Florida’s economy is heavily dependent on its oceans and shoreline. Florida’s shoreline Gross State Product (GSP) is more than $402B (compared to $160B for inland economy) Florida’s shoreline Gross State Product (GSP) is more than $402B (compared to $160B for inland economy) Ocean tourism and recreations is projected to grow by 73% in the next decade, creating more than 268,000 new jobs. Ocean tourism and recreations is projected to grow by 73% in the next decade, creating more than 268,000 new jobs. Florida’s GSP for transportation and recreation is one of the top five in the nation, a significant influence on the ocean economy.
