When temperatures drop up north, it makes sense to head south for some fun in the sun. But South Florida is now a year-round destination – offering great weather all twelve months thanks to balmy breezes; cultural activities, world class entertainment and dining. The beaches and Michelin restaurants are a little less crowded and there are excellent values to be found at hotels, restaurants and spas.
