Wild Florida: The PBS Series That Shows You a Side of Florida Most People Miss
Most people come to Florida for the beaches. This series takes you to the places they drive right past.
PBS’s Wild Florida is the nature series the Sunshine State deserves. Hosted by Hunter Reno, each half-hour episode drops into a different ecosystem – the remote coral reefs of Dry Tortugas National Park, the ancient scrub habitat of the Lake Wales Ridge, the crystal-clear springs where manatees gather by the hundreds.
What sets it apart is the range. One episode you’re underwater on the third largest barrier reef on Earth. The next you’re in the company of monkeys that have called Florida home for a century, or watching the tiny, endangered Key Deer navigate the Lower Keys. It’s the kind of show that makes you want to cancel your theme park tickets and head for a state park instead.
Every episode streams free on pbs.org and the PBS app.
