BEST ONE TANK TRIPS IN FLORIDA
We know many of you are limiting travel during these uncertain times. Although we continue to feature trips and places to visit, we are not encouraging you to visit them until it is safe. We want to support Florida's attractions and businesses during this situation, and hope you will plan to visit them when things get better. In the meantime, enjoy them virtually from the comfort of your home.
One tank trips Florida residents and tourists can afford and enjoy are the best way to see the Old Florida that still remains on the back roads.
It's also a good way to protect yourself against the rising cost of gas. You can plan Florida day trips that can be handled on one tank of gas.
One tank trips Florida style on our website are designed to show you the lesser known Florida from the back roads, yet still give you plenty of things to do.
For example, in the early days of Florida - before the railroads came - most transportation was on Florida's many rivers and lake chains along with the shallow lagoons behind the barrier islands on both coasts.
Most of these waterways have roads alongside them with plenty of
scenic views and lots of interesting old water oriented towns to explore
on one tank trips Florida wide.
The one tank trips Florida and day trip section of our website is organized around the 8 geographical regions of the state.

All of our recommended one tank trips Florida style are designed to keep you on paved roads and never too far away from restaurants and gas stations.
Another thing to remember about our state is that no matter where you are in Florida you are never more than 60 miles from salt water.
You can visit most any beach in Florida on a tank full of gas.
We also try to keep you away from the interstate highways where the majority of Florida residents and tourists quite often turn the major roads into massive slow crawling parking lots.
It's so much more fun and relaxing to tool along leisurely on many of our rural two lane tree canopied roads.
Each Florida day trip section has clearly marked road maps showing the recommended route so that you can plan your trip in confidence.
We mark the routes out on standard Google maps, and they are easy for you to print out and use on your trip.
Florida has a wonderful state park system. Camping is only one of many attractions these parks offer. Canoeing, kayaking, nature trails, picnicking and nature presentations are just a few of the things you can enjoy.
Florida day trips and one tank trips can be key ingredients that make affordable vacations in Florida entirely possible.
