Discover Sanford
A lively Florida destination where world-famous attractions meet small-town charm.
Central Florida Connection
Located just north of Orlando, Sanford combines the best of both worlds: close proximity to Walt Disney World, Universal Orlando Resort, and SeaWorld with its own laid-back, historic character. Visitors can spend the day at theme parks, then return to a walkable downtown filled with restaurants, breweries, and waterfront views.
Downtown and Beyond
Sanford’s historic district along Lake Monroe offers a welcoming blend of history and modern energy. Cobblestone streets lead to galleries, cafes, and live music venues, while scenic Riverwalk connects parks and green spaces overlooking the water. It’s an easy place to explore on foot or by bike, with plenty of spots to pause for a drink or sunset view.
Arts, Nature, and Adventure
The area offers a mix of experiences beyond theme parks. Explore the Central Florida Zoo & Botanical Gardens, take an airboat ride on the St. John’s River, or visit nearby natural springs for swimming, kayaking, and wildlife viewing. Sanford is also home to community events year-round, including artwalks and food festivals that showcase the local culture and creativity.
Culinary & Community
Food lovers will find plenty to enjoy in Sanford’s dining scene. Locally owned restaurants serve everything from Southern comfort dishes to international flavors, and the city’s craft breweries have become gathering spots for both residents and visitors. Downtown markets and outdoor festivals bring people together over live music, food trucks, and regional specialties.
