 The Garden of Eden at Mile
Marker 82.2 by TheTravelSlut
This store was closed when I visited over the 4th of the July long weekend but that did not stop me from getting a photo with the huge parrot fish statue out front along Highway 1.
Do not get this confused with the Garden of Eden in Key West which is a popular clothing optional bar on the roof of the Bull & Whistle bar on Duval Street.
Always consider some "cheesy" Florida gift whether it be alligator jerky or hula bobble girls.
The store has a variety of unique Keys-type items that are top quality also.
Prices vary throughout the Keys. Drugstores and even grocery stores carry most souvenirs, postcards, etc but the local stores carry authentic Keys-made items that can be one of a kind.

There's a big flea market at Big Pine every Saturday and Sunday 8 to 2 from October to May. So many people come that the traffic is terrible. There is a big parking lot with no shade. Be sure you've got sunscreen.
I bought some wholesale stuff for my daughter's anniversary - not at this stand, but it was wholesale jewelry. The marked prices were not the prices I paid.
The shops with the T-shirts nicely displayed are not the ones that you get 4 for $10.00. But at that they are probably cheaper than you will get in Key West on Duval Street.
They have women's sarongs, terry bathrobes, bathing suits, etc.
There is a sock booth. That photo was taken on a cold day as you can see from the way the woman shopper is bundled up. I've never bought socks here. The booth is right next to the cheap (seconds) T-shirt booth where T-shirts (some with collars) are 4/$10.00.
They also have souveniers, fresh food/farm market produce and plants and pottery
One time Bob got a pair of polarized sunglasses for $6.00. He also got a patch repair kit for patching a flat hose for about $3.00 Leave a Comment

There are a variety of items on sale. The first time, I got some canvas for painting pictures on, and sunglasses. Bob got some very cheap canvas bags, and shirts that were seconds. There were also books, pottery, dishes, knives, T-shirts, sarongs, socks, and knicknacks of various sorts.
We went in 2002 when we had a rented car, and went again January 2004
The first picture has a guy has various pieces of stainless boat hardware such as handles and hinges, stainless strips, and dinghy plugs, etc.

There is a new mall under development off of Card Sound Road. You wouldn't know with all the road construction coming into Key Largo and some of the Condo-Motel's popping up. It has some great sporting goods and clothing. It saves you at least an hour and half drive time going up to Miami.
Outdoor gear and clothing.
$25 and up. Theme: Sporting GoodsAddress: MM 2.1 off of Card Sound Road ocean sidePhone: 305-852-4805Directions: Just north of Dynamite DocksWebsite: Floridakeysmall.com

You will find several of these stores as you drive the Overseas highway. Just look for the lime green signs. Leave a Comment Theme: Other

Its a fisherman's toy store. Anything you need for fishing is there. There is also the best in fishing clothes and accessories. There is a replica of Ernest Hemmingway's Pilar. There's a giant fish tank with Tarpon, Permit, Redfish, grouper, Snook, Lookdowns. The Zane Gray Lounge has tons of memorabilia and great food. Its not just a store, it's an experience.
