Island Living

Here in the Greater Marathon Area, we enjoy life at a slower pace. So relax and make yourself at home, you are on island time now!

Directions are typically given by mile marker with Ocean or Bay side, also known as Gulf side, to let you know what side of the road your destination is on.

Speaking of roads, there is only one road in and one road out – the Overseas Highway. This famous strip of asphalt has been immortalized in song and book alike. This road is your passage from famed Key Largo to infamous Key West.

Sandals and shorts are acceptable attire no matter the venue. We know you are going to love our laid back atmosphere, fish filled waters and sunny days every bit as much as we do. And no… we really never grow tired of fish stories, sunshine, palm trees or Jimmy Buffett songs.

We hope you will find yourself here… in the islands Ernest Hemingway loved, Henry Flagler made history over and Zane Grey sought to protect.

Find yourself in Marathon… the Boating Destination of the Florida Keys
