Think of Florida and most people think of a Disney-filled destination, but Florida holidays aren't just about theme parks and Mickey Mouse, there are sandy beaches, wildlife parks, designer shopping villages, diving centres and an A-list nightlife to behold too. The sunshine state of the US, Florida is a must-visit destination all year round so whether you're looking for a fun-filled summer holiday for the family or simply want to escape the UK for some winter sun, there are plenty of last minute deals to take advantage of. And because it's synonymous with families, there is ample accommodation on offer. From self-catering villas with private pools to all inclusive themed hotels, you won't struggle to find something that suits you and your budget. At the heart of Florida is the Magic Kingdom but once you've sampled the delights of Seaworld and Universal Studios, head west and rest those weary legs on the sandy beaches at Clearwater and St Petersburg. Younger crowds and couples might also want to make a date with Miami Beach where you can sunbath amongst the celebrities by day and rub shoulders with them at night. Or if you prefer the sea to the sands, a trip to Florida Keys is essential. Offering diving, snorkelling, sailing and fishing trips, you can even go swimming with the dolphins. The Everglades National Park is full of wildlife that you might not want to come face to face with in the water - alligators! And if it all gets too much, why not hit the shops? With designer outlet villages offering impressive discounts and department stores aplenty, you can come home with a whole new wardrobe.
