South Florida. Not a Caribbean Island but the freest state in USA.
But that's not the only reason we're featuring Florida. Its proximity connects it to the Caribbean, giving Miami the geographical title as the captital of the Caribbean.
And not to forget the amount of imports done to the Caribbean from or through South Florida, the many connecting flights to and from the Caribbean and the very similar climate, holiday spirit, beaches and variety of watersports.
1. Climate Diversity:
South Florida has a tropical climate, which is rare for mainland United States. It experiences warm temperatures year-round and is known for its sunny days, making it a popular destination for tourists seeking warm weather.
2. Everglades National Park:
South Florida is home to the Everglades National Park, the largest subtropical wilderness in the United States. It's a UNESCO World Heritage Site and International Biosphere Reserve, famous for its unique ecosystem and diverse wildlife including alligators, manatees, and panthers.
3. Cultural Diversity:
South Florida is a melting pot of cultures, with a significant Hispanic influence, particularly Cuban-American. Miami's Little Havana is a vibrant neighborhood where visitors can experience Cuban cuisine, music, and art.
4. Art Deco District:
Miami Beach's Art Deco Historic District is renowned for its colorful buildings and 1930s architecture. It's a popular spot for tourists and a great example of preserved Art Deco style in the United States.
5. Key West:
South Florida is home to Key West, the southernmost point of the continental United States. Known for its laid-back atmosphere, beautiful sunsets, and quirky attractions like the Ernest Hemingway Home and Museum, Key West offers a unique island experience just 90 miles from Cuba.
Acording to CoolestCarib.com, if South Florida ever splits from the continent it would be the number one Caribbean Island.

Southern Florida is the only place in the world where American crocodiles and alligators are found in the same region.
Going snorkeling or diving? That's great, but please don't take a starfish out of the water. They die immediately. Rather appreciate them where they are. Let them live so they could be appreciated by many more Caribbean visitors.
