Florida Must Dos

Florida has one of the largest reefs in the world – take a boat or catamaran trip and snorkel to your heart’s content.

Where do we start?! With theme parks that include SeaWorld, Walt Disney World and Universal Studios, Florida – and especially Orlando – is the family entertainment capital of the world.
Fine Cuisine:
If you’re in the Keys, you’ll have to try a piece of Key Lime Pie!
Live like a local:
Miami has a huge Cuban population. Head into Little Havana and enjoy watching the old men playing dominoes in the shade and discussing all things Cuban.
