New family and children's activities program at the World Golf Village Renaissance Resort in Florida.

(PRWEB) September 13, 2002

ST. AUGUSTINE, FL (September, 2002) – The World Golf Village Renaissance Resort has launched a unique program that enables families to enjoy organized daily excursions to nearby St. Augustine. While the resort encourages family explorations, they have also created the Little Legends program to allow children ages four to 14 the opportunity to participate in supervised, fun-filled activities while parents enjoy other activities at World Golf Village or the surrounding area.

 Little Legends is scheduled and priced per session (discounts available for siblings) and is designed to be flexible for family and individual preferences. Little Legends activities include supervised swimming at the Renaissance Resort or at the exclusive, oceanfront Serenata Beach Club, breakfast and movie mornings and playground activities. In the event of rainy weather, children can spend the day at the resortÂ’s indoor “tree house” while playing games, watching movies or reading childrenÂ’s stories.

In addition, children or entire families can choose from a variety of regular excursions into St. Augustine or have the resort’s recreational department customize their own. Popular excursions—including lunch or dinner and refreshment breaks—include:

-A visit to the oceanfront, Serenata Beach Club featuring a 4,000 sq. ft. heated family pool with 12 ft. cascading waterfall and a kidÂ’s play pool.

-A Pirates and Indians Tour with tales of Timucua Indians living along FloridaÂ’s First Coast more than 8,000 years ago, stories of the many pirates who sailed the seas off St. Augustine and a visit to the oldest masonry fort in North America, the Castillo de San Marcos;

-A visit to world-famous RipleyÂ’s Believe It or Not Museum and a sight-seeing boat cruise along Matanzas Bay aboard Victory III;

-An exploration of rich maritime past at the St. Augustine Lighthouse and Museum, a working lighthouse that preserves and interprets the history of the restored light station built in 1876;

-For those on the wild side, an Alligator Farm Safari that brings guests through St. AugustineÂ’s Alligator Farm to meet the 23 species of crocodilians found on the planet; and

More-

-None other than a visit to the local Family Fun Factory where kids and adults can choose from paint ball, video games, batting cages, miniature golf, go-carts and more.

 Â“Traveling with families is a popular choice for many visitors and we want to enhance the overall experience for guests of all ages, making their stay at the World Golf Village Renaissance Resort as memorable as possible,” said Jeff Johnsen, general manager.
