Best Time to Go

Lunch lines at school are replaced by lines at the popular theme parks as families begin their summer vacations. Temperatures will not reach their peak highs until July and August, but you'll definitely feel the summer heat even with the increasing frequency of afternoon showers. A great way to beat the heat is at one of Florida's water parks!
