Located in three counties in southern Florida, the vast Everglades National Park occupies 1.5 million acres. Birdwatchers go here in large numbers in the hopes of seeing ospreys, roseate spoonbills, pelicans, geometry dash wood storks, black skimmers, and the Florida panther, two of the many endangered species found here.

Catamaran, airboat, kayak, and canoe tours of the Everglades are all within your reach. Those who would like to remain on dry ground might hire cruiser bikes or enroll in a guided tram excursion. You may also take a stroll down the Anhinga Trail, which isn't very long, and see the birds that get their name from diving for fish. And gators, abound, if that's what you're after.

You should jump out into (or into) the water as soon as you arrive. Among the many eco-adventures offered by the Biscayne National Park Institute are snorkeling tours of sunken ships and boat tours of Boca Chita Key Historic District.
