The origin of the name of the Straits of Florida

When the Spaniard Ponce de Leon discovered the Florida Peninsula, he saw the peninsula was blooming with colorful flowers, so he named it "Florida", which means "flowers" in Spanish. This area is the warmest place in the United States, and the coldest winter is only 15°C. It is a popular place to escape the cold and visit. The Straits of Florida are named the Straits of Florida because they are located before the Florida Peninsula and the island of Cuba.
