Ah, Florida. The Sunshine State. How do we love thee? Let us count the ways! You’ve got incredible beaches, the buzz of Miami (Will Smith dedicated a whole song about it for a reason), Disney World, Universal Studios, Little Havana, and did we mention the sunshine?

Florida is a sunny playground where you can choose your own adventure, from partying in Miami, riding the rollercoasters in Orlando, taking in the tropical landscapes of the Florida Keys, kayaking with manatees in Crystal River, and spotting gators in the Everglades.

Where to stay in Florida

Florida is one of the biggest tourist magnets in the US for friends, couples, and families.

For a romantic getaway you’ll never forget, the Florida Keys has everything you’re looking for and more. Key West, Key Largo, and Islamorada promise laid-back beach vibes, awesome dining and drinking options, and all the tropical feels.

The party never stops in Miami, where you’ll find stunning beaches, a fantastic cultural blend, and, of course, Palm Beach. For fun-filled family destinations, Tampa on the Gulf of Mexico and Orlando, the home of theme parks, are great choices. You’ve got Disney World, Universal and SeaWorld. However, you might need a vacation to recover from your vacation!

Florida’s coastline is packed with top-notch beach destinations. We love Fort Lauderdale, Delray Beach, Clearwater, and Boca Grande for a dose of Florida sunshine, pristine beaches and cocktails galore.

Top things to do in Florida

• Check out the Kennedy Space Center. If you’re into all things space exploration, then a trip to the Kennedy Space Center is a must. Get up close to rockets, discover space history, and you might even catch a rocket launch.
• Be inspired at the Art Deco District in Miami. You won’t be able to stop snapping photos in this super cool, colourful part of Miami.
• Go snorkelling in the tropics. Have an under-the-sea adventure in the Florida Keys. Head to John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park and make friends with the fish.
• Go on a tour of the Everglades. Unique to Florida, hop on a guided airboat tour of the Everglades to get up close and personal with some gators.
• Stroll through St. Augustine. The oldest city in the US is just gorgeous. You can wander through cobblestone streets, go on a spooky ghost tour and visit a fort complete with cannon firing.

Insider tips for visiting Florida

• The heat isn’t playing. The summer is extremely hot and humid, and it can even be boiling in the winter. Keep a water bottle on you at all times, don’t skimp on the sunscreen and wear suitable clothing.
• Don’t forget the bug spray. Mosquitos don’t mess around in Florida, especially in the Everglades and at the beaches at sunset.
• Skip theme parks at weekends. Weekends are pure chaos at the theme parks, so try and plan your trip off-season and head to the parks midweek, if possible.
• Be aware of hurricane season. Avoid hurricane season and book your vacation either early spring or late fall.
• Fall in love with manatees. When the temperature drops, visit places like Blue Spring State Park and watch as the cute creatures flock to the warmer waters.
