Beach holidays Florida

On your beach holiday to Florida, enjoy basking in the fantastic weather of the Sunshine State and much more. Florida’s Atlantic Coast consists of 2,897km (1,800 miles) of coastline, 1,200 sandy beaches and numerous beautiful places for you to spend a sunny day.

The Cocoa Beach area is a relatively small beach community, featuring some lovely shops, restaurants and a handful of family-friendly activities, as well as 16 beautiful and spacious beaches and beachfront parks at your disposal.

Daytona Beach is located about an hour’s drive from Orlando and offers mile upon mile of white sandy beaches. One thing that sets the beaches apart is their hard-packed sand, which means that, in designated areas during the day, cars are allowed to drive along the beach – a fun and memorable experience in itself.

Another great destination for you to visit while in Florida is Fort Lauderdale. With 37km (23 miles) of sandy beaches, a coastal waterfront and an amazing warm climate, watersports are obviously popular here, with every activity with a board or sail on offer, as well as waterskiing, deep sea fishing and scuba diving.
