Come, vist and
stay "just one more day" --
It's the story that counts!
Biscayne National Park, located off the southeastern coast of Florida,
set aside in 1968, protects islands, water, coral reefs, plants, animals,
and marine life.
Biscayne National Park is a unique place on the southeast edge of the
North American continent - - 284 square miles of islands, water, and coral
reefs. People come to see the plant and animal life that abounds in this
subtropical climate. Birds are common, gliding and soaring in the blue
sky. There are mangrove trees reaching into the sea and tropical hardwoods
on higher grounds. But it is the sea with its spectacular marine life
that dominates this watery paradise.

degree in biology from Southern Utah State University. Wayne's many years
of living in these unique preserves has deepened his appreciation of atural
wonders.
