Top 5 Florida Summer Vacation Spots<\/h2>\n

Panama City Beach<\/span><\/h2>\n

If you\u2019re searching for the best of what Florida offers (think sun, sand, family attractions, and nightlife) set your sights on Panama City Beach. There are so many adventures to be had here on the land and sea. The \u201cSpring Break capital of the world\u201d comes alive in March, that\u2019s for sure, but it also welcomes visitors the other 11 months of the year. With over 300 sunny days per year, and temperatures hovering in the low 80\u2019s, there\u2019s no bad time to book a trip.<\/p>\n

Naples<\/h2>\n

Upscale, charming Naples serves as a perfect backdrop for a glitzy Florida vacation. World class dining and shopping draw wealthy travelers to the area. The turquoise waters of the Gulf of Mexico provide endless entertainment and relaxation, too. Hunt for seashells while you pack together sand for the perfect castle. Take a fan boat through the Everglades to experience southern Florida\u2019s amazing ecosystem. Don\u2019t forget to pack your clubs – this city is famous for its incredible golfing.<\/p>\n

Destin<\/h2>\n

Offering emerald green waters flanked by miles of sugar white sand (perfect for building sand castles) it\u2019s no wonder Destin’s known as \u201cThe World\u2019s Luckiest Fishing Village\u201d. The warm waters of the Gulf of Mexico highlight the area\u2019s many attractions – both by land and by sea. Spend an entire day outdoors sport fishing, parasailing or scuba diving.<\/p>\n

With over 340 days of sunshine per year, and average temperatures that never drop below 60 during the day, this is a world-class retreat any month of the year.<\/p>\n

Kissimmee<\/span><\/h2>\n

A short drive south of Orlando finds you in sunny, friendly Kissimmee. Here you\u2019ll be near all the popular theme parks like Disney, but you\u2019ll be away from the bustling crowds. Rentals will cost less than a stay in Orlando, so you\u2019ll have extra cash to spend on park tickets and meals. This area also offers activities for those who love outdoor exploration, with exotic plants and animals in the local nature preserves and great restaurant options.<\/p>\n

Cape Coral<\/span><\/a><\/h2>\n

Sunny, friendly Cape Coral is a smart choice for those who want a quiet escape away from the hustle and bustle of the major Florida hot spots. Renowned Gulf Coast beaches, verdant golf courses and family attractions like the popular Sun Splash Family Waterpark make Cape Coral an appealing destination for visitors. With more than 400 miles of canals (more than Venice, Italy), boating, fishing and watersports are favorites among those spending time here. Walk through a nature preserve, treat yourself to find dining, or shop away the afternoon when the sun gets too hot.<\/p>\n
