Florida Keys Traveler

Among serene, mangrove-lined coastlines and aquamarine waters of the Atlantic Ocean teeming with indigenous fish and wildlife, the Florida Keys offer an abundance of natural beauty. In this episode, we hear from three people working to conserve these cherished natural resources, from the coral reefs of the ocean floor to the nodding green canopies of the tropical mangrove forests.
