Reservations are recommended at the campground, especially during the winter and spring months. The summer...

Re: Fort De Soto Park, Florida – A Tropical Utopia
This is a beautiful beach. Is it a daft question to ask if there are alligators around? I'm Australian, and our more northern beaches get huge crocodiles as well as sharks, so I'm not quite sure if the same goes for alligators in Florida!

Hi Jessica! While it is not impossible, it is quite rare to see a gator at this beach, I only know of one time that a gator was ever spotted there, and that was only a 3.5 ft long one. It is much more likely that you'll see a shark before seeing a gator

Re: Bob Graham Sunshine Skyway Bridge , Florida
Thanks Samantha. Some great shots with great memories. On my Tours of the US. I've spotted so many "Kodak Moments" that I should have a million more memories. I do wish the US had more stops for photo opportunities and Picnic Spots like the UK and in Europe. And all those covered bridges too. I have enough pictures in my mind to write a book. Just wish I could draw from memory.
