Is Cape Coral suitable for children?

Cape Coral is just as much a paradise for kids as it is for parents. Since most villas have a pool, it is an advantage if the little ones can already swim. The many excursion possibilities also offer spectacular highlights for children and adolescents. Of course, a visit to the popular theme parks in Orlando, for example Magic Kingdom, is the standard fare. But Florida also offers many other attractive activities for younger kids that are not well known. Older children will never forget attending a Junior Ranger program in one of the many Florida State Parks. The Lovers Key State Park at Fort Myers is one of 171 parks in Florida where you will find this exceptional offer. The children must fulfill twelve different tasks in the park, which should bring them closer to the nature of Florida. For each task completed, a park employee sticks a badge in the participant's task book. If you have completed 6 tasks, you will be solemnly awarded the "Official Junior Ranger Patch". If you have all the badges together, there is even the "Official Junior Ranger Pin" that you will receive by e-mail. If you want to get started right away in the park, you can download the task list and your personal "Junior Ranger Passport" to which the badges are glued in advance via the Florida State Parks website (https://www.floridastateparks.org/events/). programs / jr ranger program). ". A visit to the Sun Splash Family Waterpark in Cape Coral should not only be remembered by the kids. The fastest water slides in the park also demand respect from the adults. However, many amusement parks are not open all year round. So that you do not stand in front of locked gates like the Griswolds in “Vacation”, you should first find out about this via the respective websites.

By the way: Children enjoy the time in our vacation homes at a significantly reduced price. In some villas children up to 6 years are even free of charge.

Checklist: The Road to the "Official Junior Park Ranger"

• Download the task list and Junior Ranger Passport on the Florida State Parks website.

• Inform one of the park's employees.

• Have each parked task confirmed by a Park employee with a badge.

• Receive the "Official Junior Ranger Patch" for six successful tasks.

• Achieve the "Official Junior Ranger Pin" by completing all 12 required tasks.

• Scan Passport with all badges and ID and email to info@FloridaDEP.gov. The "Jr. Ranger Pin "will then also be sent by mail.

I want to explore the numerous canals and waterways in Cape Coral by boat. Can you help me with this?

Florida is not called the Sunshine State for nothing. Although Germany has experienced some warmer summers in recent years, we can not keep up with Florida. Even in the winter months, the 20 ° C is regularly reached in the southern areas - where Cape Coral is located. In the summer, the daytime temperature is almost consistently beyond the 30 ° C mark. If you like the ocean or the pool in the sun, Cape Coral is the place for you. At just under 26 ° C, the Gulf of Mexico almost reaches the warmth of a bathtub in the summer. According to wetter.de, the sun shines in the south of Florida at an average of at least 7 hours a day. In Germany, the corresponding comparison is just over 4 hours.
