Florida
Florida is one of the most popular holiday destinations in the world, appealing to both adults and children. Nicknamed the “Sunshine State”, Florida is known for its huge stretches of golden coastline, warm climate and, most notably, the popular theme parks spread across the state’s sub-tropic landscape.
Some of the most popular attractions include the Walt Disney World Resort theme parks Epcot, Hollywood Studios, Magic Kingdom and Animal Kingdom, each brimming with shows and rides – as well as your favourite Disney characters. Sea World and Busch Gardens are also a must-visit for holidaymakers, as well as Kennedy Space Centre for those wanting to get some educational value from their holiday.
For those looking for a more ‘grown-up’ theme park experience, Universal Studios is situated just a short drive away from Disney, giving older thrill-seekers the chance to ride on the Incredible Hulk and Jurassic Park, with the new ‘Wizarding World of Harry Potter’ opening in late 2010 looking set to be a huge hit for Potter fans.
Of course, Florida also has some more ‘traditional’ activities - tourists can take a fan-boat ride across the everglades, taking in some of Florida’s diverse wildlife, and for those looking to relax, Daytona Beach is an hour’s drive away from Orlando, making it the perfect place to work on your tan and relax from hectic park-visiting.
Miami
Although the city of Orlando may spring to most people’s minds when they think of Florida, the Sunshine State has many other cities with plenty to offer, and Miami is one of them.
The most populous city in Florida, Miami is located on the southern tip of the state and therefore experiences higher temperatures and heavier storms than those cities further north. Miami’s tropical climate means that the majority of the city is surrounded by marshland, known as the Everglades.
Miami is home to many of the world’s biggest stars and as such, there are regular tours running across the city pointing out who lives where.
Miami has some of the best hotels and accommodation around, so paying a visit to this wonderful city could be on the cards if you plan on touring the USA.
Here are just some of the things you can do whilst staying in Miami.
Theme Parks
Theme Parks are the ideal place to take the kids on holiday – and it gives adults a chance to let their ‘inner-child’ run wild for a few hours.
Some of the best and most famous parks are situated across the pond in the USA, such as Walt Disney World Resort and Universal Studios in Florida, but there are theme parks in the UK and Europe that give them a run for their money.
Some theme parks offer accommodation within their grounds, often through hotels, villas and houses, making your visit an easy, enjoyable and relaxing one.
Golf
Those with a sporting streak may want to try a spot of golf on their next holiday, as many hotels offer some of the best courses around.
A golf holiday is a perfect way to unwind with friends or work colleagues and many hotels have a number of different courses available, making each round different from the last.
You can experience these luxuries at the following hotels.
