Living in Florida…

We live in the place most people want to vacation, so let’s take advantage of what the tourists flock to Florida for…

The weather is wonderful and now is a great time to visit some of the attractions our area offers.  There are even some discounts available to Florida Residents, if you go, don’t forget to ask! 

The large attractions Busch Garden, Universal Studios and Disney World all come to mind when you think of Florida attractions but there are other lesser-known but just as entertaining and even educational attractions.  Even some of the older roadside attractions which made Florida a must go destination in the 1950’s and 1960’s make a entertaining way to spend a day.

There is always fishing to wile away an afternoon or morning (don’t forget you do need a license for both saltwater and freshwater), just fish off the pier at Bayport or Jenkins Park or you can charter a fishing trip or maybe take “The Thunder” (includes bait, tackle and license) out on the Gulf for the Day.

Play golf at one of our many area Golf Courses, Hernando County is home to some great courses and scheduling your play for later in the day will reap you big savings on cart and green fees at many area courses.  Check for other discounts and golf packages at the courses you like throughout the area.

Get back to Nature, go hiking on the many trails throughout Hernando County and The Nature Coast, rent a kayak or canoe and paddle down our scenic rivers or visit our preservation areas and get back in touch with nature.

Hernando County is rich in history.  Did you know that there are still brick roads in the county?  Find out more by taking the walking tour of Brooksville.  See the historic homes, the 90 year-old courthouse and the brick paved streets.

Visit our museums and parks, take advantage of some of the cultural events, go to the festivals and fairs in our area.  Living in Florida with it’s many things to do, there should never be a dull moment in your life.  You could be on the go every day and still have things left to see, but don’t forget you will still need some time to relax and just enjoy the sunshine here in the Sunshine State.
