Within an hour of downtown Orlando:
- Altamonte Springs
- Celebration
- Kissimmee
- Lake Buena Vista
- Sanford
- Clermont— About 20 miles west of Orlando on Florida Highway 50, hosts another Central Florida landmark, the Florida Citrus Tower. The tower celebrated its 50th anniversary in December of 2006.
- Winter Haven— About 30 miles south of Disney off US27. Home of the "Chain of Lakes" network of 16 canal-connected lakes, great for fishing. Also home to Cypress Gardens Adventure Park. www.cypressgardens.com
A bit further, but good daytrips or next destinations include:
- Cocoa Beach— World-famous beach for surfing, but very crowded on summer weekends and holidays like Memorial Day, 4th of July, & Labor Day.
- Cape Canaveral— Home to the Kennedy Space Center and location of space shuttle and rocket launches year round (these are visible throughout central Florida, but are more spectacular in Titusville and a trip is recommended for children and first time viewers). Launch schedule: www.kennedyspacecenter.com/launches/scheduleStatus.asp
- Daytona Beach— Home of NASCAR and a popular beach.
- Canaveral National Seashore 24 miles of undeveloped shore; central Florida's only nude(in one spot) beach; 1000+ year old Indian relics; 58,000 acres for hiking, horseback riding, and biking; but no camping or concessions.
- Melbourne (Florida)/Melbourne Beach— Historic downtown and a great but "less touristy" beach than most on the Space Coast, beachfront camping nearby.

- Ocala National Forest— Great hiking and camping. Home to many fauna, including black bears and the Florida panther.
- New Smyrna Beach— Great beach, but most prone in Florida to shark attacks
