The Florida economy, and specifically the real estate market, has been in a downturn since the boom years of 2003 to 2005.  The Florida Keys, and the coastal properties of southwest and southeast Florida have been effected particularily hard.  While there is still significant pressure on prices, sale volume has started to increase in late 2008.
