Hi I am planning a trip to Orlando we are 4 people to older people 55 and 54 and two 18 year old girls. we are coming for 14 days and looking for one more thing to do other then the two big boys. I know there are lots of things to do there and looking for suggestions. we have days set aside for hotel staying looking for another park.

Sea World!

Kennedy Space Center is a nice 1-day visit.

You could buy a package deal to visit Sea World, Aquatica, and Busch Gardens.

The Atlantic Coast and the Gulf Coast are about equal distance, so you could stop in Cocoa Beach before or after the Kennedy Space Center or spend a day exploring Canaveral National Seashore. Or the gulf side, you could hit the beach before or after exploring St Petersburg, or visit DeSoto National Memorial.

Closer to Orlando I heard the Leu Gardens are nice, and there's plenty of mini-golf places, plus Sea Life and the Wax Museum. We enjoyed dinner at Medieval Times a few years ago.

Bok Tower Gardens is a beautiful place to spend a day.

Daytona Beach. Drive right onto the beach, literally, have a great time and head back.

What about river tubing at Blue Springs Park. It is lovely. Groupon and Living Social are both great places to find some fun stuff to do too!

Cocoa beach for a quiet beach. Daytona for a bit more action. There you can drive along the beach and park on the beach. There are bike rentals on the beach.

We really enjoyed a relaxing day at Discovery Cove and added the dolphin interaction. It's all you care to eat (breakfast, lunch and snacks all day long) and when we went alcoholic beverages were included. Everyone enjoyed it so much we may do it again on our next stay.

Discovery Cove for the win!

The Dali museum in St Pete.

Seaworld/Aquatica. The thrill rides and shows made it worth every penny. Doing it again this year!! We also stay for 2 weeks and I bought their 14 day unlimited park visit pass that included seaworld/aquatica/busch gardens/ waterpark@busch gardens. Also included parking pass on each ticket.
