VISIT FLORIDA and The Weather Network have teamed up again to bring Florida sunshine to tourists with a second season of the highly successful docuseries Wanderlust: Florida.

Season 1 of Wanderlust: Florida was viewed more than 11.7 million times on broadcast alone, outperforming estimates by 79 percent. The docuseries was phase two of a larger multifaceted campaign, which included digital, social, broadcasts and contests, and reached more than 42 million consumers.

As one of The Weather Network's most-watched programs and with its viewers’ appetite for learning, a second season was a natural fit to continue to shine an unforgettable light on Florida's off-the-beaten-path destinations and hidden gems told by local Floridians.

 The second season, which will consist of two 18-minute-long episodes, launches this Sunday, February 20 at 10:00 p.m. ET on The Weather Network and will take viewers on a scenic road trip through Northwest Florida with stops in Tallahassee, Panama City Beach, South Walton and Pensacola.

(The Weather Network). “I am excited that through our collaboration with VISIT FLORIDA and our production partner, The Creator’s Bureau, we have the opportunity to continue to provide our viewers with new virtual escapes of the hidden gems and unique adventures that Florida has to offer.”
