Lake Okeechobee
Lake Okeechobee spans over 700sq miles and is the largest lake in the state. This is the perfect location to get your fishing, boating, and picnicking in. Hiking is also a very popular activity in the area if you’re looking to get in some exercise. And after spending your time out on the lake, visit the friendly town of Clewiston, which includes fishing guides and resorts.
You can tour a local farm or visit the annual Sugar Festival if you visit during April. While in the area, check out the town of LaBelle. Each February, it hosts a Swamp Cabbage Festival to celebrate the pioneer food that grows from the state’s tree. And at the northern part of the lake, you’ll find the town of Okeechobee. It has a campground along the Kissimmee River and is best known for its Speckled Perch Festival and Okeechobee Cattlemen’s Rodeo.

Love it there!

A weekend is not enough time to spend in St. Augustine, proper because there is so much to do. We went to the historic district for a whole day and still did not see everything. Then there was the beach and shopping. Let’s not forget about the restaurants either. Can’t wait to go back.
Florida is a place I avoid. Politicians have made Florida a place that hates non religious people. I would never recommend Florida to anyone.
