We have all heard that off the Florida Keys there’s a place called Kokomo. But at
Gift Works Plus, we know the Florida Keys is
really where you wanna go to get away from it all.
For a mix of relaxing, tropical, and historic vacation, the Florida Keys, a string off islands off the coast of Florida, make the perfect getaway. Here are the top five places you need to visit on your vacation in the Keys!
-
John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park and the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary Right off Key Largo, this state park is home to the only living coral reef in the continental United States. You can scuba dive and snorkel to experience the beauty of sea life. Or, if you’d rather stay dry, they have glass-bottom boat tours for under the sea viewing!
-
Bahia Honda State Park The beaches at Bahia Honda State Park are known for being some of the most beautiful in the world. It also makes for a fun place to stop and do some snorkeling, kayaking, or camping.
-
Hemingway Home For literature lovers, visiting the home of American author Ernest Hemingway is a must! You can tour his house, flower gardens, and see the 40-50 six-toed cats wandering about that descended from Hemingway’s kitty Snow White… because why not?
-
Dolphin Research Center Everyone loves an adorable playful dolphin, and you can watch the bottle nosed dolphins play here! The “dolphinarium” in Grassy Key is a series of saltwater lagoons carved out from the shoreline where dolphins and sea lions live.
-
The Sourthernmost Point in Continental US A large cement buoy with the words “90 miles to Cuba” painted on it marks this point. Definitely makes for a great photo opportunity and a unique souvenir idea!
