John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park, Key Largo

Experience Florida’s marine wildlife at its best at John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park. As America’s first undersea park, the 70 square mile paradise and its whole host of exciting activities offer a truly unforgettable experience. It’s no wonder it’s one of Florida Keys’ top attractions.

Get up close and personal with the creatures of the sea with a snorkelling or scuba diving experience or take your family on an adventure as you canoe or kayak through the park’s waters. You could even rent a powerboat and explore the mangrove-lined waters at pace while your daredevil co-travellers take a dip. If all this sounds a little too adventurous for you, why not just soak up the beauty of Florida’s sealife with a relaxing glass-bottom boat tour? Alternatively, you could take in the surrounds with a spot of fishing. Of course, there’s always the beach too – an ideal place to relax and soak up the sun after a busy day of events.
