Florida,Beaches & Keys !!!
Miles of white sandy beaches, a pleasant year-round climate and the undisputed theme park capital of the world – small wonder that the fabulous state of Florida is America’s number one holiday destination. But don’t think that Florida is all about sandcastles and rollercoasters. Get off the beaten track and discover a
hidden side to the state for a truly rewarding holiday.Contrast the laid-back beach resorts with fashionable Fort Lauderdale and the vibrant Latino-influenced city of Miami, or head down to the beautiful Florida Keys,
where the lifestyle is as horizontal as the landscape. You might just need it after a week of Orlando excitement with Mickey and his friends....
10 MUST DO's
Ultimate Experience
On the Gulf coast of Florida there is some incredible sea life, but perhaps the most amazing is the manatee.
You have a good chance of seeing one around the crystal river.
Great Journey
Drive down the Florida Keys, stopping at tiny islands and passing over huge bridges that link these sub-tropical idylls.
Where to go for adventure
The Everglades National Park is one of the largest national parks in the USA. It is an incredible wilderness,
filled with the ubiquitous alligator.
Best beaches
Florida has too many amazing beaches to count, but for style it has to be Miami's South Beach.
Water paradise
Florida has one of the largest reefs in the world – take a boat or catamaran trip and snorkel it.
Dates for the diary
Got a white beard? If so, head to the Ernest Hemingway look-a-like competition at Sloppy Joe's
(Hemingway’s favorite bar) in Key West.
Best for kids
Where do we start? With theme parks that include SeaWorld, Walt Disney World and Universal Studios,
Florida – and especially Orlando – is the family entertainment capital of the world.
Fine cuisine
If you’re in the Keys you have to try a piece of Key lime pie.
Splash out
An icon of Miami Beach, The Fontainebleau hotel has played host to presidents, the Rat Pack,and even James Bond. A $1 billion refurbishment has brought this bastion of 50's style into the twenty-first century.
Live like a local
Miami has a huge Cuban population. Head into Little Havana and see the old men playing dominoes in the shade.
