Itinerary
Distance: 256km (160miles)
Collect your motorhome and head east to the Atlantic, make a stop at the world famous Cape Canaveral and the Kennedy Space Centre where if you want to, you can take a tour to see the launch areas, see the giant rockets, train in spaceflight simulators and if you’re lucky, meet a veteran astronaut.
No visit to Florida is complete without a visit to The Palm Beaches and Boca Raton, so follow the coast south to the stunning Juno Beach area and make sure you take time to visit the Loggerhead Marine Life Centre during sea turtle nesting season (May-August), where they can take you on a guided walk to watch the turtles up close.

Continue south towards Palm Beach and on to Dania Beach. In Palm Beach you’ll feel like a celebrity as you amble through the Worth Avenue shopping district, dubbed the ‘Rodeo Drive of the East’ and make sure you allow some time to see some of the mansions including Henry Flagler’s, which is now one of the top sightseeing attractions of the area. Your final destination for today is the North Coast where the sands of Dania Beach are just a few minutes away.

As you continue your journey south Key West you will cross many bridges including the famous seven mile bridge. We recommend Boyd’s Key West Campground as it’s just five miles from the Keys’ southernmost tip and as it’s in an idyllic spot and make sure you don’t miss the sunset from Mallory Square.

Today you’ll be heading to the Everglades National Park where we recommend taking an airboat tour which is a great way to experience this unique subtropical ecosystem. Glide across the grassy water while looking for wildlife like alligators, fish, turtles and wading birds in their natural habitat.
We suggest staying at the Flamingo Campground but recommend that you pre-book it well in advance using the National Park Service website where you can also learn so much about this amazing environment.
