Nearby attractions and activities:
Did I mention that we are in a fantastic Key Largo location? Key Largo is an island in the upper Florida Keys archipelago
and, at 33 miles (53 km) long, the largest of the Keys. It is also the northernmost of the Florida Keys in Monroe County,
and the northernmost of the Keys connected by U.S. Highway 1 (the Overseas Highway). Its earlier Spanish name was
Cayo Largo meaning Long Key. Key Largo is connected to the mainland in Miami-Dade County by two routes. The
Overseas Highway, which is U.S. Highway 1, enters Key Largo at Jewfish Creek near the middle of the island and turns
southwest. Card Sound Road connects to the northern part of Key
Largo at Card Sound Bridge and runs southeastward to connect
with County Road 905, which runs southwest and joins U.S. 1 at
about mile marker 106. These routes originate at Florida City on
the mainland. Key Largo is a popular tourist destination and calls
itself the Diving Capital of the World because the living coral reef
a few miles offshore attracts thousands of scuba divers and
sport-fishing enthusiasts. Key Largo's proximity to the Everglades
also makes it a premier destination for kayaker's and ecotourists.
In Geography, the island of Key Largo is an exposed, fossilized
remnant of a coral reef that was formed during a period of higher
sea level and then uncovered and eroded during a subsequent ice
age. The highest elevation is a slight ridge forming the spine of the
island, which rises to as high as about 15 feet. The land slopes from
the spine down to sea level on the oceanside and bayside.
Listed below are additional attractions in the Key Largo vicinity
including swimming with dolphins, bird and wildlife centers,
alligator shows, bicycle, motorcycle and jeep rentals, community
pool, golf, casino boat and more.
