When you fi rst think of Florida all the thrills and excitement of Orlando come to mind – and chances are your customers will make a stop at Walt Disney World Resort or Universal Orlando Resort –but beyond the adrenaline-fuelled fun there is so much more to discover. This is a destination with it all. From the sun-kissed beaches of the Atlantic and Gulf coasts to the sublimely beautiful islands of the Florida Keys, not to mention the vast national and state parks offering plenty of wide open spaces and natural beauty for all to enjoy.
A hotspot is Central Florida located between Orlando and Tampa, Winter Haven is home to LEGOLAND Florida Resort and the new Peppa Pig Theme Park – both great options for young families, whilst at nearby Lakeland you’ll fi nd the spectacular Bonnet Springs Park, a 168-acre facility blending nature, art and interactive experiences, and Circle B Bar Reserve, a prime destination for hiking, bird watching and cycling.
Just an hour’s drive from Orlando, Daytona Beach boasts 23 miles of iconic white-sand beaches, miles of hiking and biking trails, parks, golf links, and eco tours. From November to March, visitors can witness hundreds of manatees seeking the warm water refuge at Blue Spring State Park. Of course, the Daytona Beach area has become synonymous with racing, so a visit to the Daytona International Speedway is a must.

Sun, sea and sand offer a superb Florida combination. Dotted along the west coast of the Florida peninsula, this region boasts stretching white sandy coastlines and stunning golden sunsets over the Gulf of Mexico, along with vibrant culture and a craft beer scene in St. Pete/Clearwater. Over to the east, Florida’s Atlantic Coast is a surfer’s mecca, with dozens upon dozens of beaches offering the ultimate ‘surf breaks’. Or if your customers are in search of a walk on the wild side, Florida has 175 state parks and the largest network of natural springs in the world, this includes two national seashores and one national preserve. As well as the Everglades National Park, Florida also has Dry Tortugas and Biscayne National Park. Suggest a boat trip from the Gulf Coast Visitor Center to see dolphins, birds and other wildlife, or a tram tour at Shark Valley to view alligators and wading birds.
