The Everglades

South east Florida and the Everglades

A first timer might believe Florida is 90 per cent theme parks and golf resorts, the Sunshine State attractions relentlessly plugged by the travel brochures. But it is easier than you think to forget about ‘Mickey’ and his mates when you visit south east Florida and the Everglades, going alligator spotting in the Everglades, cruising down the Florida Keys in a convertible with a warm breeze nicely messing your hair up or even parading your new plastic surgery among the bodies beautiful along Miami’s famed South Beach.
