season while Central and Southern Florida sees more holidaymakers during the winter
and early spring months.

eight-foot observation tower, or Caladesi Island State Park – reported to be one of the few
remaining undeveloped barrier islands on Florida's Gulf Coast.
You can opt for coastal camping by considering Anastasia State Recreation Area with its
long stretches of white, pristine beaches and a variety of birds flying across. Alternately
check out Johathan Dickinson State Park, known to be Florida's only designated national
wild location.

towering oaks. Highlands Hammock State Park - home to abundant wildlife – can be a
perfect choice. If you want a refreshingly different experience, you can certainly
consider Gold Head Branch State Park and St. Joseph Peninsula State Park with
waterfront cabins or Blue Spring State Park that has plenty of family vacation cabins.

person.
