Lake Okeechobee
Florida's 'Inland Sea' is often visible to the west shortly after departure from West Palm Beach.
The Everglades
The northern reaches of this vast wetland ecosystem offer a mosaic of green and water.
Orlando Resorts
On clear days, the sprawl of Central Florida's major theme park complexes can be spotted in the distance.
