Florida is beautiful all year round, but especially in the warmer months.  Spring is a favorite season of many because it’s not too hot and not too cold.  Florida has a lot to offer in the way of sightseeing, so this is the best way to check out activities that are exciting to you.  As you know, there are plenty of cities in Florida, so there is sure to be at least one that strikes your fancy.  Here are some suggestions to consider:

Miami is a sizzling hot city with a unique vibe, one that will have you pumped up to party the night away.  Many stars have called Miami home, including Gloria Estefan, Jennifer Lopez, and Rosie O’Donnell.  One visit and you’ll definitely see why!

Panama City is another great place to see, so it is no wonder that it has become the ultimate spring break destination.  There are plenty of things to see and do, including a Dinner & Dancing Yacht Cruise designed to showcase the beautiful St. Andrew Bay.  An all-you-can-eat feast is included, and live music so you can dance to your heart’s content.

Visit Orlando for some family-friendly fun and a visit to Fun Spot Action Park, where you can ride a go kart and take a leisurely ferris wheel ride; whatever suits your mood.  Kids will be thrilled to learn that there is also an arcade!

Fort Lauderdale, located in Broward County, Florida, is often referred to as the ‘Venice of America’ because of its intricate and expensive canal system.  It is a popular destination for tourists and is a major yachting area with 42,000 yachts and 100 boatyards and marinas.  Conveniently located a few miles from Miami, there are a number of tours and activities that take you to this nearby city.

Miami is considered to be a global city based on its pivotal role in finance, media, entertainment, commerce, the arts, and international trade.  It is home base for many company headquarters, TV studios, and banks.  Many young people also flock to the South Beach area for spring break because of its dynamic night life.  South Beach was the first section of Miami Beach to be developed and it has seen a booming economy and increased tourism over the years.

For a wonderful overview of the Miami area as a whole, take the combination Miami City Tour & Biscayne Cruise.  This tour spends 2 hours visiting the most popular tourist hot spots in South Florida.  You will go through the downtown Miami area and financial district as well as Little Havana and Coconut Grove on your way to the Biscayne portion of the day.

On the Biscayne Bay Cruise, you will see million dollar homes on Star Island - an artificial oval-shaped island located between Miami and the island of Miami Beach - from up close.  This is a public neighborhood but it is manned by a guard in a guard house to give the impression that it is exclusive and private.  Many stars have called this area home including Will Smith, Madonna, Rosie O’Donnell, and Gloria Estefan.

This tour and cruise take 6 hours combined, with 2 hours devoted to the Miami City Tour.  For scenic views and an inside look at how the other half lives, book your space on this tour and cruise combo and you will be glad that you did!

A great vacation activity that has been sweeping the nation is whale watching tours.  It seems that wherever whales seem to migrate to, make their home, or travel through, a whale watching tour exists.  Whale Watching Tours can provide you with an exceptional tour during your vacation in many locations across the country.

The most popular destinations where whales are spotted most often are Hawaii, Maine, Alaska and California but Whale Watching Tours offers tours throughout the world.  When visiting places like New Zealand, Canada, Iceland, Mexico, Australia and South Africa, you can participate in an exciting whale watching tour.

Most often, you travel several miles out into the ocean or bay to witness the magnificent creatures.  You will be aboard a large ship capable of keeping you safe in the event of a whale playfully splashing in the water.  In the Maui Whale Watching Tour, you are aboard a 30-foot hard-bottom inflatable raft which is great for the more adventurous tourists. 

If you are visiting San Diego, you will be engaged by your educated guide who will take you on an adventure to see the whales, as well as teach you about their migratory patterns and other wildlife in the ocean. 

During many of these tours, you will see more than just the large whales.  Often times, people will catch glimpses of dolphins, otters, sea lions, varieties of fish and many birds.

If your travels bring you to a location where a whale watching tour is offered, then you must take advantage of it!  These are great experiences for all ages and are sure to delight even the most seasoned wildlife watcher.  Visit www.whalewatchingtours.net to see if your next vacation can include one of these fantastic adventures!
