Florida is the land of the vacation. It is known for its beaches. Its theme parks. Its parties. But Florida is so much more than that. It is a state rich in history and nature. Floria is home

Alaska is called the Last Frontier for a reason. It is a massive state with a diverse landscape that ranges from temperate ranges to the Arctic tundra. It has North America’s tallest mountain along with a whole host of mountain ranges. The National Parks of Alaska protects millions of acres of this remote landscape.

There are currently 11 National Park Service Site in Florida and one associated site.
