# Travel Nurse Destination Spotlight: Florida

[Florida](https://advantagemedicalprofessionals.com/nurse-jobs-apply/?action=search&jobtypes=all&professions=all&specialties=all&locations=florida) offers a delightful combination of pleasant weather, outdoor activities, cultural festivities, and professional opportunities. A springtime nursing assignment in the Sunshine State is an attractive option for travel nurses looking to shake off the wintertime blues with a well-rounded and enjoyable assignment experience.

 

## Beachside Festivals and Events

Florida hosts a variety of festivals and events during the spring, celebrating everything from art and music to food and cultural diversity. Travel nurses can immerse themselves in the local community and enjoy unique springtime concerts and festivities in and around the Florida panhandle like the [Hangout Festival](https://www.hangoutmusicfest.com/).

** **

## World Famous Theme Parks

Spring is an excellent time to visit Florida’s renowned theme parks, such as [Walt Disney World Resort](https://disneyworld.disney.go.com/), [Universal Studios](https://www.universalorlando.com/web/en/us), or the far underrated [Busch Gardens](https://buschgardens.com/tampa/) amusement park in Tampa Bay. With fewer visitors than the summer months, travel nurses can enjoy Florida’s many world-famous theme park attractions and entertainment with shorter lines.

 

## Florida Marine Life and Wildlife

Spring is the prime season for enjoying Florida’s wildlife. Adventurous travel nurses can explore the [Everglades](https://www.nps.gov/ever/planyourvisit/index.htm) or encounter manatees and [dolphins](https://dolphins.org/programs) in their natural habitats.

## Miami

Head to Miami’s South Beach to take in Miami’s infamous [nightlife](https://www.miamiandbeaches.com/things-to-do/nightlife), iconic [Art Deco district](https://www.miamiandbeaches.com/l/attractions/art-deco-historic-district/2116), and sandy beaches. The culinary scene in Miami doesn’t disappoint either – we recommend exploring Calle Ocho in [Little Havana](https://www.miamiandbeaches.com/plan-your-trip/insider-guides/little-havana-guide) for a hot taste of authentic Cuban culture and cuisine.

 

## Cruise Departures

You can choose to travel to or from your Florida travel assignment like the king or queen you are, thanks to several strategically located cruise ship ports like Miami and Fort Lauderdale. Travel nurses can take advantage of these nearby ports by hopping on a (surprisingly affordable) Caribbean cruise between travel assignments.
