| FLORIDA KEYS ON THE WATER
The Florida Keys are famous for harboring such historical luminaries as playwright Tennessee Williams, novelist Ernest Hemingway, and bird-chronicler John James Audubon. In truth, aspiring artists continue to be drawn to the Keys. They come not just for the spectacular sunsets and stunning wildlife but for the free-spirited way of life embodied by the Keys.
The 120-mile Florida Keys island chain is home to North America’s only living-coral barrier reef. This teeming backbone of marine life runs the length of the Keys about five miles off offshore.
Our coral formations are famous for their abundance of fish, from impressive schools of blue-striped grunts to toothy green moray eels. The U.S. government established the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary to protect our marine habitat.
Once you visit the Keys, you’ll see why some of the some of the most renowned dive photographers and writers in the world make this their home base.
