4. Poncho
While Florida is most famous for its sun, it gets its fair share of rain as well. The summer months bring almost daily downpours. Be prepared with a rain poncho. While umbrellas are allowed in the parks, ponchos are lightweight, don’t take up much space, and allow you to have both hands free while you’re wearing them. Ponchos are sold in the parks but they’re expensive, so you can save a lot of money by bringing your own from a discount store at home.
