Activities and Attractions
FISHING is Great! LOBSTERING is BETTER! Kayaking allows you to explore some of the most beautiful back country areas especially nice for a romantic sunset just a quick paddle beyong the canal. The famous Key Deer are only a 5 minutes drive towards Big Pine Key, swimming is nice on the home front canal, snorkeling, diving, flat and deep water fishing, mini-golf or regular golf (Key West) and biking (rentals available on Big Pine Key) or reggae music less than a 10 minute drive and Key West night life just 25 minutes away. Diving/Snorkeling boat leaves the Looe Key Resort (within walking distance from the home) with both reef and wreck trips available (you can bring your own equipment/rent from the resort for a minimal fee). "The ecological importance of Looe Key has been established through the creation of Looe Key National Marine Sanctuary" just a boat ride away with over 5 miles of reef to explore and only 45 foot depth of water so snorkeling is great!

Thank you for sharing with us your beautiful home. We had a wonderful time here. The weather was perfect and the fishing was great. We caught our limit with the lobsters and yellow tails...we also caught 2 dolphins. Had a good time at Boondocks. The 39 cent shrimp was outstanding and Key West was a lot of fun.

Our stay was very enjoyable at the house. We went fishing and kayaking. Having the canal right outside was very nice. All the neighbors were very welcoming and happy to help us. Hopefully we will be coming back soon! PS Checkout Duffys in Key West (Steak and Seafood)

Thank you for sharing your wonderful place with us. We truly have enjoyed everyday. I'm sure your plan is to retire in paradise, and we can't balme you. We "our family" so enjoyed our stay. The "pool" canal and mostly Sue and Aida your neighbors were like family and made us feel so welcome to the neighborhood.
