LONDON, May 17, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --

As the summer draws nearer and holidays are being booked, tourists are faced with the ultimate holiday dilemma - what to do when they arrive. One of the most popular family holiday destinations is Florida, and this state is filled with activities that are great for all the family. Cosmos Holidays have chosen their top 5 things to do and see in the Sunshine State…

1. The theme Parks

A clear choice of attraction for Florida is the huge array of theme parks and a family trip to Florida wouldn't be complete without visiting at least one of them! It's not all about rollercoasters though; waterparks, parades and fireworks are all exciting attractions when visiting Orlando. Convenient Orlando holiday packages from Cosmos give families the time to experience as many of the amazing theme parks as they want at their leisure.

2. Everglades National Park

Florida is not just about theme parks. For the nature and animal lovers out there, a trip to explore The Everglades National Park is an absolute must. The Everglades cover just over 2,350 square miles and are home to some incredible wildlife. A range of activities such as camping, hiking, bird watching and canoeing are available to make your family's experience at the park unforgettable.

3. Key West

A trip to Key West is definitely an experience not to be missed when holidaying in Florida. Home to many beautiful beaches, several with the option of joining in with some watersports and beach games, Key West also boasts some incredible marine life and an amazing natural tropical forest and botanical garden.

4. Sports

Sports are a huge part of Florida's lifeblood and going to see a game, whether baseball, football, hockey or even wrestling is a great family activity. Even if sports aren't really your thing, the atmosphere at a game is infectious and will soon have the whole family leaping to their feet.

5. Miami vice

For a bit of culture during your visit, take a trip to Miami. Here you can visit one of the incredible museums that Florida has to offer. Miami is home to the Miami Children's Museum and Miami Museum of Science, which are great for kids of all ages. For those who love animals, Zoo Miami is a truly unforgettable and must-see attraction. One of the first 'free-range' zoos in the country, the animals don't live in cages, but live with other animals that they would live peacefully with in the wild.

Cosmos Florida Holiday deals mean that there has never been a better time to visit the Sunshine State and to get a taste of the culture and nature, sports and beautiful beaches and of course, the theme parks!
