Summer is coming to an end, but before the kids go back to school maybe you're thinking of taking one last vacation and you don't need to go far as Florida has been named one of the best states for summer road trips.
WalletHub put together a list of the best and worst states to take a summer road trip and Florida made the list! Doesn't really surprise me seeing that we have amazing theme parks, beautiful beaches, great state parks and fun coastal towns on both sides of the state.
Wallet Hub compared all 50 states and looks at key factors like costs, safety and activities to determine the most fun, scenic and affordable road trip destinations.
Top 10 Best Road-Trip Destinations For Summer:
Summer is almost over, but it's not over yet! One of these 11 Florida Resorts With Water Parks is the perfect place to take a family vacation, according to Travel + Leisure, before the new school year starts and the day-to-day routine is back in order.
Not everyone is a fan of the beach. Some find it dirty and itchy and the sand can be hard to handle with small kids who might like to eat it. I speak from experience with my daughter.
If you're more of a "pool" family, you're in luck. These resorts, found throughout our Sunshine State, are the perfect destination for a last minute family vacation before summer comes to a close. I can't think of a better way to cool down in this 90 - 100 degree humid heat than going down waterslides or floating in a lazy river. A drink in hand gets bonus points. I'm thinking a strawberry daquiri or a raspberry margarita will do. Anything frozen. Or maybe a mango or black cherry seltzer? Or a cold beer with a lime? Now I'm thirsty and I've gotten way off track. Back to it.
So, if you're looking for a quick getaway, you'll definitely want to check out the list of 11 Florida Resorts With Water Parks.
