Things to do in Florida
- See above video
Notable communities
Daytona Beach
Daytona Beach actually used to be full of parties, but that might have changed.
Everglades
Only on TikTok.
Fakahatchee Strand
Here lies the ghost orchid, which grows without even having to touch Earth. Despite being leafless, it still has photosynthetic sugars.
Fort Lauderdale
A BFDI x II meetup, swimming museum, and Lionel Messi himself. What more could you ask for?
Gainesville
Here lies the University of Florida.
Jacksonville
Kind of trashy, but still has the best beaches in Florida.
Kennedy Space Center
Home of Launch Party from Rhythm Heaven, filmed with precision from Launch Complex 39A.
Miami
Good vibes, but with lots of love, money, drugs, and... Rule 4.
Orlando
YO MIKE, DOES GOD LOVE US?
|
That's a good question, Spike. God is all loving as well as all powerful. He would never do something if he didn't believe that it would help the human race.

add butterfinger to orlando |
St. Petersburg
Not Russian, because the city is spelled with St., not Saint. Also dolphins.
Tallahassee
Here lies Florida State University. I don't really like their Seminole mascot, being one of the many mascots that appropriate Indigenous culture. In this case, the word Seminole refers to a group of Indigenous people who seeked refuge in Florida in the 1700s. Seminole is more of an exonym. The endonym is yat'siminoli.
West Palm Beach
Abbreviated to WPB. Sound familiar? Anyways, The Square is a very walkable part of the city that everyone enjoys. We love walkable neighbourhoods.
Passenger rail
For a Sun Belt state, Floridian passenger rail actually has some potential. Brightline is a privately-run high-speed rail service shuffling passengers at up to 125 mph between Miami and Orlando via Cocoa. Though Brightline trains stop at the airport in Orlando as opposed to its tiny downtown, at least there's something. In terms of commuter rail, Tri-Rail and SunRail are the state's two operators, based in Miami and Orlando respectively.
