Trip to Lover's Key
This Thursday, we all went to Lover's Key State Park for Colloquium and it pales in comparison to the beaches I come from in Vero Beach. There are no waves in the Gulf of Mexico where Fort Myers borders as opposed to the Atlantic Ocean which Vero is bordering where there is more wave action coming to land. It is more shallower in the Gulf than in the Atlantic as you walk offshore which can explain the wave action being what it is in those places. This explains why Fort Myers is more of a fishing city as opposed to Vero, which is more popular for surfing, especially nearby the town is Sebastian Inlet, which is a popular destination for surfers. The lack of waves on the Gulf makes for a more relaxing look at the water for a visitor which wouldn't be the same in the Atlantic as the waves block looking at the sea and going in the ocean would be more treacherous as 8 foot waves can make treading tough and the possibility of getting rashes from getting knocked down would be bad for someone with a low pain tolerance. Lover's Key is more of a place for a person who enjoys peace and quiet with the lack of waves and a look deep into the gulf 100 miles away.
