A Florida Family Destination with so much to See and Do

 

Punta Gorda / Englewood Beach is a wonderful gem situated just a short drive from Tampa and a reminder of why families from the UK have come to love Florida. Why not see the other side of Florida and experience nature without breaking the bank.

 

Beach time, sunshine and 5 Family Adventures to experience in Punta Gorda / Englewood Beach.

 

Glass Bottom Rentals

 

There’s nothing like a serene paddle through crystal clear water, but it’s even better with Glass Bottom Rentals because you can see all that compelling sea life through the bottom of the kayak! Offering guided tours and rentals of clear and regular kayaks, canoes, and standup paddleboards, so you’re sure to find your perfect paddling vibe.

 

Peace River Wildlife Center (PRWC)

 

PRWC works tirelessly to rescue and rehabilitate injured or sick wildlife and provides a forever home to animals who cannot be released. Of course, learning about wildlife is always worthwhile, but getting to see the animals up close is even more exciting, and well worth the family trip .

 

Iguana Land

 

With over 230 species, Iguana Land is the world’s largest reptile experience. Featuring everything from snakes and, of course, iguanas, to tortoises, turtles, chameleons, monitors, and more, this is a fascinating trek for anyone. Animal encounter experiences, rescue animals, and if you are up for it some up-to-close and personal time with fascinating creatures.

 

Babcock Ranch Eco-Tours

 

For a fun (and funny!) mix of history and nature, try a Babcock Ranch Eco-Tour. Your guide will share intriguing stories and insights while you enjoy a ride on a “swamp buggy” (converted school bus) and see all kinds of animals, from historic Cracker Cattle and alligators to deer, wild turkeys, birds of all kinds, and more.

 

“Any Beach at Sunset”

 

Nothing puts an exclamation on a day and sets up a great night, like watching a sunset. Beach time is a must, and all our beaches are the perfect place to watch those daily sky shows. This is Florida at its finest, and whether it is a family enjoying the ending of the day after a long relaxing beach experience, or an intimate romantic cocktail as you watch the gorgeous sunset, you will be set up for the next day and a new set of adventures in Florida’s best kept secret.
