If you want to actually see a variety of venomous snakes all in one place, take a night drive through Okaloosa County, Fla. Anywhere around Eglin AFB (north of Ft. Walton Beach) is rattlesnake and cottonmouth central. All of the venomous species found in the southeast U.S. are present in that area. I once read that there are more venomous snakes per square mile there than anywhere else in the U.S. Diamondbacks, cottonmouths, timbers, duskys, Copperheads and corals.

I live in Gulf Breeze and the only thing I have seen in the area is cottonmouths but several rattle snakes have been seen in the neighborhood. I think because of the swampy nature of the area is why we have so many snakes in Okaloosa and Santa Rosa.
