Visitors from around the world come to Florida for the beautiful beaches and colorful culture, but locals know that our amazing state is also packed with incredible American history. Whether you come here to explore eras past, or just need a break from the sunny shores, here is a handy guide to some of the top destinations for history buffs!

With such a vast background, it would be impossible to include every single amazing place, so we’ve limited this list to three major historical locations; St. Augustine, Cape Canaveral, and Marianna. These three areas were chosen because they each have several spots to explore and could serve as an excellent day trip, weekend getaway, or whole vacation destination!
