We may not get colorful leaves in our palm trees, but that doesn’t mean that Floridians don’t know how to celebrate fall… In fact, we think that pumpkin-spiced treats, spooky fun, and festive decor are even more enjoyable when experienced in the sun!
Now that the new season is inching closer, there’s no better time to venture outside and dive right into all of the autumnal activities around you! From family-friendly festivals to fan-favorite hot spots, there’s something waiting for you outside of your new home in Southwest Florida . Take a look at a few of our top picks for seasonal fun.
