Things to Do in Florida's Rural Counties
VISIT FLORIDA staff
Off the beaten path. Off the grid. Offbeat. Out of the ordinary. Out in the country. On the backroads. Small town. Unknown. Undiscovered. Unexpected. Rural. Historic. Outdoorsy. Green. Relaxed. Laid back. Private. Quiet. Different. Charming. Escape.
To many visitors, all that may not sound like Florida. But it is.
The Sunshine State has all that, and in abundance, in counties and cities that may be new to the ear. Each is a new travel experience, with a wealth of things to do.
