Book Description

Explorer's Great Destinations January 5, 2009

Find the perfect spot for your beach blanket as you follow Trish to spectacular sun-splashed locations the crowds have yet to discover. With this guide, travel planning Florida's Gold Coast is a breeze.

This is the ultimate guide for discriminating travelers who desire authentic experiences rather than canned entertainment—the natural beauty and rhythms of destinations instead of carbon-copy hotels with commonplace restaurants. Organized from Palm Beach south to Key West, this updated edition looks beyond the obvious and shares the unique, off-beat side of Florida. It even includes eco-friendly tips and environmental information about the region.

Author Trish Riley has scoured the area for legendary chefs and local harvests, historic downtown districts, cozy inns, and sizzling beaches. Whether you enjoy camping out or savoring fine linen sheets, bird-watching or deep-sea fishing, here you will find the most up-to-date advice to make your trip unforgettable.

Find out why the Explorer's Great Destinations series is “consistently rated the best guides to the regions covered. Readable, tasteful, appealingly designed. Strong on dining, lodging, culture, and history.”—National Geographic Traveler

This review is from: Explorer's Guide Palm Beach, Fort Lauderdale, Miami & the Florida Keys: A Great Destination (Second Edition) (Explorer's Great Destinations) (Paperback)
The book provides a basic overview of restaurants,tourist spots, etc. and it is in an easy to follow format. It lists sights, restaurants, etc by location but it really does not offer any unique ideas or tips.
