Surfing holidays in Florida is one of the finest destinations in the world. Whatever your standard of surfing Florida is one of those rare places where alluring natural beauty melds harmoniously with a 21st century lifestyle - and even better, it comes at a great price! Florida provides you with miles of soft sand fronted by consistent 3-4ft surfing waves, water temperatures which hardly ever drop below 62F and air temperatures rarely dipping below 72F, meaning that for most of the year it’s a board shorts only destination.

Florida has some great Piers where world-class surfers rip the waves breaking off the sand banks near each pier - and there’s also the option of great restaurants, shops and excellent fishing when you want a break from the surf. Imagine… you may be walking down to the surfing beach and see an eagle soaring across a brilliant blue sky or the dramatic silver bullet of a space rocket streaking into orbit from nearby Cape Canaveral; out in the surfing a pelican may swoop close by or a dolphin swim past you; and on the waves you may even spot Kelly Slater busting a few hot moves – this is the multi world champion’s home break, after all!
