Just pay to park your car and everybody inside can swim and snorkel inside at the beach park. This is a great alternative to snorkel boats, when you are limited on time or keeping the budget in tact. Water clarity is not an issue and is much better on clear, bright sunny days. Light winds do help as well, both around the beach area and out on the reefs.

Cheap Reef Trips are so Enjoyable You can take the scuba boat trips from here, and they are hugely popular. We went out and got a good look at two great Key Largo Dive Locations. Carysfort Reef (This gun ship sank in 1775, with mooring buoys surrounding the lighthouse and is six miles out). French Reef (Great because of the dozens of ledges and caves to explore). For happy hours go to Sundowners (103900 Overseas Highway) or the Hideout Restaurant? (47 Shoreland Drive).
Key Largo Florida Beach List What a spot for the perfect beach day. There is plenty of shade to relax with a best-selling boating magazine. Take a good long stroll to see it all. You can do it all here, even snorkel from the beach, fish, kayak and then some!

Key Largo Main Public Beach The main public Key Largo Beach is here with plenty of sparkling ways to beat the heat. Such a treat is the unique marine park atmosphere, featuring everything from kayaks, SUP boards, scuba lessons and a camping zone.

Tips for the Beginning Snorkeler Easy snorkeling from the shore here. Go far out, past everyone for a good view. Full sun above helps with underwater seeing.

Make some Pennekamp Videos I was looking at the aerial photos of Key Largo on google and I found the coolest looking kayaking trails by Pennekamp Park. I know exactly where that is behind the Key Largo School and the Tom Thumb Store. We have to kayak there.
