Daytona Magic Of Lights In Florida
What are the best drive-thru light shows in Florida?
While the Daytona Magic of Lights is perhaps the best drive-thru light display in Florida, there are a few others that are worth mentioning for the season. For instance, The Holiday Fantasy of Lights features a three-mile drive with tons of animated displays and trees. Meanwhile, the Space Coast Lightfest in Melbourne always has a ton of holiday cheer with over three million lights. Check out the entire list of drive-thru Christmas displays in Florida that you should explore this year.
How much snowfall does Florida get each year?
While there are plenty of things to do at Christmas in Florida that are brimming with holiday cheer, snow-related activities are likely not on the list. There is usually light snowfall in the northern panhandle of the state every so often, but annual snowfall is not likely. In fact, even with light dustings, the average annual snowfall in Florida is zero. So, this is great for those looking to get away from the cold harsh winters, but not so great for anyone looking to add sledding to their winter bucket list.
Should I go hiking in winter in Florida?
While there may not be much snow in Florida, this actually bodes well for anyone who wants to spend time outdoors in winter. Sure, exploring a Christmas light display in Florida is a fun winter outdoor activity, but have you ever hit the hiking trails? Since Florida stays relatively warm during the months of December through February, many residents and visitors find time to be outside. Ocala National Forest has a ton of hiking trails to explore when the weather is cool, or visiting Paynes Prairie Preserve State Park will show you a bevy of wildlife. Check out this list featuring epic hiking spots in Florida to start your winter hiking list.
