Paradise in the Florida Keys

Paradise in the Florida Keys

After an enjoyable week in Orlando we packed up and headed 300 miles south to the Florida Keys.  We stayed at the Point of View Key Largo RV Resort in Key Largo.  It is a beautiful campground located on the Florida Bay.  The campground is only about two years old and is a popular spot even though it is a little expensive.  We had a site just off the beach and enjoyed a magnificent sunset every evening.  Much time was spent just sitting on the beach, relaxing and enjoying the sun and water.

We had a wonderful time exploring the sites, culture and food of the Keys.  We enjoyed many different types of food including delicious seafood at Lazy Day’s Restaurant in Islamorada and Mexican food from a food truck in Key Largo.  We spent a day at John Pennenkamp Coral Reef State Park which is a beautiful park in Key Largo.  We also took a trip up to mainland Florida to visit the Everglades National Park which is the largest subtropical wilderness in the United States.  At the park we took a wonderful boat tour of the Everglades Whitewater Bay backcountry north of Florida Bay.

This is not our first time in the Keys and I must say it gets better each time we visit.  We spent three weeks in Key Largo and would have loved to stay longer.  Before we left we booked a site for another three month stay in January.
