Nowhere on earth has better theme parks than Orlando. At Walt Disney<br />
World Resort alone you’ll find Magic Kingdom Park, EPCOT, Disney’s<br />
Hollywood Studios and Disney’s Animal Kingdom Park, not to mention<br />
the two water parks, Disney’s Typhoon Lagoon and Disney’s Blizzard<br />
Beach. Then there’s Universal Orlando Resort, home to the hugely<br />
popular Wizarding World <strong>of</strong> Harry Potter, as well as Marvel Super Hero<br />
Island, the Jurassic World VelociCoaster (Florida’s tallest and fastest<br />
rollercoaster) and Universal’s Volcano Bay water park. Plus <strong>of</strong> course<br />
there’s LEGOLAND Florida Resort, home to more than 50 rides,<br />
shows and attractions, including the world’s first Peppa Pig theme park.<br />
Away from the theme parks, the Sunshine State is all about having<br />
fun in the sun. As the only state with two coastlines, its 1,200 miles <strong>of</strong><br />
magnificent beaches are the envy <strong>of</strong> the other 49 stars on the flag. We<br />
especially love the quiet, white-sand beaches <strong>of</strong> the Gulf Coast – places<br />
like St. Pete Beach near Tampa, Sarasota and Naples – where days can<br />
be spent searching for dolphins and manatees in weather that’s rarely<br />
anything but perfect.<br />
Things get a lot livelier across on the east coast where South Beach, Miami<br />
remains <strong>America</strong>’s cool kid, famous for its Art Deco architecture, turquoise<br />
Atlantic shoreline, vibrant Latin culture and exciting restaurant scene.<br />

Starting virtually in Miami’s backyard are the Florida Everglades, <strong>America</strong>’s<br />
greatest wetland, while unfurling to the south-west are the Florida Keys,<br />
a string <strong>of</strong> tropical islands connected by an ocean-skimming highway.<br />
Key Largo is the closest to Miami and the self-proclaimed dive capital <strong>of</strong><br />
the world. Islamorada is the place to head to for the best in sport fishing.<br />
Marathon is one for the history buffs, thanks to its fascinating museum<br />
on Pigeon Key. While colourful Key West, the southernmost point <strong>of</strong> the<br />
continental <strong>United</strong> <strong>States</strong>, is famous above all for its fiery red sunsets,<br />
raucous nightlife and as the former home <strong>of</strong> Ernest ‘Papa’ Hemingway.<br />
