Walt Disney World - Florida Attractions

The Walt Disney World Resort covers over 47 square miles, which means it’s really big. Huge. Don’t expect to see everything in a day or two here, allow a full seven days to make the most of it. There are really four theme parks to explore: Magic Kingdom Park, Epcot, Disney-MGM Studios. There are also two water parks, Blizzard Beach, and Typhoon Lagoon.

Universal Studios Orlando - Attractions Tickets Florida

There are two amazing theme parks here, Universal Studios and Universal's Islands of Adventure. There’s also Wet ‘n Wild, and the dining and entertainment complex CityWalk. Several great hotels as well, all within easy walking distance, and you have everything you need to make a great Orlando holiday right here. 

Discovery Cove - Attractions in Florida

Florida offers many attractions without any roller coasters and here’s a remarkable one. You can search all day for a ride of any sort here, but you won't find one. Instead here you can swim with dolphins, and explore rocky coves teaming with tropical fish, with nothing but your swimming trunks and a snorkel between you and the wildlife. Be careful though, ‘never trust a dolphin’.

Bass Museum of Art - Florida Attractions

This Art Deco building in Miami houses a collection of exhibits including paintings, sculpture, and textiles. The permanent collection includes European paintings from the 15th to early 20th centuries from Renaissance, Medieval and baroque eras. Rubens, Rembrandt and Toulouse-Lautrec all have work in here. 

Miami Beach - Florida Attractions

Part of the bigger Miami Beach, it's America's answer to the French Riviera, with some Art deco thrown in for good measure. Ricky Martin frequents the bars, restaurants, hotels and night clubs, but don’t let that put you off. Aspiring models come here to be discovered, and sun themselves on the beautiful white beach.

Miami Seaquarium - Attractions in Florida

Miami Seaquarium has exciting shows, great exhibits and enjoyable, educational presentations in a beautifully landscaped 35 acre park overlooking Biscayne Bay. You'll see whales, sea lions, turtles, sharks, manatees, birds, alligators and more.

Busch Gardens - Florida Attractions

Busch Gardens is the ultimate family adventure park offering an array of fascinating attractions based on exotic encounters with the African continent. There are over 2,700 animals here, and live shows, restaurants, and great rides, such as the amazing 4D adventure ride ‘Pirates’. 

Sanibel and Captiva - Attractions in Florida

Those who enjoy getting away from it all will love the Florida Gulf coast island of Sanibel and its smaller sister Captiva, where the main event of the day is the magnificent sunset and traffic stops to let a tortoise to cross the road, which probably doesn’t happen every day, just quite often. Come here not for the bright lights, but to enjoy the white sandy beaches, the warm Gulf waters, the huge variety of wildlife, and the fabulous fresh seafood. 

Key West Aquarium - Attractions Tickets Florida

At the Key West Aquarium you can discover the undersea world of the Florida Keys. Daily shark and turtle feedings and a ‘touch tank’ gives visitors a hands-on experience with sea life. Remember to wash your hands.

Everglades Alligator Farm - Florida Attractions

Look! A real working alligator farm. Now this is something you just can’t miss, it’s not every day you get to see an alligator drive a tractor, milk a cow, or apply for an EU agricultural subsidy. Oh okay, it’s not that type of alligator farm. Apparently it’s to help make sure alligators don’t become extinct. Don’t they know that alligators are great big nasty pieces of work that occasionally attack and kill people?

Blimey, if we lived in Florida, we’d be championing a ‘Make the alligator extinct’ campaign, and wouldn’t be resting until they were all gone. Every last one. Then we’d take on the snakes, which we’re not overly fond of either. However, should you want to go and have a word with an alligator, this is the place. There are regular shows, and children will get a chance to hold a baby alligator. Rather them than us.

Palm Beach - Attractions in Florida

A ship laden with Cuban coconuts was wrecked on the offshore barrier island (its 14 miles long and half a mile wide so they couldn’t miss it really) off Palm Beach. 100 years later some of he world's wealthiest people moved in. America's aristocracy, the Kennedys, Rockefellers, Trumps and other society names filling the fabulous mansions here.
