Understand Miami &
the Keys
Rising sea levels and gentrification are changing the physical face and civic spirit of
South Florida.
From conquistadors to the Cuban Revolution, we look at the past that shapes
South Florida's present.
Beyond the South is South Florida (Miami, the Everglades and the Keys): immig-
rant port, marshy frontier, America's offshore island chain and cultural melting pot.
Local palates demand both five-star ambience and home-cooked meals - although
'home' is a relative term down here…
Flat, yes. Boring, no. Swim, cycle, boat, dive and discover South Florida's outdoor
extravaganza.
Prehistoric reptiles prowl beautiful wetlands, mangrove islets shimmer in the sun-
set, and we explore the local environment.
