Get out and enjoy the sun
There are many ways of enjoying the sun in Orlando. Whether it’s playing world-class golf courses on an Orlando golf holiday or tennis at the numerous clubs, enjoying the peace of freshwater fishing, surfing the broad beaches or experiencing the thrill of NASCAR racing, there’s plenty to do while on holiday in Orlando. There's also Disney's Wide World of Sports complex, where you can enjoy everything from baseball, football and fishing to your choice of water sports.
Golfing
You’ll be playing in the shadows of PGA Tour superstars when you tee-off at any one of the famed golf courses designed by the likes of Arnold Palmer, Jack Nicklaus and Greg Norman. In fact, the readers of Condé Nast Traveller magazine voted Orlando’s Omni ChampionsGate and Grande Lakes courses into its Top 100 places to play in the world. You’re in good company when choosing Orlando for golf holidays.
Before you leave for your Orlando golf holiday, book a round at the Windermere Country Club, home to one of the top golf courses in central Florida. You’ll get everything you need, including club hire, use of the house facilities, lunch, time at the driving range and cart hire.

Tennis
There’s more to sports in Orlando than golf holidays. Florida’s year-round summer weather has also made it the country’s home of professional and amateur tennis. Not only are there first-class tennis facilities, you can take lessons in the city’s tennis academies too.
Surfing
Just a short drive from Orlando you’ll find the best surfing beaches on the Atlantic coast. Daytona Beach boasts 37 kilometres of uncrowded beach, and Florida’s Space Coast, better known for the Kennedy Space Center, is the home of the world-famous Ron Jon Surf Shop and Craig Carroll’s Cocoa Beach Surfing School.
Fishing
Once you’ve had your fill of Orlando’s many attractions, it’s easy to spend some time out fishing in the region’s parks, lakes and rivers just outside of the city. Bass are in abundance in this area, and you’ll find local guides to take you to the best spots.
NASCAR Racing
Nearby is the Daytona International Speedway, where crowds convene to watch wildly popular NASCAR stock car races. But don’t just watch – in Orlando you can take excursions that let you experience the thrill of riding alongside a professional race driver. Or, if you’re brave, drive around the speedway yourself.
