Florida, USA
Florida Keys
A hundred miles of islands where the best days are usually spent on the water, not driving past it.
The Overseas Highway makes the Keys easy to drive and easy to under-experience. The stretches worth stopping for are not evenly spaced, and the difference between a good day and a forgettable one is often a single decision about where to get in the water.
Bahia Honda, Pigeon Key and the old Flagler bridge are the kind of places where the history and the swimming are the same stop.
