As things begin to get back in gear, many people want to know how to tell which Florida beaches are open. To that end, we have found there are several ways to check - especially if you know where you are headed.
Over the course of time, we have witnessed several communities that had opened,...
Recently we blogged about our trip to Delray Beach and their Green market. The experience inspired us to go back to the Sarasota Farmers' Market for what we think is probably the best of its kind in the State of Florida. At 40-years old, it certainly is one of the longest-lived in the Sunshine State.

We have just learned that Florida Fun Travel has topped 200,000 views since our inception three short years ago. It was at the end of last year that we hit another milestone - 100,000 unique visits. Both those numbers are for us both huge and humbling.
When we started our travel experience, it was mainly...
National Picnic Day is coming up, so we decided to go and have a real Florida picnic in preparation to blog about this blessed event. We had seen an old fashioned hoedown advertised near Bartow - and had planned to attend that even.
However, after hours of searching (it seems our satellite and computer-aided guidance...
 The good news is that NASGRASS is ready to sling sod at their home opener, the bad news is, it won't be until October. Two days before their inaugural race for the 2024-25 season, the track was hit by a massive rainstorm. It left the place waterlogged.
 So now they will be racing on the second Saturday of...
Many people have not heard of the Florida Flywheelers. We are here to tell you it's a great little trip. And the Christmas season might be the best time to see it.
We were invited out to their sprawling 370 acre site last year and had a wonderful time. They have a full slate...
 We had the opportunity to visit Dade City just in time for their Kumquat Festival this past January. There literally were hundreds of vendors and thousands of people packing the streets of this tiny burg for this annual event. City blocks were sealed off for the double rows of 10x10 pop-up tents featuring...
It's been months in the making. Now, like a butterfly, Seven-The Sebring Raceway Hotel has emerged just in time for Race Week. The place was painted Sebring Blue earlier this year. The entrance sign now beckons visitors.
The hotel was christened just in time for the beginning of Race Month at the world famous...
We can hear it now - "Where's Wabasso?" Nestled between Sebastian and Vero Beach along the fabled Treasure Coast is the hamlet of Wabasso. Although it seems small as you drive through the single stoplight at the intersection of US Highway 1 and State Road 510, the area considered Wabasso covers quite a bit of territory...
As we have traveled through Florida we have come up on some wonderful historic downtown areas. We've visited Melbourne, Punta Gorda and Bartow to name a few. Located just off the Tamiami Trail south of Venice, the shopping area along Dearborn Street in Englewood is every bit as enchanting.
Also known as "Historic Olde...
