Florida Keys

Toes in sand, drink in hand applies most everywhere we roam. Toes in the sea, bum on a boat, though, is better when visiting Islamorada.

It's not the Caribbean, but the Florida Keys still offer a few uncommon travel experiences we love. Alligator Reef Lighthouse is one of them.

It's not as epic as daybreak from your own private catamaran. Still, catching the sunrise aboard the Dry Tortugas ferry is pretty nice.

I've no idea who created National Hammock Day, or what inspired them. I'd like to think, though, that the aha moment happened here.

If you're visiting Fort Jeffereson on a day trip, you'll want to leave time for beachcombing, snorkeling, and a stroll atop the Fort Jefferson seawalls. 

In the Florida Keys, Sunday is fishing day. Florida Keys flats fishing is good everywhere, though the best spots extend south from Marathon.

Floating into the weekend is pure fun and niceness in The Florida Keys. At least that's how this couple made it seem to me.

History, great snorkeling, soothing clear water, and plenty of shade trees for an afternoon snooze – yeah, Fort Zach has it all.

We ventured outside of our Caribbean comfort zone last week to the Florida Keys and Key West. Our mission: uncover elements of the West Indies in the Keys.
