• Information on the underwater animals most snorkelers and divers actually see.
• Photos and information on Florida habitats and on the most common plants you will encounter.
• Brief descriptions of the region's most frequently visited parks and reserves.
Easy to carry, entertainingly written, beautifully illustrated—you will want to have this book as constant companion on your journey.

Raves and Reviews
“It contains short expert essays on Florida’s flora and fauna, geography, ecosystems, parks, preserves, and to its credit, one titled ‘Environmental Threats and Conservation Programs.’ This is a tremendous amount of information, all very useful for an ecotourist. That inclusiveness allows the traveler to carry this single guide rather than several. For academic settings, it would be useful in ecotourism programs and for training environmental interpreters and guides. Recommended. All levels.”
