Florida Keys
These amazing set of islands (keys) from Key Largo to the southern most tip of Key West are linked by 42 bridges scattered along 126 miles. Key West is closer to Cuba than it is to the mainland of America. The Atlantic Ocean and the Gulf of Mexico sandwich the Keys in the middle. An absolutely fabulous place to swim/snorkel ( How would she know??) and discover the local flora and fauna. Al is now an expert in this department.
Bahia Honda State Park, Marathon
Thumbs up from us....this Park has the best location to view the sunset over the original Flagler Bridge. In 1912 the first steam train chugged through Henry Flagler's '7 Mile Bridge' but unfortunately it was destroyed by a hurricane in 1935.
Today you can walk along a section of the bridge to get a panoramic view of the park and keep an eye on the massive sharks.
The fishing is out of this world, mahi-mahi, sailfish, mackerel, grouper, snapper, marlin - it's all out there! Allen snorkelled around the coral reef and came face to face with some huge fish - well they looked big underwater.
Sunset are spectacular
