The Islands of the Middle Keys offer spectacular sailing, fishing, world-class wreck and reef diving and snorkelling, in addition to the island’s impeccably maintained beaches, eco-attractions and marine-based educational programs. Enjoy annual seafood festivals and waterside restaurants that harvest fresh fish, lobster and stone crab claws from local waters.
For anglers, waters teem with offshore billfish and tuna in the winter, bridge-hugging tarpon in the spring and dolphin fish in the summer.
The family can swim with dolphins at the Dolphin Research Center, feed stingrays at Aquarium Encounters, pet sea turtles at the Turtle Hospital, get back to nature at Crane Point Hammock and Curry Hammock State Park or go back in time at historic Pigeon Key Island.
