Destinations in Florida

It’s easy to understand why Florida is such a popular tourist destination. With great beaches, vibrant cities, and family attractions, Florida has been drawing visitors since Ponce de Leon first arrived in 1513

From the Everglades to Miami and the Keys, Florida is home to everything you’d want in a travel destination, including great weather nearly year-round. Don’t let the famous Florida gators keep you from a visit to this exciting state.

A lot of Florida’s tourists head to the Orlando area, and it’s not hard to understand why—after all, Walt Disney World, the Magic Kingdom, and Epcot Center are here, as are Sea World Orlando and Universal Studios Orlando. The Orlando area also features some of the country’s best golf courses, which can be played year-round.

More theme park fun can be found in Tampa, at Busch Gardens Tampa Bay. The Tampa area also features state parks and museums that the whole family can enjoy. In Pensacola, you’ll find pristine beaches and great seafood.

For a taste of hot and spicy nightlife, head for Miami and Miami Beach, where Cuban-influenced culture and cuisine have added a jolt to the city. Key West, Key Largo, and the other Florida Keys have exciting beach resorts and destinations, with some of the best fishing in the country.
