hey guys long time no see but i was wandering about some must see stops from around georgia to the Florida Keys. I am going with my family this summer and i am planing it. We will stop at the Georgia aquarium and am mostly looking for more in the saltwater theme as that is the theme of the trip. Cool isnt there that one beach with just tidepools as far out as you can see? I would love to see the natural reef in the natural reef parks. Cool any info would be awsome

DEFINANTLY snorkel in the keys.
You could try the georgia aquarium if your trip takes you near Atlanta (just steer clear if you don't like HUGE crowds).
if you are into the camping scene, try Long Key, or Grassy Key (on of those) which has a WONDERFUL camping ground, with each site on the waterfront. The waters of the camping grounds aren't a coral reef, but it is a sand flat, and has some of the most interesting critters I have seen. If there are kids going with you, just be careful because there are stingrays, sharks, and barracudas. None of them will bother you though, and most of them are to small to bite, as long as you stay in shallowish water.

If you go to the keys.
MM 77 Robbies marina. Feed the tarpon for a buck. There are hundreds of them and free.
Great PICS it is bayside.
Snorkel at pennypack park (SP?) google it. Very good! I think it is around Key Largo or a little south.
stop anywhere south of MM 80, park the car and walk out and snorkel. Must have red flag on buoy. They cost about $10 for flag
Dolphin researc center MM ~60 in Marathon. Great tour and info on Dolphins
Theatre of the Sea Islamerada MM 80. Very good Dolphin park and shows.
Key West Aquarium MM 0. Sucks
Islemerada or Marathon Head boats for 4 hrs fishing for ~$25-30.
Good Luck
