exploring the coral reefs. Sixteen Places chapters cover the entire

the Keys in the south. Evocative accounts of the state’s history
and culture combine with lively de*ions of the main towns and
cities, all illustrated with full color photographs. Color maps
throughout help you get around, and the travel tips provide all the
