THE
FLORIDA KEYS
Like
a string of pearls tossed casually in the sea, the Florida Keys
are a series of islands linked together by a series of 44 bridges,
the Atlantic Ocean on one side and Florida Bay (the Gulf of
Mexico) on the other. Key West is the southernmost point in the
United States and the farthest from the US mainland, yet just one
hour south of Miami sits Key Largo, home to North America's only
living coral reef. Twenty minutes further south is Islamorada,
internationally proclaimed as "the sport fishing capital of
the world" and a favorite family vacation spot. |

LIFE
IN THE KEYS... Relaxing, But Never Boring
This
is the Sandbar in Islamorada, a popular offshore gathering spot
for power boating, swimming and having fun! If you don't have your
own boat, there are dozens of places to rent one for the day. |
 |
 |
Personal
watercraft (jet skis), sailboats, kayaks, snorkel, SCUBA and SNUBA
gear are also available for rent or purchase. Snorkel the reef at
John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park, home to the undersea statue
of Christ --or dive at your leisure among the spectacular living
coral reef or one of the many marked wreck sites. You
can also glass bottom boat or dive the sunken naval ship, USS
Spiegel Grove,
the world's largest artificial reef. |
|
The
Keys are home to some of the best fishing spots on earth. Snook,
tarpon, snapper, bonefish, sailfish, grouper, mahi-mahi (dolphin),
shrimp and lobster abound. Deep-sea or flat fishing, oceanside or
"back country" in Florida Bay, the upper Keys has it
all! Serious about fishing? This could be you... |

Pennekamp
Park has two swimming beaches, Harry Harris County Park has one,
and there are other swimming beaches & pools open to the
public for little or no fee. Nature lover? Stroll through
Key Largo's Bird Sanctuary or an unspoiled nature preserve.
Manatees, a protected, endangered species known as "sea
cows", frolic in the area's clean canals --or take a short
car ride to Big Pine Key and you're sure to see the famous and
endangered miniature Key deer. |

LIFE
IN THE KEYS, relaxing but never boring. Enjoy a meal at one of the
area's fine restaurants or on your own waterfront patio. Picture
yourself here... |

Each
morning the sun delivers a spectacular oceanside sunrise, and each
evening as the sun sets in Florida Bay on the Gulf of Mexico, well
-it just doesn't get any better than this...
