Nikkimiller3 Says: This key is best known for charter fish and diving weather its reefs or wreaks , they have it all. The dive charter Company is located right on the main road. There is a little cafe located right next to the dive boat area , and moderately priced between 7-9 dollars. Or for...
Ericasmurf99 Says: It's certainly not as big as Sea World, but it is still a great way to spend an afternoon. The schedule of shows run right after the other, so you are always doing something. If you follow the exact order you'll begin with the guided tour of marine life exhibits (fish,...
cjg1 Says: Theatre of the Sea is a small animal marine park. The park has lagoons, dolphins, stingrays, sea lions, sharks,alligators and birds. The shows are educational and well as fun. There are also programs where you can swim with the dolphins and hand feed them. It takes about an...

doug48 Says: pictured is a nice black fin tuna i caught in islamorada a number of years ago. they can be cooked as tuna steaks or boiled for tuna salad. fresh boiled tuna really beats the stuff you buy in a can. there are numerous marinas in islamorada where you can book off shore...

LoreLei's: Florida Key's "Local" Restaurant
MatthewMetcalfe Says: Lorelei's is a seafood restaurant in Islamorada that specializes in Fresh Catches. They also have a bar and live entertainment at times. Located on the bay side, they have docks that run right up to the restaurant. Although the Restaurant looks a little worn, the food is...

Papa Joe's: Sunset on Lower Matecumbe Key
Winch Says: The best bar in Islamorada for sunset has a flawed view. From the elevated deck bar above the wharf, Papa Joe's offers a stunning sunset, marred only by the intrusive electric pylons sprouting from the water. Yet, except for some private resorts, the view here is the best in...
goingsolo Says: That's what the sign says at the entrance into this two story wood structure. Everyone in the Keys knows about the Tiki Bar and everyone goes there. Other than a few really small local area bars, its really the only place to go.The Tiki Bar is pretty crowded during the in...
cjg1 Says: The Florida Keys Scenic Highway is one incredible drive. One side you have the Atlantic Ocean and the other is the Gulf of Mexico. Driving down the highway was great. The views of the water was unbelievable. The shades of blue from deep aqua, to light turquoise to baby blue...
kgrusso Says: Small local village shop that specializes in Florida books for adults, youth and children. There aren't many rainy days but when you have one you need something to do. You can get playing cards, jigsaw puzzles, books, both new and used. Pirates--the greatest selection of...
KARLPORTER56 Says: Especially at Low tide and after dark. they are everywhere. Do not Rev your engine if you get stuck.. You can try to pull out your boat but if you are too far in you will have to wait until high tide.
goingsolo Says: Be very careful driving, especially at night. The main road leading through the Keys is a two lane road which is not lit at night. People walk across the road at all times and are virtually impossible to see. Also, numerous fatal accidents are caused every year by drunk...
goingsolo Says: Bathing suits, suntan lotion and shorts. The tropical climate and laid back attitude of the Keys make this an extremely casual place. There are a few fancy restaurants, such as the Cheeca Lodge, and you may want to check if they have any dress code if you plan to eat...
