A lively and dynamic holiday destination, Orlando is home to some of the world’s best-known and best-loved theme parks, including WALT DISNEY WORLD Resort and Universal Orlando® Resort. It’s also a shopping mecca with state-of-the-art malls selling designer brands at bargain prices. It’s also becoming a golfing mecca, so pack your clubs.
Fort Myers Beach, Bonita Springs and Sanibel pages 168-175
Home to some of the top beaches in the United States, you can’t miss the sunsets here – they are a must! Fun in and out of the sun is abundant, from dynamite dolphin and manatee encounters, dinner cruises and shopping to nearby Busch Gardens® – whatever your flavour, you’ll find it here. Enjoy the best of both worlds – the beach and all Florida attractions.
Naples and Marco Island pages 176-185
The beauty of Sarasota’s beaches stretches along the Gulf of Mexico and Sarasota Bay, to the brilliant white sand and azure waters of Longboat, Lido and Siesta beaches. But there is so much more to this area than just beaches! Experience the sophistication and charm of Sarasota – it has restaurants, shopping, golfing and cultural activities.
The Florida Keys pages 186-193
The castaway island of Sanibel is virtually untouched by tourism. There are no advertising hoardings or neon signs, just lush, unspoiled scenery with lots of wildlife and beautiful beaches. Fort Myers is livelier with lots of family restaurants and bars. It’s only a 30-min drive between the destinations, so it’s easy to enjoy their different charms!
Perfect for a twin-centre holiday, combine the upmarket sophistication of ‘the finest town in Florida’ with the pristine, natural beauty of Marco Island. Naples is packed with gourmet restaurants and stylish shops on attractive pedestrian-friendly streets. Marco Island boasts some of the world’s most beautiful beaches, not to mention extensive bird and nature sanctuaries.
The Florida Keys stretch 160 miles south of Miami and are often described as ‘Florida’s jewels’ because of the sparkling effect created by the closeness of the sea on both sides. Key Largo, Islamorada and the Middle Keys are perfect for a laid-back, Caribbean-style holiday with water sports galore. Key West is the most famous and combines lively nightlife with culture.
