~the fabulous florida keys~

if you enjoy snorkeling or scuba , and superb fishing, the keys are fantastic. there is wonderful fresh seafood , a tropical ambiance, key west for serious partying, but for the true flavor of the keys islamorada is perfect. the sunsets are gorgeous everywhere, and the drive down keys over the bridges is spectacular...there is essentially only one road, overseas highway, rte.1. and traffic can be bad. beginning in key largo at mm 103 (mm= mile marker) all the way to the southernmost point of America, mm 0, all addresses in the keys are found by mm. there's so much to do there outdoors, i could go on and on about this string of pearls that is the florida keys.

Re: ~the fabulous florida keys~

i have been to the Keys, i did not enjoy the (LONG) bridge at all. It is a party animal place to be, no doubt, Isalamora, been there too. I didn;t know people who smoked could snorkel? the keys are okay, i am not going back.

Have I missed something??
Are you banned from snorkelling if you smoke or is that you are not allowed to smoke when you are actually snorkelling

it's a little tough to smoke while diving! LOL...the "long" seven-mile bridge offers views of the atlantic as well as the gulf of mexico simultaneously, and the colors of the waters meld in lovely profusion. if you go out on the old defunct seven-mile bridge you can see schools of fish , shark, shrimps, eagle rays, so many others. it's a popular fishing spot. and a wonderful place to see the sunset.

LC It's hard to believe that I've never been to Florida but think I'd love to visit the Keys....for some nutty reason they sound romantic but think it's from watching Bogie in Key Largo so many times OR maybe it's your description of them!!!!!LOL!

xxxxxxxooooooooo

Re: ~the fabulous florida keys~

well another chamber of commerce moment, here comes tropical storm Arlene! grrrrrrrrrrrr~~~~~~a tropical storm in the keys is pretty cool actually, like in the old movie Key Largo, palm fronds whipping around, sheets of rain, fish in the road, no power, and boats tossing around on the hook. very atmospheric.
