Did you know you can find Italian architecture in Florida? At The Ringling in Sarasota, Italian Renaissance design meets the Florida landscape. The museum, founded by John Ringling, features a courtyard inspired by Florence’s Uffizi Gallery, surrounded by art, history and waterfront views. 📍 The Ringling, Sarasota

You and who?👇

Ft. Myers and its surrounding islands are some of the dreamiest areas of Florida. Here’s everything you need to do on a visit… the beaches and beyond. There’s an unexpected side to @visitfortmyers you don’t want to miss! #sponsored From colorful murals and historic estates to shell museums, sunset spots, and some of the prettiest beaches I’ve seen in the U.S., this is the perfect itinerary for @visitfortmyers : 📍Save for your Florida trip! ART, CULTURE + HISTORY Ft. Myers is home to @edisonfordfl and you can’t miss the gardens and grounds of this historic property. There’s so much art around town. My favorite spot was exploring the murals around the river basin. Any seashell lover needs to check out the @shellmuseum on Sanibel. BEACHES Sanibel and Captiva Islands have some of the most beautiful beaches with sugar-sand, clear water and lots of shells (this is the seashell capital of the world!) I love Lighthouse Beach Park. EAT + DRINK @wickies_lighthouse is a great spot for lunch after the beach, followed by ice cream from @magic_bus_on_sanibel . The sunsets here are incredible and the best spot to catch them is @muckyduckcaptiva . You can grab drinks and food while you see the sunset here, and watch carefully for the green flash! STAY @hibiscushouseoffortmyers is a charming inn run by a mother and daughter (gives Gilmore Girl vibes!). It’s central located in Ft. Myers and a short walk to @edisonfordfl . @visitflorida #VisitFlorida #LoveFlorida #FtMyersFlorida #FtMyers Ft Myers Guide, Florida Tips, Florida Travel, Sanibel and Captiva Islands

Small town, big recognition. St. Augustine just earned the title of the South’s Best Small Town by @southernlivingmag , known for its history, coastal views, and streets made for wandering.

I’m pretty fluent in all of these tbh.

POV: You came to St. Pete for the beaches… and also discovered one of the coolest art cities in Florida 🎨🌴 #sponsored Everyone talks about the sunsets here (and yes, they’re unreal), but this is your sign to explore the OTHER side of @visitspc … the murals, museums, local artists, colorful hidden gems, and creative energy that make this city so special.

A few quiet moments from Naples Botanical Garden. No rush, no noise, just one of the best ways to slow things down. 📍 Naples

Cinco de Mayo, best served with a margarita and a view. 🍋‍🟩🌅
