Bahia Honda State Park has something quite uncommon for the Florida Keys. It’s got a beach. Plus a truely beautiful one as well. Add to it great camping sites and you have the formula for a Florida Keys camping wonderland. Let’s see why.

Although the Florida Keys are islands, naturally made beaches are very exceptional indeed. Why? Largely because the turquoise waters that surround the Keys are so tranquil, the beach doesn’t get a chance to build up. Bahia Honda has, no doubt about it, the best beach in the Florida Keys, and quite possibly the loveliest in the Sunshine State.

Swimming is quite a popular activity at Bahia Honda. The calm turquoise seas are warm, being in the upper seventies to the low 80s a good amount of the year. And the waters are quite clear. Although the beach faces out to the Atlantic Ocean, unless there is a storm out to sea, the waters are calm.

Together with swimming, snorkeling is a big draw to Bahia Honda. The same peaceful, clear turquoise waters that invite swimming are great for exploring the undersea kingdom. Plus, if you’d like to have a treat, take a snorkeling tour from Bahia Honda out to Looe Key to visit the coral reef.

Kayaking, canoeing and boating are always on the list of fun things to do at the park. There is a small marina plus a ramp for boats. If you’ve somehow misplaced your own boat, you are able to rent a kayak from the park concession. The calm waters are great for exploring the waterways around the island, particularly on the Gulf side.

Don’t forget Florida Keys camping. From tents to RVs to renting one of their seaside cabins, all sorts of camping are available at the park. Here’s a caution: phone ahead to reserve a camping site or especially one of the air-conditioned cabins. Because as you may imagine, a beach cottage in paradise has a bit of a waiting list.

Bahia Honda State Park is located in the lower Florida Keys, just south and west of Seven Mile Bridge. Just one visit and you’ll understand why they call the Florida Keys the American Caribbean. Or just call it Paradise.

So come on down for a visit. The weather is fine and the natives are friendly. And once you’re here, you will have to agree that it’s paradise found at Bahia Honda State Park in the Florida Keys.

The Gold Coast, located in the southeast Queens land, is Australia’s leading Golf holidays destination. With World Heritage rainforests, international nightlife and casino, 7 miles of golden beaches, shopping and theme parks- it is a stylish and world class holiday destination.The Gold Coast Golf, situated in the sub-tropical area of the southern hemisphere enjoys the sunshine and warmth all year round. Contrary to the Northern hemisphere seasons, Australian seasons have the average temperature of 25 degree Celsius in summers and 15-degree Celsius in winters. You can expect more than 300 days of sunshine every year, thus, making the Gold cost the most reliable golf playgrounds.

Beyond that, family and business-friendly resorts and miles of lush professional golf courses are sure to thrill any sporting enthusiast, while nature lovers can appreciate the grandeur of the natural surroundings. Come to watch the sun sink below the red rock valleys each night, and marvel at the colossal cliffs of exposed earth from the terrace of one of Arizona’s numerous luxury golf hotels.

On the other hand some courses favor open expanses, if that’s what suits your fancy. Many courses take advantage of the ponds and lowland marshes that are “standard equipment” on a barrier island. For example, the Sea Pines-Ocean Course is actually a Certified Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary. These and many others make for a perfect Hilton Head golf vacation.

In fact, readers of Golf Digest include the Island among the top ten best golf resorts — the courses are that well designed. So make the rounds and don’t get stuck on just one course. Each offers something unique to keep you on your toes and thrill you with its natural beauty. There is forested countryside, breathtaking ocean views, and natural lagoons, lakes and rivers.

Let the rest of the family lounge on the beach while you retreat to one of the Island’s 26 golf courses. Or make it a family affair; there are courses and holes offering challenges to all skill levels. That includes courses that have been designed by some of the most famous architects in the world.

Shopping: Take a break from the dessert heat and splurge a little with some shopping at one of Arizona’s 20 high end malls featuring everything from Banana Republic to Cartier. Or stray a little from the designer path, by stopping by one of the traditional Western trading posts selling authentic Native American crafts.

What makes Toronto so special in my opinion is this collection of ecclectic neighbourhoods, organically grown residential areas that have history, character and vibrant street life. One of these neighbourhoods is the Annex.

I started my discoveries of the Annex just south of Casa Loma, headed underneath the railway tracks on Howland Avenue and entered this popular area. One of the first sights that came into view was the Royal St. George’s College, an Anglican private school for boys that is the choir school for the Cathedral Church of St. James.

Once arrived on Bloor I made my way to Bathurst Street past another Toronto landmark: Honest Ed’s, the landmark discount store opened by Ed Mirvish all the way back in 1948. Another landmark, the Metro Theatre, is apparently the last o movie theatre left in Toronto. Further west I moved into the Korean area west of Bathurst. It was time for a late lunch so I decided to sample a vegetarian platter at Lalibela Restaurant, a popular Ethiopian restaurant on Bloor Street West. A huge platter featuring a combination of split peas, lentils, chick peas, cabbage and collard greens combined with the typical Ethiopian bread really hit the spot.

After a very filling meal I walked back almost all the way to Spadina Avenue and admired the many boutiques and specialty stores. I discovered “hemp beer”, all sorts of ethnic giftware, vegetable and fruit stores, futon stores, funky restaurants and delicatessens and a whole lot more. Entertainment institutions such as Sneaky Dees, the Montreal Delicatessen, Future Bakery and the Brunswick House are just a few of the dozens of eateries and entertainment places that thrive in the Annex.
