Itinerary
2 Nights: Fort Lauderdale
3 Nights: Palm Beach
2 Nights: Cocoa Beach
1 Nights: Daytona
2 Nights: St Augustine
2 Nights: Amelia Island
2 Nights: Miami
UK – Fort Lauderdale (2 nights): After touching down at Miami International airport, you’ll pick up a rental car and drive for an hour to Fort Lauderdale where you’ll have a couple of days to explore the boutiques, bars and beaches along the Strip. The best way to see the city, however, is by hopping on a boat cruise that goes around its vast network of waterways. If culture is your thing, visit the Riverwalk Arts & Entertainment District where you can see opera, theatre, music and fine arts shows.
Fort Lauderdale – Palm Beach (3 nights): Less than an hour’s drive north will take you to Palm Beach, which delivers all the shopping, dining and nightlife of bigger Floridian cities but at a far more relaxed and laid-back pace. You’ll have time to explore quaint stores, fine-dining restaurants, museums and historic Gilded Age mansions. With numerous golf courses and miles of sandy beaches, you’ll also be able to enjoy lots of recreational activities.
Palm Beach – Cocoa Beach (2 nights): The next leg of your self-drive holiday will take you to Cocoa Beach, which is a surfer’s haunt. You can watch the surfing competitions held off the pier or you can explore Cocoa Village, a historic neighbourhood packed with cozy cafes, quaint shops, galleries and artist studios. The Kennedy Space Center is a quick and easy drive away from here, and it’s worth checking it out if only to see the NASA launch pads or try out a flight simulator.
Cocoa Beach – Daytona (1 night): Best known for its International Speedway, which hosts races year-round, Daytona is also home to more than 400 restaurants and dozens of shopping centres. The biggest attraction, however, remains the 23-mile beach. Its hard-packed sand is just the right thickness for jogging, cycling and even driving.
Daytona – St Augustine (2 nights): After an hour’s drive north you’ll spend two days in the oldest city in the USA. Founded in 1565, St. Augustine is a time capsule of cobbled lanes, elegant historic residences and old-time workshops turned into museums. We’d recommend a visit to Castillo de San Marcos, a 17th-century Spanish fortress, and St. George Street, which is a hub of charming period buildings, antique shops and art galleries.
St Augustine – Amelia Island (2 nights): The next stop on your trip, Amelia Island will allow you to catch your breath and relax. With its uncrowded beaches, golf courses and stylish resorts, this barrier island is just the right place to unwind and enjoy simple pleasures like fishing, boating, strolling the boardwalk and lazing in the sun.
Amelia Island – Miami (2 nights): From Amelia Island you’ll drive for half an hour to Jacksonville Airport where you’ll drop off your car and catch a flight to Miami. You’ll wrap up your multi-centre holiday with two nights in the glitziest city on the Gold Coast. You can let your hair down and enjoy the nightlife, shopping, ethnic dining and endless beaches of Miami’s diverse neighbourhoods before catching your final flight back home.
Miami – UK: On your final day you will return to Miami airport for your flight back to the UK.

We cannot thank Emily at eShores enough for her outstanding service in planning our holiday to Kuala Lumpur and Langkawi next March. From the moment we made our initial enquiry online, she was quick to follow up with a phone call. Emily listened attentively as we shared our interests in multiple-centre destinations and our preferred travel dates. With her first-hand experience in one of the locations, she provided invaluable advice that helped us make informed decisions. She sent us an initial quote that included various hotel options across different budgets, allowing us to choose what suited us best. Throughout the planning process, we exchanged numerous questions and queries, and Emily always responded with warmth and patience, making us feel that nothing was too much trouble. Her approachable and supportive communication made the experience enjoyable, and we felt guided every step of the way. Thanks to Emily, we have a fantastic booking in place, complete with all transfers from the airports to our hotels organised seamlessly. We’re extremely excited about our upcoming trip without the stress of planning it ourselves. We highly recommend Emily and eShores to anyone looking to book a holiday. Thank you, Emily, for making this process so easy and enjoyable! Best wishes, Julie and Paul Jackson

We haven't taken our holiday, yet but to date our consultant, Rachel, has been fantastic! Rachel has delivered on all communication promises, always contacting us as promised. She has been more than happy to answer all questions, even daft ones, and been incredibly professional at all times. If our holiday is as good as the service recieved to date then we will be thrilled to bits.

I have only just booked my trip to Italy with eShores and paid my deposit. I hope that all will go well in September but I can't comment on that yet. However, I can comment about your travel advisor, Nick. He has been absolutely excellent throughout. I originally contacted you in November about a different holiday in Italy but had to pause proceedings when my inheritance didn't come through soon enough. Nick had designed and tweaked the trip and was so patient and helpful with my questions and changes. Then when I changed the trip in April again he was so helpful and patient. He is a credit to your company!
