Duh! If you’re in Daytona, of course the beach is a must-see. With over 23-miles of white sand and a lively boardwalk, there’s sure to be something to do on the beach. Vehicles are allowed to drive on the sand during daylight hours and you can have fun playing at just about any water sport you could imagine. - Botanical Gardens –
The Port St. Lucie Botanical Gardens is a great stop even in the winter. There are orchids growing and butterflies fluttering; a nice stop for an hour stroll.

What To Pack
The air is usually humid in Florida because of how close it is to the water. Travelers often wear sweat-wringing clothes to combat the humidity. If you wear contacts, bring an extra pair if you’re wearing them while in the ocean; salt water can corrode the lenses. Remember sunblock and your sunglasses. Plan out your activities beforehand to know what sports gear to bring. Don’t forget to stay hydrated, pick up a case of water bottles before your trip so you can grab and go and save a couple bucks here and there buying drinks from vendors. Be sure to capture the highlights of your trip! See how you could win a GoPro camera from us on our Sundance Vacations News site. Can’t make it all fit in your suitcase?
