FLORIDA
LESS TRAVELED
Sure, you could be on a beach somewhere. But in Florida, there’s much more to experience than beach time. Paddle through marshlands and natural springs. Witness marine life, including the famed Florida manatees, in the wild. Go zip lining through limestone canyons. Mountain bike (yes, in Florida). Soak in Gulf Coast culture. Above all, just enjoy the opportunity to be outside year-round. Oh, and don’t miss the beaches—they’re amazing, too!
