The Florida Keys

Situated at the foot of Florida are the Florida Keys. This is an archipelago of about 1700 islands. They begin at the south-eastern tip of the Florida peninsula, about 15 miles south of Miami, and extend in a gentle arc south-southwest and then westward to Key West, the most westerly of the inhabited islands.

The climate of the Florida Keys is defined as Tropical and the temperatures can be a few degrees higher than other parts of Florida.

The length of the Florida Keys is around 120 miles from the point where you join the keys to Key West.
