Hang Gliding
If you’ve ever been to Disney World’s EPCOT park, you probably know of the flight simulator ride Soarin’ Around the World. Soarin’ is a 3D hang gliding experience that takes you gliding over historic landmarks worldwide.
While Soarin’ is a great Florida activity, what if we told you that you could experience it in reality? At Wallaby Ranch in Orlando, you can glide above the city of Orlando and bask in the natural beauty around you. There’s so much to see from thousands of feet in the air!
Parasailing
A common excursion many tourists do in Florida is parasailing. While many enjoy the sun by walking along the coast and drinking a refreshing beverage in the sand, you can bask in the sun from up in the sky. Parasailing tests your fear of heights and allows you to fly with the birds, giving you the thrill of a lifetime.
Airboat Tours
If you’re traveling with your family or someone with youngsters, an airboat tour is the perfect adrenaline-pumping excursion to try in Florida. You will rapidly travel through the wetlands, see rare sightings of birds, and wave hello to the lurking alligators.
Year-Round Hunting
Whether you travel to North, Central, or South Florida, you can bet there’s an opportunity to hunt. Florida has stricter laws on animals you can hunt year round and where you can hunt them. So, it’s always best to check the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conversation Commission to avoid breaking laws. However, you can find your next game in any part of Florida, from Burmese pythons to white-tailed deer to wild hogs.
