Holidays in Plantation

Plantation is located close to Miami in southeast Florida. As it is set back from the coast, Plantation holidays present an entirely different world from the hustle and bustle of South Beach, with charming old buildings, friendly locals and lush countryside. Even a short trip will reveal to holiday-makers why the local saying holds true; 'the grass is always greener in Plantation.'

Planning Plantation Holidays

Given its subtropical climate, Plantation experiences warm temperatures all throughout the year. To make the most of the sunshine, come in the sweltering summer months. However, for those less accustomed to the heat, winter is also a great time for Plantation holidays, as there is less rain, clear skies, and moderate temperatures around 25 degrees celsius. So, any time of year, set clocks to EST time (UTC-5) on Plantation holidays. Transport is of no concern to visitors on Plantation holidays. Miami International Airport is only a short taxi, bus or car ride away, and is one of the busiest airports in North America, receiving daily direct flights from the UK, European and throughout the USA. Once in Plantation, it is easy to get around by local buses, bicycle-friendly roads, taxi or on foot.

Plantation Highlights

To experience the best of Plantation's buzzing community and lively spirit, head to the vibrant Midtown area, which is constantly in-flux and changing with the times. However, nearby visitors can still find relics of Plantation's past, with some majestic 19th-century buildings still standing intact, as well as a notable Historical Museum which is well worth exploring. Alternatively, for a wider view of the area and glimpse of its history, an aerial flight tour over the surrounding Everglades area (the original name of the plantation after which the town was named) is an unforgettable experience.
