Vacation Packages

Florida is an extremely popular vacation destination. The number of folks who travel to Florida every year is astounding. Not surprising, considering the weather, the beaches, and all the available activities – golfing, fishing, diving, and nearly endless theme parks.

Unlike cities in the Northeast, cities in Florida have grown outward, rather than upward. Beyond the cities you’ll find plenty of wilderness areas in the panhandle and the center of the state.

Florida spring break vacationers hit the hottest beaches from mid-February to early April, with the biggest crowds of college students descending on Florida’s beaches in mid-March. Spring break travelers find plenty of sun and fun at Daytona Beach, Miami’s South Beach, the Florida Keys and inland in Orlando at Universal Orlando, the water parks and the Disney theme parks.

There is fun in Florida in everyone. Many people have vacationed in Florida for years, and cherish the memories of those trips. The weather is a close to tropical as it gets in the 48 states – winters in the 60s and 70s, and summers in the 80s and 90s.

The Florida climate is also ideal for growing citrus fruit, most notably oranges. Florida is the largest producer of orange juice in the world. If you’ve never driven by an orange juice production facility then you don’t know what orange really smells like, it is a fantastic perfume. The state is the leader in the tangerine and grapefruit crops too.

Tomatoes are another major cash crop for Florida. The state even outproduces California. Most of Florida’s tomatoes are used whole, whereas California’s are relegated to being used for processed foods.

Florida offers pleasures for everyone, regardless of interest. Outdoor sports abound, and most are available all year. Auto racing, horse racing, golf everywhere, and of course all the theme parks make Florida special.

Florida has become an international tourist destination, with Orlando leading the way with its various theme and water parks located in the city. And don’t forget you can explore boating, diving, deep sea fishing and many more activities along the Florida coast.
