Florida vacations entice travelers with 1,100 miles of beaches, blue waves and white sands from Pensacola to the Keys. You'll find plenty of opportunities for birding, beachcombing, surfing and snorkeling on the Sunshine State’s Gulf Coast and Atlantic beaches.

For heart-pounding thrills and family fun, visit Tampa Bay’s Busch Gardens or Orlando’s Walt Disney World Resort and Universal Studios. Florida vacations can include a photo op at the United States’ southernmost point in eclectic Key West, or a taste of authentic Cuban cuisine in Miami. Nearby, spot alligators and flamingos in the mangrove swampland of Everglades National Park. Stroll historic downtown Fort Meyers, embrace your inner spring-breaker in Daytona Beach or salsa dance the night away in Fort Lauderdale.
