Activities and
Attractions in Florida
Well known for
manned space launches, theme parks, beaches and
alligators, Florida is a tourism destination for many of the world's travelers.
As a large state, Florida has geographic regions that cater to a wide difference
in terms of climate, topography and wildlife. For instance, while the northern
edges of the state might see snow on some of the more brisk days of winter, Key
West residents may be basking in the warmth of another beautiful day of island
life in the Florida Keys. Similarly the activities and attractions of Southern
Florida mostly involve outdoor and water themes and those of central and north
Florida will be indoors or seasonal. The activities and attractions available to
a Florida traveler will differ greatly depending on the time of year and
destination but it is certain that, with minimal planning, a great trip or
vacation can be experienced.
Maps, state
parks and historical places
Complementing our
links to pages describing activities, attractions and adventures in many Florida
cities, as well as bird
and other wildlife pictures
and vacation and
day trip articles, we have additional
links for the adventurous tourist to other web resources that allow you
acquire the latest Florida highway maps for free; some that will enable you to
get driving distances between Florida cities; and others showing locations of
state parks and places of historical interest in Florida. We also have
links to the three national parks in Florida and a link to the Florida Division
of Marine Fisheries showing a page of animated color images useful for
identifying Florida fish. Here you'll also find information about securing
saltwater and freshwater fishing licenses.
Pictures and
Vacation Accommodations
For the out-of-town
tourists, we also link to some partner websites showing pictures from different
Florida cities and vacation rentals featuring mostly "rent-from-owner"
vacation condos, houses and villas. At the pictures
website you can get an idea about the area you want to visit. Each city has
40-80 pictures of beaches, houses, roadways and downtown areas that will allow
you to get a "feel" for the area. If you are looking for great
economical accommodations for your Florida visit then please see our vacation
rentals website. We cover the Gulf Coast, the Panhandle, Atlantic Coast, the
Disney area and Florida Keys and are sure you'll find suitable vacation
accommodations.
