The Everglades
Find-the-fauna
There are 1.5 million alligators in Florida, and in the Everglades, sometimes nearly half of
them seem to be within a 100 yards. More than that, the Everglades can turn anyone into
an avid amateur birder: more than 350 species call the swamps home.
Outdoor Adventures
Even a ramble along raised wooden boardwalks can feel like an adventure. Jump into a
kayak or canoe and let yourself be swallowed by the Everglades' watery wilderness for an
unforgettable - yet surprisingly easy - experience of a lifetime.
Roadside Attractions
Bizarre food, strange legends of mythical beasts, offbeat roadside stands, monuments to
scorned love? Yep, all these and then some pepper the land in this part of the world, which
happily marches to its own quirky beat.
