Florida is a magical place, especially because of its geography. It's got the Gulf of Mexico to the west, Alabama and Georgia to the north, and the Atlantic Ocean to the east, with the Straits of Florida to the south. 
i love that state, the vastness of the sea
You're not the only one. It's the third most populated state, as well as the 8th most densely populated. A large part is because it has the longest coastline in the contiguous United States, so people flock to their beaches.
