Watch Lonely Planet online: Episode 3 Florida & the Bahamas

Lavinia Tan visits one of the world's most popular tourist destinations, a place with more sun, sand, sea and theme parks than you can possibly visit in one go but also a place with the largest sub tropical wilderness in the USA and the only place in the Western hemisphere to have launched man into space - it can only be Florida and the Bahamas. Lavinia samples the sights of Miami, including the Cuban Calle Ocho street party, South Beach's Art Nouveau architecture, the Gay and Lesbian Winter Party and the striking Holocaust Memorial. From there it's off to Florida Keys for diving and Ernest Hemingway's home before traveling to Cape Canaveral for an astronaut experience and to Orlando where she visits not just Disney World but also Celebration, the corporation's very own planned community. Then it's on to St Augustine, America's oldest town, a place with Spanish colonial architecture before experiencing a real contrast at Daytona Beach's Bike Week. In the Everglades, Lavinia meets the Seminole Indians and watches alligator wrestling. Finally, she ends up in the Bahamas where over three million tourists sun worship every year where she visits a massive straw market, takes a mini submarine out to a World War Two wreck, goes diving with sharks and ends her journey kayaking through a tropical nature reserve.
