Have a roaringly good time on a Gulf Coast holiday

Families enjoying Florida villa holidays on the Gulf Coast can get up close to some of the biggest creatures to have walked the earth at Dinosaur World.

Located around 20 minutes from Tampa, the attraction is home to over 150 life-size dinosaurs hiding amongst the trees.

Each model comes with explanatory signs, giving visitors information about different species and how they lived.

Dinosaur World could be a great place to take children for a fun and educational day out, with numerous activities on offer.

For example, youngsters can become palaeontologists and take part in a fossil dig, enjoy a subterranean picnic in the specially-designed caves or take a tour of the Skelton Garden.

There also a dinosaur museum on site displaying everything from life-sized dinosaur eggs to claws once belonging to predatory raptors.

Families renting Gulf Coast villas in Bradenton will be able to drive to Dinosaur World easily.

Bradenton boasts some beautiful white sandy beaches where families can relax and sunbathe, as well as some excellent bayside restaurants.

The resort is also ten minutes away from Sarasota, where holiday makers will find numerous amenities such as cinemas, theatres, shops and restaurants.
