Florida
Florida teems with places to go, things to do – and in such
vast variety that nobody’s passion is denied. More than 100
years before the Pilgrims rocked Plymouth, the first Europeans
set foot on American soil in “La Florida.”
Authentic Florida. That’s what you’ll discover when
you vacation in the downtowns and small towns of the Sunshine State.
So fill your next Florida vacation with local color and explore
the Sunshine State like the locals do.
Family adventures are right around the corner in Florida’s
downtowns, where some of the best museums and interactive science
centers are located. Beaches, zoos, aquariums and theme parks are
just minutes from Florida’s downtowns and small towns– making
them the perfect starting point for your next Florida escape.
Follow nature’s path to discover Florida’s hidden
splendors and escape in true solitude amidst landscapes of great
beauty and diversity. When it’s time to see Florida’s
great outdoors, lace up your hiking boots and head to trails that
take you from one end of the state to the other. That’s the
beauty of Florida’s “must-do” hikes: minimal
commitment, maximum benefit.
Hit the greens 365 days a year, if you’re so inclined. That’s
only one advantage Florida has over most other golf destinations
in the U.S. The Sunshine State’s unique peninsular location
provides a watery bonus (or curse, some would say): Dozens of holes
within clear view of the shores, bays and inlets of the greatest
water hazards in the east – the Gulf of Mexico and the Atlantic
Ocean.
Most of Florida needs no introduction. Its fame as a family destination
for theme parks resounds around the world and draws visitors from
every corner of said world. But this larger-than-life playground
has more to offer than what lies behind turnstile gates. Visitors
of all ages find shopping on scale with its other attractions as
well as museums, sports, performance arts, green oases and outlying
towns and neighborhoods with their own distinct personality.
Welcome to Florida. Be a kid again.
