If you are looking to celebrate abroad and on the beach, these are some cool places.
Cancun, Mexico: More of a populated place, however, lots of locally owned shops. Big on tourism. Beautiful beaches.
Bermuda: Lots of tourists. Lots of local interaction. The whole island is pretty much waterfront.
Nice, France: More on the populated side. Good interaction with the locals. World renowned for it's beaches.
I hope you consider these places. They would all make a good trip.
Here's your criteria from what I got:
- Culture
- Mid to lesser population
- Atmosphere
- Markets
- Exploration
For you, I'd suggest two 'environments'. Either historical or cultural.
If you want a historic and cultural experience, where you can absorb the local way of life, try Europe. Strolling through the streets of Italy, Spain, France, Japan, or Turkey will engulf you in culture wherever you look. There's lots to see, and what appears as commonplace to locals will be foreign to you.
The second option is cultural. This includes many developing countries like Mexico, Costa Rica, Peru, Thailand, and India are popular tourist destinations to get away to another world and embrace a new way of life. Everything looks exotic and takes exploring.
Well, considering your budget at that age... I can't suggest fancy trips, but you can take a three day cruise through the Bahamas.
Its a wonderful area and the islands of Grand Turk, and Nassau are amazing. You can learn a lot about their culture, and take tours, see amazing sites, buy lots of things, etc. Not to mention, there are also many things to do on the ship. Beaches, AND pools will be available as well. :)
Another idea would be going to stay in Miami, Florida. Its a pretty amazing city. Half of it is pretty urban, with many malls, and the other half is pretty rural and down to earth. Great hotels, awesome markets with plenty of bargains, etc.
Whatever you choose, I hope you have a great time.
I have used the website go-today.com to get packages to London and to Paris. They have a very wide selection. Maybe something there will strike your fancy. Good rates there too. No, I don't work for them.
You didn't mention where you are located now, what style of an area you were thinking like first world or third world, and about the distance you want to travel.
Happy upcoming birthday.
What if u go to Malaysia? U can see different ethnics Malaysia especially one of the state of malaysia, sarawak.

You can also be able to do our capital city tour... Explore local market, fish Market N also u can do island hoping, where u can be able to see how Maldivians live
Istanbul could be great for you if you want to get more culture. The important thing is that wherever you go be careful about your security.
