LIFE IN FLORIDA

There are many reasons why Florida is one of the fastest growing states in the country. Whether it’s a coaster at Universal Orlando, the great weather year round, or 663 miles of beaches along the Atlantic Ocean and Gulf of Mexico, there’s never a shortage of places to go for some fun and recreation. Our south Florida location puts us in the perfect spot to take advantage of it all.

 

You can stay close to home and be on a beautiful sandy beach in minutes, soaking up the sun, fishing the surf, or riding a paddleboard or wave runner. For those looking for a little more privacy and change of pace, in a little over an hour by car, Florida’s west coast offers breathtaking sunsets, and white sandy beaches with little commercial activity. And for the true outdoorsman, you can camp, hike, fish, mountain bike, canoe, and kayak just about anywhere in the state as there are several hundred state, county, and city parks to visit year round. For the animal lovers, there’s opportunities to swim with dolphin or snorkel the only living coral barrier reef in the continental United States, located about 50 miles south of Miami in the Florida Keys.

 

If you’re more of a thrill seeker, there’s no better place to vacation in the world than Orlando, just a 3 hour car ride away. Central Florida is home to the country’s top amusement park destination. You can reach speeds of close to 70 miles per hour on the Hulk coaster or relive the Harry Potter movies at The Wizarding World of Harry Potter, both at Universal Orlando Resort. For those with families, the dream of going to Disney can now become a reality, again and again.

 

Fear not history and science buffs, Florida happens to be home to the oldest city in America, St. Augustine, established in 1565. It’s home to the oldest house, one of the oldest cathedrals, and the Castillo de San Marcos, the oldest masonry fort in the continental United States at over 320 years old. Just south of St. Augustine in Cape Canaveral, you can find Kennedy Space Center, Nasa’s primary launch center of human spaceflight.
