Hurricane season runs from June to November, with the highest risk between August and October, though most visits are unaffected.
The best time to visit Florida
The best time to visit Florida is from March to May and October to early December, when the weather is warm, humidity is lower, and crowds are often more manageable. These months are ideal for enjoying Florida’s beaches, theme parks, golf courses, nature trails, and outdoor attractions without the peak summer heat.
Spring and late fall are especially popular for visiting destinations such as Orlando, Miami, Tampa, Sarasota, Naples, and the Florida Keys. With plenty of sunshine, comfortable temperatures, and a more relaxed atmosphere, this is a great time to experience the best of Florida, whether you’re planning a family vacation, beach escape, golf trip, or theme park getaway.
Food and drink in Florida
Food and drink in Florida are shaped by its coastal setting, cultural diversity, and year-round sunshine. Fresh seafood is a highlight, with popular dishes including stone crab claws, grouper, snapper, shrimp, and lobster, often served grilled, blackened, or in sandwiches and tacos.
Florida is also known for regional specialities such as Key lime pie in the Florida Keys, Cuban cuisine in Miami, and Southern-inspired flavours throughout the state. From waterfront seafood shacks and beach cafés to upscale dining in cities like Miami, Tampa, and Sarasota, there’s something for every taste.
For drinks, expect tropical cocktails, local craft beers, and refreshing margaritas enjoyed at beach bars, rooftop lounges, and waterfront restaurants. Food and drink in Florida are relaxed, flavourful, and an essential part of the state’s lifestyle.
Flying to Florida is easy, with multiple major international and domestic airports across the state. Key airports include Miami International Airport (MIA), Orlando International Airport (MCO), Tampa International Airport (TPA), Fort Lauderdale, Hollywood International Airport (FLL), and Jacksonville International Airport (JAX).
These airports offer frequent direct flights from cities across the US, Europe, and beyond. From the airport, Florida’s destinations are easily reached by rental car, domestic flight, or private transfer, making travel around the state straightforward and convenient.
Driving in Florida is straightforward and often the easiest way to explore the state. Roads are wide, well maintained, and clearly signposted, making navigation simple for visitors.
Drivers travel on the right-hand side of the road, and distances between cities and attractions can be long, so hiring a car is highly recommended. Speed limits are strictly enforced, and toll roads are common, particularly around major cities. For most travellers, driving in Florida offers flexibility, comfort, and easy access to beaches, cities, and natural attractions.
Trains in Florida offer a comfortable way to travel between some of the state’s major cities. Services such as Amtrak and Brightline connect key destinations including Miami, Fort Lauderdale, West Palm Beach, Orlando, and Tampa, making trains a convenient option for city-to-city travel without driving. Trains are clean, reliable, and ideal for shorter intercity journeys.
Buses in Florida provide a budget-friendly option, with services like Greyhound and regional bus networks linking cities and towns across the state. Local buses operate within cities but can be limited in coverage and frequency, especially in beach and resort areas.
