TAMPA, Fla. — More than a dozen lighthouses dot the more than 1,800 miles of Florida's coastline.
OnlyInYourState.com has put together a map so you can visit several of them from a social distance as we continue to fight the coronavirus.
The journey begins at the lighthouse on St. George Island in the Panhandle and ends all the way down in Cape Florida. The trip will take you past some record-holding lighthouses, including the oldest and tallest in the state.
Some lighthouses even have the option to climb inside or take a tour around town.
