Travel Nurses Winter in Florida

Believe it or not Florida is one of the largest states and has so many different environments, not just coastlines and beautiful beaches. There are natural springs with beautiful clear water that stays between 68-72 degrees year round. There are too many lakes to even count, as well as inland rivers, for fishing and water sports if you don’t want to swim in the ocean. There are plenty of opportunities for outdoor activities when the weather is a little cooler.

There are major cities with large populations and medical centers including Miami, Orlando, Tampa, Jacksonville, Pensacola just to name a few. Travel nurses and professional healthcare travelers are always in demand in these facilities as there are more jobs than there are qualified caregivers to fill them.

There is NASCAR in Daytona Beach and major sports teams in Jacksonville, Tampa, Miami and Orlando if those activities are of interest to you. Of course all the major theme parks are represented in the Orlando Metropolitan area: Islands of Adventure, Disney Parks, Aquariums, Wax Museums, Universal Studios and the newest Orlando Entertainment Complex on I-Drive.

Needless to say, tourism abounds and there are always new people to meet if you like to get out and about. There are many festivals in the winter and the snowbirds (people who live in Florida in the winter and migrate north in the summer) populate the state from about December/January to March/April or even longer.

Outdoor activities are popular in the winter months as the weather is usually warm, with very few days of temperatures below 50 degrees F. Camping, hiking, 4-wheeling, golfing, zip-lining, boating, kayaking and so many more fun activities can be enjoyed in the winter months when the temps are more hospitable to us humans and not so hot like it is in the summer.
