THE ULTIMATE FLORIDA PLAYGROUND
For the young and young at heart
A vacation in the Orlando area is guaranteed to be full of fun! Think theme parks, outdoor adventures, shopping up a storm or dinner, drinks and dancing the night away. Looking to get up close (but not so personal) with hundreds of alligators? This is the place.
Visit Daytona Beach, famous for their beaches and motorsports. View a rocket launch from Florida’s Space Coast. See bioluminescence from a kayak or see majestic sea turtles nesting. There is such a diverse range of activities that you'll have to come back time and time again to experience them all.
Titusville and the Daytona Beach areas are a short drive from Orlando but still close to all the attractions, making them the ideal locations to snap up exchange weeks.
Let's play!
