Central Florida Polk County Attractions and Things to Do
1. The Polk Museum of Art |
First, talk to the park ranger at the Pine Springs Visitor Center to get there. There is a gate that you may need to borrow a key for. You will need to drive out of the park to get to the gypsum dunes, leaving and heading west on 62/180 for 14 miles, and then take a right (head north) on private road 1576, 21 miles close to Dell City. |
2. Lower Green Swamp Preserve |
If you're a nature fan and looking for something outdoorsy to do in Lakeland, Florida, get over to the Lower Green Swamp Preserve. Another former portion of a cattle ranch and farmland has been turned into a nature preserve; the land here has been 'restored' to what it would have been like before being settled and used for agriculture. |
3. The Polk County History Center |
There's a surprising amount of art and culture to soak up in Lakeland. This Florida city also has a lot of history to learn about. And you can learn all about it at The Polk County History Center, located inside a historic 1908 courthouse with all its neo-classical grandeur. |
4. Florida Air Museum |
The Florida Air Museum has all sorts of interesting displays of aviation history. From unique, one-of-a-kind designs to antique flying machines and warplanes, you'll get to see it all here at this surprising museum. If you're interested in planes, this will be one of the most unmissable things to do in Lakeland, Florida. |
5. Food at Munn Park |
If you're looking for one of the top things to do in Lakeland at night, you should go to Munn Park. It's a very local spot. Named after the city's founder, Abraham Munn, this park isn't just a chill spot to stroll around and take a breather; there are various free seasonal events here. |
6. The flowers at Hollis Gardens |
If you're on a budget and looking for one of the top free things to do in Lakeland, don't worry: You can make a beeline for Hollis Gardens and unwind amongst nature. The manicured botanical garden, with over 10,000 flowers, is located near Lake Mirror in Downtown Lakeland. |
7. CATCHING MORE CRAPPIES |
Crappie fishing is often associated with open water, cane poles, live minnows, and brush piles. Still, by the time autumn arrives, the popular pinfish have switched their preferences to shorelines, shady docks, and small jigs. The main reason is that young-of-the-year baitfish and sunfish use ports for cover, especially those whose owners have deposited brush piles and other fish-holding attractors under them. |
8. The sea at Clearwater Beach |
As I stepped into the museum, I couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement coursing through my veins. The collection of historic aircraft is a sight to behold, and among them stands one of my favorites: the legendary P-51 Mustang. This iconic aircraft played a crucial role as a long-range bomber escort during World War II, protecting American and English bombers as they braved the skies over Germany. |
9. Culture in Lakeland, Florida |
After soaking up all that art, it's a 10-minute walk to the beautiful Hollis Gardens. There are countless flowers, plants, and trees to admire in this manicured garden. If you're feeling hungry, you'll get to sit in the outdoor garden setting if you choose to eat at Garden Bistro, with a selection of different foods. Another 10-minute stroll takes you to Florida Southern College. |
10. Lake Hollingsworth |
Lakeland's Lake Hollingsworth is one of the area's largest lakes and is a premier recreation attraction for outdoor-minded locals and visitors. A scenic walking trail skirts the lake's perimeter and winds past a marina, a college campus, and pristine natural habitats. |
