Is a good place to start.

Good protection won't be cheap. And according to some
who live in FL, the strikes there are intense enough to
defeat even good protection.

I have survived on direct strick that vaporised coax and
antenna, and several near by strikes that took out nearby
trees with no damage.

Good protection will also require a good, low resistance
ground. Not a casual project.
