The Gulf Coast

The gulf coast of Florida is one the most lovely areas of the United States.

In addition to the white sandy beaches in the Tampa Bay area, many more beautiful beaches can be found run down the Florida coast.

Birds on Florida's Gulf Coast

For example, Fort de Soto Park and Ana Maria Island, just south of Tampa, have spectacular beaches.

The cities of Sarasota, Fort Myers and Naples are also worth while visiting.  You won't want to miss the Ringling Museum of Art in Sarasota Florida.

Keep an eye open for the exotic birds that live near the warm water of the Gulf of Mexico.
