Florida

My home State

Atlantic, this is the beach at Ormond by the Sea
No, I was not born here....but , I feel like it is my home State, since I have lived most of my life here. I don't think I would want to live anywhere else.
I love the beaches, haven't been anywhere that had nicer ones.
Many people come here for Disney and the rest of the Orlando theme parks, which is fine of course, but I would be happy here without any theme park, just because of the beaches.
The beach on the Gulf coast is different from the beach on the Atlantic coast, and the beach in the Keys is different from both.
The Gulf Coast beaches have clearer water and almost no waves, the Atlantic is better if you want to surf, or fish. The Keys are great for snorkeling with the reefs and the very clear blue water.

Florida Nature

Florida has many great State and local Parks to camp and hike in. Many of them you can see lots of wildlife, be careful that it won't eat you....( watch out for gators).
There is also Everglades National Park in the southern part of the State.
My favorite forest is the Ocala National Forest.
Favorite State Parks: Anastasia , Bahia Honda ( Keys)
Other favorite Parks : Juniper Springs ( Ocala) , Fort Desoto ( St. Petersburg), Deleon Springs

 St. Petersburg in Florida sounds rather amusing for Russians! Well done VT-job. Thanks Silke for sharing!

 I was in Orlando a long time ago, at Disneyworld. That's the extent of my experience in Florida...
