Florida - The Sunshine State – is also known as the entertainment capital of the world with its famous Orlando Theme Parks and together with some 1,200 miles of glorious beaches and a consistently warm climate it is no surprise that Florida continues to be the UK's No. 1 most popular long-haul holiday destination.
Most visitors are familiar with the thrills of the Theme Parks, the shopping temptations of the factory outlet malls and designer stores and the countless bars and restaurants. You might not want to miss: The Disney Parks including The Magic Kingdom, Epcot Center, MGM Studios and Animal Kingdom; the Universal Orlando Theme Parks of Universal Studios and Islands of Adventure; Sea World Adventure Park; Downtown Disney and Pleasure Island, Busch Gardens Tampa, the Kennedy Space Center, swimming with the dolphins at Discovery Cove or the manatees at Homosassa Springs Wildlife State Park at Crystal river, visiting the Florida Everglades, and there is so much more...
The water-parks are not to be missed - Wet 'n Wild on International Drive Orlando, Sea World's Aquatica, Wild Waters at Ocala and Busch Gardens Adventure Island at Tampa.
A surprisingly short drive from Orlando, the Gulf of Mexico makes for a startling contrast. Here on the Gulf Coast of Florida, the beaches are white, the seas are inviting and the living is easy. The diversity provides you with the ultimate choice of places to wind down and relax, and wherever you stay you will always be close to the beach.
On Florida’s East Coast the Atlantic coastline stretches from north to south, with hundreds of miles of sandy beaches and its famous and popular resorts including Daytona Beach, Cocoa Beach, Fort Lauderdale, Miami Beach and The Florida Keys.
No wonder visitors to Florida return time and time again!
