates, expecting it to be busy but just thinking planning and getting lucky with FP's and it won't be too bad

We’ve just returned from a weeks March trip. We usually travel April/May and it was extremely busy in comparison. We were actually quite shocked by the crowds - even the people mover had a 40 minute queue. That said, we had a great time and would go again in March if it was our only option. It just needed a bit more patience and planning than our usual trips

We have just got back and we went 3/3 for 3 weeks. Having been in different months we wouldn’t go in March again. The roads were very busy and the queues in Disney were bad too. Our favourite time is November, weather still good, if not better than we just had in March!
