Captivating Things To Do During The Summer In Central Florida | 2022

Summer in Central Florida never seems to really go away. While some simply aren’t interested in our hot and humid temperatures from May-ish to September-ish, we truly believe in taking advantage of this oasis we find ourselves in.

The average temperatures during the summer months will range from the high 80’s and, down to the mid 70’s on some of our cooler days. As most of us know, Florida is notorious for those summer afternoon showers.

So, be sure to grab your umbrella, put on a pair of shorts, and pack up your sense of adventure. In this article we’ll be going over some of the best ways to embrace the Florida heat and have a ton of fun while you’re doing it.

Summer In Central Florida: Winter Park

As we are native to Winter Park, it only makes sense for use to put Winter Park at the top of our list. Obviously, there are a ton of fantastic escapades that await throughout Central Florida, but you cannot skip over a trip to Winter Park. Before you head out to theme park row, make sure to take a stroll down Park Ave. Stop for ice cream at one of our multiple ice cream parlors, or do a bit of light shopping and grab lunch at one of our world class restaurants. Maybe a simple picnic under the shade of the trees in the park is more your speed.

Do not pass up the opportunity to take the Winter Park Scenic Boat Tour. Soak up the sun and the relaxing beauty of Lake Osceola. This massively popular, hour-long, cruise takes you on a meandering tour through three of the seven lakes and two, man-made rivers of the Winter Park water chain. The Winter Parks homes, wildlife, and foliage truly earn the Scenic Boat Tour the title of “captivating”.

The Notorious Wheel At Icon Park

You and your family will have non-stop fun for hours on end. Take in the shop, restaurants and more through this open air, 20-acre, park that highlights the wheel.
