Things to do and see in Florida

Florida is one of the USA’s most diverse states with wide ranging experiences, from beaches and wildlife to theme parks and historic towns. Orlando is the main destination for Walt Disney World, Universal Orlando Resort, and other major attractions, while Miami combines lively nightlife, international food, Art Deco architecture, and the beaches of South Beach.

The Florida Keys are ideal for scenic drives, snorkeling, diving, fishing, and sunset views, with Key West known for its relaxed atmosphere and historic streets. Clearwater, Sarasota, Naples, and Fort Lauderdale are also popular for beaches, boating, dining, and waterfront walks.

For nature and history, visit Everglades National Park to see alligators, manatees, birds, and mangrove wetlands by airboat, kayak, or walking trail. St. Augustine, founded in 1565, features Spanish colonial buildings, Castillo de San Marcos, and charming old streets.

Further north, the Gulf Coast offers quieter beaches and springs, while Tampa has Busch Gardens, museums, and access to nearby destinations such as Clearwater Beach. A good trip might combine Orlando’s attractions, a Gulf Coast beach, the Everglades, and several days in the Keys.
