Just had a look on google maps and it says 33 minutes. It’s definitely worth the drive.

A lot of my days out above.
Pancake at the old sugar mill, and a dip in the springs. Tubing or other state / national park activities. I like spirit too. Slightly more expensive than some but a very memorable experience. Aim for early in day as more wildlife around. I-fly. Escape rooms World of citrus quite good depending on ages. But if not been before KSC would be top of my list. |

If you fancy a seaplane trip Tavares (could be combined with Mount Dora) is another idea.

Harry P Leu gardens are nice and when we went we were able to look round the house. Any one of the State Parks or more than one as they are all lovely in different ways, one of our favourites is De Leon State Park and take an eco boat ride followed by a visit to the restaurant and cook our own pancakes on the griddle in the middle of the table (only time in his life dh does any ‘cooking’). We have also enjoyed visits to Wild Florida and Gatorland.

Wow spoilt for choice! Thanks everyone
Ds really fancies the airboat and it’s good to know you don’t need to go all the way to the Everglades for this
