Tips and helpful hints regarding your Keys vacation:
Because it's easy to get too much sun, be sure to bring sun screen, a wide brim hat, long sleeve shirt or blouse and possibly full length trousers or slacks, but don't forget that bathing suit!
Our average air temperature in the Florida Keys is approximately 75° during the winter months. The average water temperature during the winter is between 65° - 68°. The atmosphere in the Keys is informal and friendly. Anything formal (coats and ties) are never required nor expected. A Keys winter sojourn, the perfect cure for the winter blahs.
If fishing is your hobby, we have a list of Florida Keys fishing guides. If you would like to take a day and go fishing with an expert guide - one of our neighbors on Conch Key is very friendly and professional. You can contact Capt. Dan directly at www.sharkrivercharters.com. He has two homes in Florida but is on Conch Key most of the time.
If you are a walking or running enthusiast, the Long Key bridge is a sure way to stay in shape while watching yet another warm sunset in the fabulous Florida Keys. We also have bicycles and kayaks for you to use.
Many fine restaurants are minutes away, with a flare for our native seafood. Tiki bars are along the way, where you can sip some of the most well known island drinks, the best of the Florida Keys.
A great place to go is Long Key State Park. Located on the ocean side, this park has a beach with picnic tables and BBQ's. Nature trails are abundant with many Keys and Everglades wildlife. Canoes are available in the park for an oceanside mangrove water adventure. Another great beach is in Marathon at Sombrero Beach.
Less than 2 miles from Conch Key is Hawk's Cay Resort where you will find power boat rentals, sport fishing boats and dive charter boats, windsurfing, jet skis, parasailing and a glass bottom boat tour.
Be sure to enjoy a tour of the Dolphin Research Center, which has several interaction packages available - www.dolphins.org. This facility is approximately 5 miles from Conch Key.
We will make sure you have a fun time in the Florida Keys!
Your hosts,
Capt. Tom and Peggy Horachek.
