Group: 13

(Southern Florida, US Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico)

Visited from Jan 29, 2023 to Feb 10, 2023 in Trip 7

This group will be an ideal winter trip.

It starts with stops in southern Florida, including a boat ride to Dry Tortugas. This is followed by a stop in the one site where English is not the primary language: San Juan, Puerto Rico. It ends with five days in the U.S. Virgin Islands.

This trip will be a welcome relief from the cool temperatures of northern Florida in winter!
