Book Description
With so many famous sights and over-advertised attractions in Florida, travelers may inadvertently find themselves caught in the tourist route through the state. Hidden Florida offers a better option. While it tells readers how to best enjoy the top spots in Miami, Orlando, and the Keys, it also leads them to lesser-visited destinations that reveal the natural beauty and local character of the Sunshine State. For example, travelers can sleep with the fishes at a former research lab that has been transformed into a unique lodge located 22 feet beneath the surface of the sea. Or they may choose to feast on Old Florida favorites like gator tail, frog legs, and catfish at a backcountry eatery. From snorkeling and surfing to camping and hiking, there are abundant opportunities for outdoor adventures at the150 beaches and 129 parks detailed in this guide. The author describes over 400 attractions at over 50 locales across the state and reviews dining spots including 125 fresh seafood restaurants and 22 Cuban eateries. Each title in the Hidden series also offers readers the comfort of detailed maps, internet information for each listing, author favorites, suggested itineraries, and walking and driving tours.
