The final season of I Love Lucy included trips to Florida and Cuba, occasioned by Ricky’s orchestra engagement at Miami Beach’s Eden Roc Hotel. As with previous seasons, the writers maximized the comedic potential of the new locales, featuring deep-sea fishing in Florida, the cast marooned on a desert island, and a trip to Cuba to visit Ricky’s family.
