The Florida Keys, also called the “American Caribbean”, are made up of approximately 1,700 islands most of which are uninhabited. The islands, or Keys, that are populated are connected by 42 bridges and stretch some 126 miles from the mainland to the last Key, Key West.

The Florida Keys reef system is the only living coral barrier reef in North America and is the 3rd largest coral barrier reef in the world. The Florida Keys reef is located from 1 mile to 8 miles offshore and extends about 221 miles down the coast of South Florida and the Florida Keys from Key Biscayne (near Miami) to the Dry Tortugas, 70 miles west of Key West. Because the reef protects the shores of the Florida Keys from the Atlantic surf, the Florida Keys have very few beaches and some are man-made.

The turquoise-blue waters surrounding the Florida Keys and Key West provide outstanding world-class flats fishing, back country fishing, deep-sea fishing, scuba diving and snorkeling, sailing and other water related activities and makes the Florida Keys and Key West one of the world’s most popular vacation destinations.

You can catch a number of different fish in every month of the year in the Florida Keys.
