Although likely the most well known, the Florida Keys are definitely not all Florida has to offer. Experience Miami, the perfect place to express yourself. Everywhere you turn there’s something to explore — rare orchids at Fairchild Tropical Gardens or a thought-provoking art exhibit in Wynwood. Explore Siesta Key or privately owned Long Boat Key, both off the coast of Sarasota just south of Tampa, for a leisurely daytime stroll along white sugary sand beaches followed by a tranquil ocean sunset. If your style of relaxation involves art, education or history, drive into nearby St. Petersburg, or Tampa for the day. Visit the Salvador Dali museum to view the largest collection of Dali paintings, sculptures and drawings in America; the Florida Aquarium, which hosts a variety of aquatic species along with offering an eco-tour through Tampa Bay on a 64-foot catamaran; or the Royal Theatre, an Arts Academy that once served as one of only two movie theaters catering to African Americans in the area during segregation.
