Enjoy the Central Florida weather, usually 75 F or higher, by visiting one of over 170 golf courses, or seek some peace paddle boarding on one of Orlando's beautiful lakes. A refreshing dip awaits you in one of thousands of amazing pools, like the lazy river and zero-entry swimming pools at Universal's Cabana Bay Beach Resort, or the luxurious adults-only pool at the Four Seasons Resort Orlando at Walt Disney World Resort. In weather this nice, it's a shame to stay indoors.
