Florida cruising information

19 June 2005

QUESTION:
I am looking for areas around Florida We can go with our boat (20Feet) with the family for fishing, snorkeling and docking if necessary to stay overnight like a vacation resort or a day to travel and have fun. Thanks

ANSWER: There are lots of guides you can buy. Go into just about any marina ship's store and you can find fishing guides, marina and facilities guides, and more.

For example, here's a description of the Florida Embassy Guide "The waterways of the East Coast, West Coast, Keys and Okeechobee. Locations and information on 1,100 marine facilities, detailed navigation advice, aerial photos, destination highlights, fishing and diving sites, bridge tables, and GPS waypoint." This $45.00 guide is quite detailed, but there are others that are more local in their scope. Also, have you checked your Sunday paper? Often there is a column covering boating with local information and hints and "happenings".

Enjoy your boat.
