Florida Keys vacation?

Sign in to disble this ad
What can anyone here tell me about vacationing in the Keys? A few friends and I are looking at heading down there in August for a few days of fishing and snorkeling/diving, but none of us have ever been.

Any pros/cons anyone feels like sharing are appreciated.

August? Bring sun block. The snorkeling/ scuba diving in the Keys is great. If you like salt water, sun, and alcohol, you'll have fun.

just a note, if you are driving, plan on staying a bit. if you are coming from Mobile, AL it will take you every bit of 15 hours and you will not want to go home. i recommend hanging in the middle somewhere, key colony or marathon or something. it's about an hour from key west so you can easily visit without staying among the craziness. have fun.

I've spent a good amount of time down there. If you're looking for fishing, Islamorada is THE place to be. If you're looking for girls, Key West is where it's at. And bring sunscreen!

Make sure you hit the Green Parrot! I think it's on Whitehead, it's a dive, but a cool dive where the locals go as opposed to the tourists.....a good time is guaranteed!!
