Florida Keys Beaches

by Jim Lawton

The Florida Keys are the southernmost tropical islands in Florida that you can actually drive, fly or take a short ferry ride to from mainland Florida. If you make the 130 mile or so drive to the end, you will find Key West. The deep wrecks of the Florida keys are yet another reason to start your angling adventures here in Marathon with our Sport Fishing Charters. The Florida Keys are made of fossilized coral rock and are surrounded by the Atlantic Ocean on the south side and the Gulf of Mexico and Florida Bay on the north side. Wildlife found in the Keys includes waterbirds, alligators, crocodiles, loggerhead turtles, Key deer, and manatees.

To the vacationer, the once sleepy little town on the Gulf might seem like another rich Florida community, like Palm Beach or South Beach. Yes, many of the “snow birds” and even year-round residents may have money, and there are more mansions than you can shake a stick at, but the pulse of Naples is less stuffy -more relaxed. And guess what? The beaches are within walking distance of the city!

Beautiful vistas abound, north or south, you can literally stroll for miles. And the backdrop, upscale mansions that line the Gulf coast.
