Romantic Spots for Couples Looking for a Florida Weekend Getaway

Florida offers many choices for couples looking for a Florida Weekend Getaway. From the nightlife of Miami Beach, to the sun-kissed jewel that is Sarasota, Florida has many towns and cities that make for a romantic getaway. Far away from
Disney World and the tourist attractions of Central Florida, Florida has some great spots for couples looking for a little romance under the Florida sun (or moon).

Miami Beach

The charming art deco architecture and sun-kissed beaches of Miami Beach make for a perfect weekend getaway. Couples looking for a romantic weekend escape with a bit of nighttime excitement are sure to find Miami Beach a perfect fit. By day, you can take a walking tour of the art deco district or watch the afternoon pass by at one of Lincoln Road's many cafés. By night, Ocean Drive comes alive as the art deco district become awash in neon lights and salsa music fills the air. Along Ocean Drive there are plenty of places to have a Latin American inspired meal before dancing the night away.

Sarasota

On Florida's west coast, Sarasota offers those seeking a weekend getaway a quiet, relaxing option. In Sarasota you'll want to visit the world-renowned art collection at the Ringling Museum. Also on the site of the Ringling Museum is the fantastic waterfront home John and Mabel Ringling (of circus fame) shared and it is open for tours. And of course, as you'd expect, there is a wonderful circus museum full of relics from days gone by. Afterwards, do some shopping and grab lunch beachside in the St. Armands Circle district. Come sundown, nothing beats watching the sunset on the white sand beaches of Sarasota.
