The Harbor Waterfront Resort

The area has plenty to offer, from fishing and skydiving to cultural activities. Skydive Lake Wales is a good option for active days: you could do your first tandem skydive, learn to skydive through the accelerated freefall programme, do your 10,000th jump or search for a training base. Visitors should also explore the Bok Tower Gardens, a National Historic Landmark, garden and bird sanctuary that's had over 23 million visitors since 1929. There's also the Busch Gardens Tampa Bay family adventure park with attractions based on Africa including rides, a zoo, live shows, restaurants, shops and games, and the Depot Museum, covering the history of Lake Wales. Other options include taking in a show at Lake Wales Little Theatre, playing golf at one of the several nearby courses, and investigating a few of Florida's fine white sandy beaches.
