Description:Prime real estate for fish. Prime real estate for people. Estuaries are valuable and essential for nature and humans alike. And, wherever you are in Florida, you are close enough to an estuary to either impact or protect it, depending on your actions. The vast network of coastal waters and wetlands that forms Florida's estuaries provides major economic and environmental benefits to residents and visitors in the Sunshine State. Estuaries support some of our largest commercial and recreational fisheries. They also are the setting for many popular outdoor activities. Estuaries are outstanding places to canoe, kayak or just watch nature. They also play an important role in protecting our coasts from storms. They dissipate wave energy and thereby reduce the damage to our shores and properties. In short, estuaries are coastal treasures.
