Or maybe Miami will turn into a Venice-like romantic canal city, where travel will be done by jetski, tourism will flourish, and real estate prices will keep go

  I like this hypothesis.

  Isn’t Florida plagued by alligators? A Venice-like canal city and alligators make for an interesting mix.

    Alligators are mostly just fresh water. They can sort of survive brackish / a bit of salt but they're not as versatile as crocs.

      Unfortunately that opens the door for invasive saltwater crocodiles. While alligators are mostly super chill crocs are total dick bags.
      • bpicolo 10y ago
        Yeah. If I remember right there were a couple reports of crocs in South Florida over the years, though certainly no major issue

        But then sea level rise will fix the issue. If cities are sticking out like islands then it doesn't leave much habitat for crocs.

          But then you have a problem with sharks.
          • flukus 10y ago
            That's a fishing trip, not a problem ;)
          • Avshalom 10y ago
            Flukus is right: sharks are nice for sport fishing, relatively inconsequential for tourism.

    New Orleans has the occasional alligator in the bayous as well.
