NASA MODIS Image of the Day: February 5, 2008 - Florida, Cuba, and the Bahamas
The large landmass just south of Florida in this image is Cuba.
Cuba is only 129 miles from Florida and is about the size of Pennsylvania.
The Bahama islands are just visible on the right side of the image. The largest island, which you can see peaking out of the right side of the image, is Andros Island. Florida, the Bahamas, and Cuba are all surrounded by a greenish blue glow, which is from the clouds of phytoplankton that are flourishing in the water.
