Florida Keys Vacations
America’s Caribbean, no passport required. The Florida Keys string turquoise water, coral reefs and Key West’s free-spirited sunsets along the legendary Overseas Highway.
The Florida Keys are a 120-mile ribbon of islands from Key Largo to Key West, linked by the Overseas Highway and its famous Seven Mile Bridge. Dive and snorkel the only living coral reef in the continental U.S., cast for tarpon and bonefish off Islamorada, swim the beaches of Bahia Honda, and end at Key West for its sunset celebration, Duval Street and Hemingway history. Laid-back, tropical and drivable from Miami, the Keys are an easy island escape — and a specialist matches the right island, stay and activities.
