It sounds like a little piece of paradise, doesn’t it? Here in Key Largo, it could be your reality. If you are planning your next Florida Keys vacation, Key Largo has everything you need to get started. Here, we have fun family-friendly attractions, stunning scenery, and the freshest seafood you could imagine. Here are five things to do during your summer vacation in Key Largo.

1. Catching some rays

Surf, sand, and sun: Key Largo’s beaches have it all. From the sun-kissed Far Beach to the sugary white sands of Anne’s Beach in Islamorada. The beaches here are breathtakingly beautiful, comfortably accessible, and ready for some fun in the sun. With gentle surfs and long stretches of sand, your family will have plenty of room to splash, swim, snorkel, or comb the beach. Pack a picnic lunch and make a day of it!

2. Adventuring into the sunset

What is a vacation without an adventure or two? Here in Key Largo, we take our excitement very seriously while adding an eco-friendly twist. Our eco-adventures allow you to learn more about the animals that make the Keys their homes while allowing you to explore deep in the islands to discover hidden harbors and more.

3. Swimming with friends

Swimming is great exercise and a lot of fun, but at Theater of the Sea, you can swim with a whole new set of friends. Even young kids can take a dip with dolphins and turtles here in a natural lagoon and learn about these magnificent creatures from their trainers. During your interactive sessions, you can swim, snorkel, and otherwise explore your surroundings while touching and interacting with dolphins, sea lions, or other marine creatures.

4. Going a little deeper

When you travel to Key Largo, you will have a unique opportunity to take in the splendors of the Atlantic with a glass-bottom boat tour. Take a leisurely voyage to the reef while relaxing on the sun deck or inside the climate-controlled cabin of a spacious yacht. From the comfort of the boat, you can observe the reef through the viewing windows with no unwanted distortions. The reef is home to numerous marine creatures, from large and small fish to sea fans, plumes, and mammals too. You might even spy a glimpse of a shipwreck along the way!

5. Tasting the Keys

Don’t forget to try the local flavors while you are in town! The dining scene here in Key Largo is simply unmatched! Try blackened lobster with cheesy grits at Mrs. Mac’s Kitchen or the freshest fish at Robbie’s of Islamorada. Then, finish your meals off with a slice of fresh, cool Key lime pie from the Green Turtle Inn.
