Day Trips - Beyond Orlando

Beautiful 72-degree water year around. If you are luck enough to visit mid-November to march, you'll see hundreds of manatees! (you can't swim then, but it's still super cool)
Bring a picnic lunch and make it a day!

Yet another spring to check out. This one has the popular Old Spanish Sugar Mill Grill and Griddle House, operating in a 100-year-old replica of the original 1830s sugar mill and famous for the option to cook your own pancakes at the table!

Seeing gators is "just another day" for us Floridians, but for out of town-ers, it's a cool spot. You can even zip line right over them!

It's almost 2 hours away, but super cool experience. You drive your car thru the safari. They have some shows to see if you time it right, "experiences" you can sign up for, and even an airboat ride add-on.
