Poniżej wymieniono niektóre z wielu najważniejszych wydarzeń

2

Park stanowy Bahia Honda

Bahia Honda State Park jest słusznie uważana za najlepszą plażę na Florida Keys i plasuje się w pierwszej dziesiątce wszystkich plaż w USA. W ładny, ciepły dzień jest to absolutnie zalecany przystanek na orzeźwiającą kąpiel, a nawet po prostu trochę piasku i wody między palcami u stóp.

3

Plaża Anny

Jedna z najpiękniejszych plaż Key na Lower Matecumbe Key. Jest 300 stóp nowo wymienionej promenady, która zapewnia dostęp do różnych obszarów plaży, gdzie woda jest prawie zawsze ciepła, czysta i spokojna. Nawet warto zatrzymać się na zdjęcie, jeśli nie masz ochoty na pływanie.

4

Dom i muzeum Ernesta Hemingwaya

W samym sercu Starego Miasta w Key West znajduje się Dom i Muzeum Ernesta Hemingwaya. Kultowy autor Ameryki przez 10 lat nazywał Key West swoim domem. Zwiedzaj dom i ogrody, aby dowiedzieć się więcej o jego książkach, 4 żonach i dzieciach oraz zobaczyć 40 kotów polidaktylowych, które są potomkami jego słynnego białego sześciopalczastego kota, Królewny Śnieżki.

5

Narodowy Key Deer Refuge

Małe zagrożone wyginięciem Key Deer występują teraz wyłącznie w Florida Keys. Są dobrymi pływakami, być może pozwalając im przetrwać huragany, takie jak Irma. Obecnie kolizje pojazdów są największym zagrożeniem, więc zobaczysz strefy wolnej jazdy, które pomogą je chronić, zwłaszcza wokół Big Pine Key.

6

ulica Duwalska

Najsłynniejsza ulica w Key West, to tutaj znajdziesz największą kolekcję barów, sklepów i restauracji.

7

Key West

Możesz być zaskoczony, gdy dowiesz się, że tętniące życiem miasto Key West było kiedyś największym miastem na całej Florydzie. Będąc zaledwie 90 mil od Kuby i na głównych szlakach żeglugowych z Ameryki Południowej, Key West jest wyjątkową fuzją kultur amerykańskiej, kubańskiej i latynoskiej. Architektura jest pięknie stylowa. Ulice tętnią życiem, a na tej niewielkiej wyspie jest całkiem sporo polecanych miejsc.

8

Park Stanowy Rafy Koralowej im. Johna Pennekampa

Dlaczego parki miałyby chronić tylko to, co jest na lądzie? John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park był pierwszym w Stanach Zjednoczonych, który został wyznaczony jako park podwodny. Obejmuje około 70 morskich mil kwadratowych z terenem od bagien namorzynowych po płytkie wody koralowe i rafy głębinowe, idealne do nurkowania. Odwiedzający park mogą nurkować z mnóstwem ryb podczas zwiedzania Statuy Chrystusa z Głębin, a nawet pozostałości starego hiszpańskiego wraku statku.

9

Klucz gołębia

Mały 5-hektarowy Pigeon Key odegrał kluczową rolę dla pracowników kolei budujących ostatnie etapy projektu kolei zamorskiej Florida East Coast Railway, która miała łączyć pasażerów z Nowego Jorku do Key West, a nawet kontynuować podróż łodzią do Hawany, bez opuszczania wagon. Most Old Seven Mile przechodził przez wyspę, która służyła jako domy robotnicze i obóz. Po uderzeniu huraganu Irma trwa odbudowa mostu dla tych, którzy chcą ponownie dojść do Pigeon Key. Dostęp jest obecnie możliwy krótką przejażdżką promem z centrum dla zwiedzających w Maratonie i stanowi dodatkowy bonus.

10

Siedmiomilowy most

Seven Mile Bridge to najdłuższy z mostów na Overseas Highway. Naprawdę poczujesz się, jakbyś unosił się nad wodą. To świetny, ciekawy przystanek na zdjęcia, zwłaszcza od strony Maratonu. Podczas przejazdu z mostu złapiemy widoki na historycznie znaczący Pigeon Key.

11

Najbardziej wysunięty na południe punkt

Najbardziej wysunięty na południe punkt sąsiednich Stanów Zjednoczonych? Znajduje się dokładnie w Key West i jest oznaczony betonową boją, a my podjedziemy do niego naszą pętlą w Key West. Zaledwie 90 mil na południe po drugiej stronie wody leży Kuba. Ustawią się długie kolejki do robienia zdjęć, więc idź wcześnie, aby uniknąć tłumów. Lub po prostu zachowaj zrelaksowaną postawę Key West i ciesz się chwilą, czekając na swoją kolej.

12

Stary Siedmiomilowy Most

Niedawno ponownie otwarty na spacery, jazdę na rowerze i wędkowanie

13

Szpital Żółwi

Pierwszy na świecie dedykowany Turtle Hospital powstał na Maratonie, przekształcając stary motel. Żółwie, które zostały uratowane z kolizji łodzi, plastikowych toreb i nie tylko, są przewożone do szpitala w celu leczenia, aw większości przypadków ostatecznie wypuszczane z powrotem do oceanu.

14

klucz Largo

Najdłuższy z Florida Keys i pierwszy Key, którym dotrzemy opuszczając kontynent USA. 3 z najpopularniejszych przystanków na Key Largo to Caribbean Club, park stanowy rafy koralowej im. Johna Pennekampa i African Queen. Dwie z tych lokalizacji były inspirowane Hollywood. Nurkowie, a nawet miłośnicy snorkelingu znajdą wiele interesujących miejsc do odkrycia w czystych, ciepłych wodach.

Florida Keys

As the audio guides play commentary based on your gps location, you can create your own itinerary along the tour route(s) to match your interests and schedule. Or you can use our trip planners for our suggestions on half, full or multi-day itineraries. Some of the many highlights are listed below

16

Bahia Honda State Park

The Bahia Honda State Park is rightly considered the best beach in the Florida Keys and ranks in the top 10 of all beaches in the USA. On a nice warm day, this is absolutely a recommended stop for a cooling swim or even just to get some sand and water between your toes.

17

Anne's Beach

One of the Key's nicest beaches on the Lower Matecumbe Key. There's 300 feet of newly replaced boardwalk that provides access to different areas of the beach where the water is almost always, warm, clear, and calm. Even a worthwhile stop for a photo if you don't feel like swimming.

18

The Ernest Hemingway Home and Museum

Located in the heart of Old Town Key West, lies the Ernest Hemingway House and Museum. America's iconic author called Key West his home for 10 years. Tour inside the house and gardens to learn more about his books, 4 wives, and children and see the 40 polydactyl cats that are descendants of his famous white six-toed cat, Snow White.

19

National Key Deer Refuge

The tiny endangered Key Deer are now found exclusively in the Florida Keys. They are good swimmers, perhaps allowing them to survive hurricanes like Irma. Today, vehicle collisions are the number one threat, so you'll see slow driving zones to help protect them, especially around Big Pine Key.

20

Key West

You might be surprised to learn the vibrant town of Key West was once the largest city in all of Florida. Being only 90 miles from Cuba and on major shipping routes from South America, Key West is a unique fusion of American, Cuban and Latino cultures. The architecture is beautifully stylish. The streets are lively and there are quite a few recommended places to visit on this compact island.

21

John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park

Why should Parks just preserve what is on land? The John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park was the first in the US to be designated as an undersea park. It covers about 70 nautical square miles with terrain ranging from mangrove swamps to shallow-water coral and deep-sea reefs, ideal for scuba diving. Visitors to the park can snorkel with multitudes of fish while exploring the Christ of the Deep Statue and even the remnants of an old Spanish shipwreck.

22

Pigeon Key

The tiny 5 acre Pigeon Key played a pivotal role for railroad workers building the final stages of the Florida East Coast Railway's Overseas Railway project, which would connect passengers from New York to Key West, and even continue by boat to Havana, without ever leaving the carriage. The Old Seven Mile Bridge passed right through the island which served as worker's homes and camp. After taking a battering after Hurricane Irma, bridge reconstruction continues for those hoping to walk to Pigeon Key once again. Access currently is by short ferry boat ride starting from the visitor center in Marathon, and is an added bonus.

23

Seven Mile Bridge

Seven Mile Bridge is the longest of the bridges on the Overseas Highway. You will truly feel like you are floating over the water. It's a great, interesting photo stop, especially from the Marathon side. We will catch views of the historically significant Pigeon Key from the bridge as we drive by.

24

Old Seven Mile Bridge

Recently re-opened for walking, biking, and fishing

25

The Turtle Hospital

The world's first dedicated Turtle Hospital was created on Marathon, by converting an old motel. Turtles who have been rescued from boat collisions, plastic bags and more are brought to the hospital to be treated and in most cases, ultimately released back into the ocean.

26

Key Largo

The longest of the Florida Keys and the first Key we will arrive on when leaving the USA mainland. 3 of the most popular stops on Key Largo are the Caribbean Club, John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park and the African Queen. Two of these locations have had Hollywood inspiration. Divers and even snorkelers will find many interesting features to explore in the clear, warm waters.

Key Largo

The longest of the Florida Keys and the first Key we will arrive on when leaving the USA mainland. 3 of the most popular stops on Key Largo are the Caribbean Club, John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park and the African Queen.

Bahia Honda State Park

The Bahia Honda State Park is rightly considered the best beach in the Florida Keys and ranks in the top 10 of all beaches in the USA. On a nice warm day, this is absolutely a recommended stop for a cooling swim or even just to get some sand and water between your toes.

101

Anne's Beach

One of the Key's nicest beaches on the Lower Matecumbe Key. There's 300 feet of newly replaced boardwalk that provides access to different areas of the beach where the water is almost always, warm, clear, and calm. Even a worthwhile stop for a photo if you don't feel like swimming.

102

The Ernest Hemingway Home and Museum

Located in the heart of Old Town Key West, lies the Ernest Hemingway House and Museum. America's iconic author called Key West his home for 10 years. Tour inside the house and gardens to learn more about his books, 4 wives, and children and see the 40 polydactyl cats that are descendants of his famous white six-toed cat, Snow White.

103

National Key Deer Refuge

The tiny endangered Key Deer are now found exclusively in the Florida Keys. They are good swimmers, perhaps allowing them to survive hurricanes like Irma. Today, vehicle collisions are the number one threat, so you'll see slow driving zones to help protect them, especially around Big Pine Key.

104

Key West

You might be surprised to learn the vibrant town of Key West was once the largest city in all of Florida. Being only 90 miles from Cuba and on major shipping routes from South America, Key West is a unique fusion of American, Cuban and Latino cultures. The architecture is beautifully stylish. The streets are lively and there are quite a few recommended places to visit on this compact island.

105

John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park

Why should Parks just preserve what is on land? The John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park was the first in the US to be designated as an undersea park. It covers about 70 nautical square miles with terrain ranging from mangrove swamps to shallow-water coral and deep-sea reefs, ideal for scuba diving. Visitors to the park can snorkel with multitudes of fish while exploring the Christ of the Deep Statue and even the remnants of an old Spanish shipwreck.

106

Pigeon Key

The tiny 5 acre Pigeon Key played a pivotal role for railroad workers building the final stages of the Florida East Coast Railway's Overseas Railway project, which would connect passengers from New York to Key West, and even continue by boat to Havana, without ever leaving the carriage. The Old Seven Mile Bridge passed right through the island which served as worker's homes and camp. After taking a battering after Hurricane Irma, bridge reconstruction continues for those hoping to walk to Pigeon Key once again. Access currently is by short ferry boat ride starting from the visitor center in Marathon, and is an added bonus.
