Report: Florida national parks among 'sexiest' in America

Florida's got a pretty good batting average for hitting a home run, at least when it comes to going all the way in a national park.

Two of the state's three national parks made the 10 Sexiest National Parks in America list compiled by MissTravel.com, a travel and dating site.

And by sexy, it means parks in which the members of the website community have done the deed.

At the top of the list is Zion National Park in Utah, but coming in right behind is Dry Tortugas National Park, to the west of the Florida Keys. Also in the top 10 is Biscayne National Park near Miami coming in at lucky No. 7.

"I've actually been to Dry Tortugas, twice (though not under these circumstances)," said MissTravel.com spokesperson Jennifer Gwynn. And though it is fairly small, there were times when I didn't see another soul on the beach, so I definitely think it is possible to be alone with someone you care about."

The poll of 8,500 single travelers showed that 21 percent, or more than one in five, had held their own congress so to speak while in a national park.

The only Florida park not on the list, with only two members of those polled having braved the elements, is Everglades National Park.

"Unfortunately for the Everglades, they are ranked the second least 'sexy' park in America," Gwynn said. "I can attest that a sweaty, romp in the swamp is not at the top of many travelers 'to do' lists. I am going to hope that the two people who reported committing sexual indiscretions in the Everglades, some how did so comfortably indoors."

The other least "sexy" park was Yellowstone National Park.

The full list of Sexiest National Parks in America is as follows:
1. Zion National Park - Utah
2. Dry Tortugas National Park - Florida
3. Redwood National Park - California
4. Mammoth Cave National Park - Kentucky
5. Arches National Park - Utah
6. American Samoa National Park - American Samoa
7. Biscayne National Park - Florida
8. Big Bend National Park - Texas
9. Congaree National Park - South Carolina
10. Smoky Mountains National Park - Tennessee
