Join Sarazar and friends on a thrilling RV journey through Miami, the Everglades, and iconic landmarks, culminating at the Ultra Music Festival.
Epic Florida RV Adventure: From Miami Beaches to Space Exploration!
As summer begins to wane in sunny Florida, the warmth of adventure is still heating up the journey through the Sunshine State. Today, we celebrate the exhilarating RV road trip of Sarazar and friends, Benni and Max, who traversed more than 1,500 kilometers, experiencing the diverse beauty of Florida. This escapade takes them from vibrant Miami to the serene beaches of the Florida Keys, with stops that capture the very essence of what makes this state a unique travel destination.
The adventure kicks off in Miami, a city renowned for its endless beaches and lively urban life. From there, they venture into the captivating wilderness of the Everglades, a haven for unique wildlife and striking landscapes. But the allure of the journey doesn’t stop there; as the group travels over the scenic bridges of the Florida Keys, they embrace the stunning coastal views and vibrant camping sites along the way. With every stop, they uncover a spectacular underwater world, ideal for snorkeling and diving enthusiasts.
Magical Orlando and Space Exploration
A highlight of their road trip is a stop in Orlando, where the magic of world-famous theme parks comes alive. However, their most profound experience takes place at the Kennedy Space Center, a crucial part of America’s space exploration narrative. Visitors to the center can delve into the history of space travel, and for those in the U.S. Military—active, retired, or veterans—a $5 discount on adult and child tickets is available. This offer is accessible both on-site at ticket kiosks and Will Call, or through online purchase after ID verification on KennedySpaceCenter.com. This can be a smart move for families or groups—up to six guests can benefit from the discount during a single transaction.
The Kennedy Space Center is not just about admission tickets, which cost $75 per person, plus a $15 parking fee. It offers various attractions like the impressive Vehicle Assembly Building and a guided bus tour through mission-critical areas. With winter and early spring being the ideal times to visit for pleasant weather, summer does bring in lower crowd numbers, albeit with increased heat and humidity.
Camping Along the Coast
A fantastic spot noted by many RV travelers is the Jetty Park Campground located in Port Canaveral, known for its cruise ships and rocket launches. The campground offers a mix of site options to fit every need and budget, with rustic sites starting at $27 in the summer and semi-improved sites going for $36. For those wanting a bit more comfort, improved sites with water, electricity, and sewer facilities are available for $54 in summer. This camping gem, situated along the Atlantic Ocean, ensures that visitors have a prime spot for both relaxation and adventure.
For dog owners, there’s a fence restricting dog access to the beach, but worry not! The nearby Lori Wilson Dog Park in Cocoa Beach allows for convenient walks without hassle. To keep pet safety in check, RVers often recommend utilizing devices like the Nimble Pet Safety Temperature Monitor, ensuring that furry friends are cool and comfortable while exploring.
Concluding their adventure, Sarazar and his friends immerse themselves in the pulsating beats at the Ultra Music Festival, where they join forces with the famous German DJ duo, Pan-Pot. The energy of the festival embodies the spirit of Florida’s nightlife, marking a perfect end to an unforgettable journey through the state.
As we reflect on this adventure, one can’t help but think—there’s something to be said for the thrill of discovering new landscapes, diving into thrilling activities, and making memories along the way. With a backdrop as stunning and diverse as Florida, the opportunities for exploration are simply endless.
