The Florida Keys - that's the collective name for the row of tiny islands that make up the southern most tip of the USA. You might be familiar with Key Largo, or Key West, but there are over 100 islands making up the Keys, all joined together by an amazing 126 miles of road and 42 huge bridges.
A tourist, diving, and sport fishing Mecca drawing over a million visitors each year, daytime temperatures in the Florida Keys are pleasantly affected by ocean breezes that keep temperatures moderate year-round. There is no natural beach. The offshore reef eliminates the surf action needed to carry in the sand and the shore is sharp with coral shards.
Key West is a lovely old historic town. There's a combination of interesting architecture, wonderful restaurants, and bars to explore. Then there are those Florida sunsets, exciting air boat rides, the snorkelling and diving!
