At the recently concluded IPW 2015, Florida took the opportunity to showcase its natural side to the 1,300 trade buyers and nearly 500 international and domestic media in attendance. The coastline with the only living coral reef in the continental United States, the nation’s southernmost islands, mountains, canyons and glaciers, designated parks, preserves and seashores were among the attractions highlighted at the show.
Florida also invited IPW attendees and future international visitors to explore and celebrate natural Florida in conjunction with the 100th anniversary of the U.S. National Parks Service in 2016.
“Visitors to our world class cities enjoy fine dining, shopping and nightlife. But just beyond the tropic cityscape, Florida’s National and State Parks include beaches, waterways and thrilling wildlife. For example, minutes from Miami Beach, the scenic and wild canvas of the Everglades can be experienced aboard an airboat adventure. We encourage everyone to take advantage of how accessible our natural wonders are throughout the state,” said Paul Phipps, Chief Marketing Officer, Visit Florida.
