Universal Studios Florida and Universal's Islands of Adventure are approximately 105 to 120 miles from Putnam County — a 2-hour drive that's well worth it for Harry Potter fans, thrill-seekers, and families looking for a world-class theme park experience. With Epic Universe now open, Universal Orlando Resort has become one of the most compelling theme park destinations in the world.

Epic Universe: The New Reason to Visit Universal
Universal's Epic Universe, which opened in 2025, added five entirely new themed worlds to the Universal Orlando Resort — including a Nintendo World, Ministry of Magic (Harry Potter), How to Train Your Dragon, and more. It is the largest theme park expansion in Florida history and has dramatically increased demand for Orlando-area transfers from Northeast Florida.
