While looking for things to do in Florida May 13, 14, 15, 2011 many events and activities you'll find may include being in or around the water. May in fact is National Water Safety Month and is a great time to make sure you and your family are prepared for all the water related fun ahead. If you're planning a trip to the beach, a quick trip to this website might also help insure your day in the sun is safe one. While on the subject, please check out the new list of water parks in Florida recently posted on Florahome USA linking you directly to some of Florida's favorite places to make a splash. For the landlubber in you, there are plenty of other things to do in Florida May 13, 14, 15, 2011 without even getting your feet wet. Golf courses both mega and miniature are on the list with the TPC at Ponte Vedra Beach offering the pros one of the most unique challenges in the sport. If a smaller course is more your game, Adventure Landing in St. Augustine is getting ready to celebrate National Miniature Golf Day on the 14th. For those who've been watching Ralph Macchio- the original Karate Kid showing the true heart of a champion on Dancing with the Stars, there's another special event going on in Florida this weekend no Karate Kid should miss. Karate kids of all levels will be at the Gator Nationals in Daytona Beach, FL May 13 - 14 but TaeKwonDo kids are also in luck with the 2011 Florida TaeKwonDo Association Championships taking place May 14th in Palm Beach Gardens. For everyone else there are plenty of festivals, shows and other things to do in Florida May 13, 14, 15, 2011. And don't worry if you can't afford the gas - May is also National Bike Month!
