Florida vacations spots?

Thanks Guys!

Mark, for my wife and I, beach, restaurants, a little shopping maybe. The kids will want to go to some attractions and activities, but they can drive a couple of hours if necessary. Just your typical week in the Sun vacation. Thanks!

I would say for you and your wife, Naples is awesome, and if you include the facts that Marco Island is right next door and Sanibel and Captiva are within an hour drive, you get great beaches and restaurants, not to mention the amazing car museum, The Revs Institute, located in the middle of Naples. For the kids, it's a little less exciting, lol, however there are some water parks not too far, and an airboat ride through the everglades is always a pretty cool experience. You can also rent a boat and go out to Keewadin or one of the other islands that are a lot of fun.

Agree. We went to Marco last year with my daughter and son-in-law (27 yr olds) and had a great time. Rented a boat and spent the day on Keewadin - it was the best part of our trip.

Sanibel and Captiva were hit hard from the hurricane...it will be a few years before they are back on track. Ft. Meyers beach was also impacted....

Sarasota area is really nice...good combo of beach, ocean, inter-coastal and mainland options.
