A trip to the Sunshine State of Florida should include forays to the hundreds of miles of white sandy beaches. Surfing, sea-kayaking, wildlife observation, bird-watching, scuba-diving and swimming are all possible along Florida's coast. Trips to the Everglades, the Keys or Cocoa Beach--near Cape Canaveral--are viable side trips. RV travelers have several beach-front RV parks to choose from in the Sunshine State.
