Things To Do
Scenic Boat Tour
The Winter Park Boat Tour leaves every hour on the hour and it is a must see in Winter Park! This tour is fun and entertaining as it takes you through five of the Winter Park lakes connected by canals. Your boat captain will keep you entertained as he shares the history of Winter Park, the museums, and local celebrities/athletes that own homes in the area. Another fun fact, this was Marco's very first boat ride.
The Charles Hosmer Morse Museum of American Art
While strolling along Park Avenue, this is a great spot to stop in and see the world's largest collection of Tiffany Glass.
Stroll on Park Avenue
We can't recommend Downtown Winter Park enough! It is just blocks away from the wedding venue and reception and it is also home to the rose garden where Hannah and Marco were engaged. Downtown Winter Park is fondly known as "Little Europe". Park Avenue is a stunning brick-paved street filled with cafes, boutiques, sidewalk dining, and art galleries. Your visit here will not be complete without a stroll down this avenue.
Wekiwa Springs
If you are feeling warm on this holiday weekend- take a quick, 30 minute drive over to Wekiwa Springs! This is a natural spring where you can swim, kayak/canoe, or snorkel in crystal clear water. It's surrounded by native Florida wetlands filled with stately cypress trees, live oak, and palms. It's a great spot to see a variety of Florida wildlife.
New Smyrna Beach
New Smyrna is considered the best beach by Central Florida locals. It's an hour outside of Winter Park and boasts white sand beaches and good waves for surfing. It also has great shopping and fun restaurants to eat at, such as The Breakers, Norwoods, and The Garlic.
Walt Disney World® Theme Parks
They say that Disney is the happiest place on Earth- feel free to check out the theme parks while you are here! There are also some Fourth of July firework displays at Magic Kingdom and EPCOT!
Disney Springs
A popular tourist stop for shopping and dining! You can ride the monorail and see the firework displays without going into the theme parks.
Universal Studios Florida
Universal Studios is great for your more adventurous theme park crowd- there are a variety of roller coasters and simulated thrill rides here.
