Dispelling a Myth: Is It Too Hot and Humid to Glamp in Florida?

When many people think of weather in the state of Florida, they often imagine hot, humid weather near coastal swamplands and beaches. While hot and humid weather is perfect for people wanting to spend time swimming in pools or the ocean, this weather may not seem ideal for people wanting to go camping. Staying in a tent in hot and humid weather instead of an air-conditioned hotel room by the beach may seem uncomfortable.


However, what many people don’t realize is that Florida is a large state with many different climates at different times of the year. When people think of the intense humidity and heat, they are often thinking of South Florida in the summertime. What they don’t realize is that area such as Central Florida are often much cooler and less humid than the Southern coast. Although Florida is typically warm year-round, temperatures can still fluctuate seasonally. Winters are often much cooler, making Central Florida an ideal destination for tourists interested in experiencing the natural beauty of Florida by camping or glamping.


Glamping is the best accommodation option in Central Florida, as many glamping tents are often equipped with air-conditioners for any days that get to be on the warmer side. However, people who are glamping may find that they won’t need it with how comfortable the weather is in this region, especially if visiting in the winter. Central Florida is known for its mild, cool, and dry winters, making it the perfect place for a glamping experience. Spending time in the great outdoors is much more enjoyable in places with low humidity and without excessive heat.


Even in the summertime, when the weather is warmer, Central Florida manages to have a more comfortable climate than South Florida. The Southern Coast of Florida is often sweltering and humid, which is why so many tourists spend time swimming, even if swimming areas are flooded with crowds. Tourists who choose glamping in this area can enjoy hiking, canoeing, and a wide variety of other outdoor activities to enjoy in the less humid region of Central Florida. The forests can provide plenty of shade, and Central Florida has lots of natural waters, other than the ocean, that are great for swimming and exploring. Glamping is much more peaceful and serene than staying in a luxury hotel in the popular tourist cities, but for half the cost and with the same luxuries a hotel room can offer.


So, to answer the question behind the myth: No, it is not too hot and humid to glamp in Florida. The idea that all the regions of Florida are hot and humid all year round is a myth that many people fall victim to. Glamping in Central Florida is excellent due to the ideal weather and myriad of activities available for tourists. Escape the hot, humid, and crowded destination cities that tourists often flock to and choose to go glamping in Central Florida to experience a less-frequented area of the state where you’ll find comfortable weather, refreshing outdoor experiences, and the serenity and peacefulness of the Florida countryside.
