Florida Vacations #1:For a great Florida Gulf Coast Vacation try Cape San Blas Beach near Apalachicola on the Florida Panhandle. Fishing and oystering are mainstays of this historic working fishing village on the west side of the Apalachicola River. Florida beaches along the Gulf of Mexico are still relatively undiscovered. This Florida vacation spot is known as "Florida's Forgotten Coast" by the locals.... in fact, beautiful Cape San Blas Beach is one of the top rated beaches in the country.

Vacation Ideas in Florida #2: If you are planning an Orlando Florida Vacation take a drive just north of the city to Skydive Deland, in Deland. Thrill to the sight of lines of skydivers cascading down directly overhead....you can watch or even join in the fun yourself going solo....or strap yourself to an experienced diver for a tandem jump. Champion skydivers train here for competition. Tom Cruise and former President George Bush both jumped at this sky diving training capital of the world.

Great Vacation Ideas in Florida #3: Jules Undersea Lodge, in Key Largo, is an underwater "hotel" that holds up to six people. Complete with air-conditioning, hot showers, stereo music, VCR's, a fully stocked galley, and unlimited diving for certified divers. This authentic underwater research habitat is open to anyone so you don't have to be a diver to enjoy a stay here, although you do have to scuba dive 21 feet beneath the surface of the sea to gain entrance.

Great Vacation Spots in Florida #4:Silver Springs Park near Ocala calls itself "Florida's original tourist attraction". Besides the glass bottom boat, which was invented in Silver Springs in 1878, you will find a full array of family fun including a Jungle Cruise, Jeep Safari, Petting Zoo, Botanical Gardens, Reptile and Creature Shows. Great Vacation Spots in Florida Idea #5:For a Florida Panhandle Vacation plan a self-guided tour of seven historic mansions and plantation homes. Stop in at the Tallahassee Visitors Center for a copy of the guide, Southern Manors and More Tour....it's a map and all the info you need. There's a fine antique automobile collection at Pebble Hill Plantation.... Victorian furniture is the focus of The Knott House Museum ....See the Broadway style Showboat Theater at the Melhana Plantation.

Vacation Ideas in Florida #6:A unique idea for your vacation in southern Florida is to rent a houseboat for a tour of the The Everglades National Park. A boat tour is a great way to see salt-water crocodiles, alligators, manatees, dolphins, herons, ibises, and many other birds.

Canoe the Wilderness Waterway Trail or rent a kayak, bike, skiff for fishing....or charter a fishing boat. The park also has lots of hiking trails to explore.

Florida Vacations #7: A Segway Tour of Sarasota would make a fun vacation idea in Southwest Florida. Florida Ever-Glides offers a tour of downtown using Segway Human Transporters. Watch a brief video strap on a helmet and you're off on two wheels. It's easy and fun.

Florida Vacations #8:How about vacationing in a private home perched on a secluded Florida Keys peninsula. Chill out with your own private pool/spa, boat dock and beach while surrounded by the ocean. Enjoy the complete seclusion of an island, with all the conveniences of being on the mainland. It all happens at the The Peninsular House in Grassy Key Harbor.
