Florida Keys Holidays

Made up of 400 glorious coral islands surrounded by glistening waters, the Florida Keys sits off the coast of the Sunshine State and is the southernmost point of continental USA. Renowned for having America’s only living coral barrier reef, you simply can’t miss out on the chance to enjoy water-based adventures on your Florida Keys holiday from diving to spot stunning marine life, kayaking through mangroves and getting up close to dolphins at Dolphins Plus Bayside.

With so many different islands to explore, you don’t have to stay in one place for long– in fact, we think hopping from key to key is the best way to see all that the Florida Keys has to offer. Stay in Islamorada, a popular fishing location with a number of sophisticated hotels, art galleries and boutiques. Or head to Key Largo, a quirky and captivating destination with an eclectic cultural mix.

Florida Keys holidays are ideal for those who want to experience a taste of the Caribbean mixed with the charm of America. Choose from luxurious private villas and family-friendly resorts, all of which include flights to suit you when booking with us.

Florida Keys Holidays Tips & Travel Advice

Florida Keys Things To Do

Surrounded by sparkling emerald waters, watersports are a must on a Florida Keys holiday. Whether that be a scuba diving lesson through the shipwreck trail or a thrilling jet ski tour, the opportunities to experience something new is endless. If water-based activities are not your thing, consider planning your trip around the many annual events Florida Keys has to offer, such as the Key West Bourbon, Blues and BBQ Festival. Held once a year, the event is all about food, whiskey and smooth blues with whiskey tastings and workshops, and is sure to be a highlight of your holiday to this stunning coastal destination. For animal lovers, a trip to the Florida Keys Wild Bird Rehabilitation Center is a must. See locally rescued birds including pelicans and owls that cannot be released into the wild, and that now live and thrive in this tranquil sanctuary.

Florida Keys Food & Drink

A trip to any part of Florida wouldn’t be complete without a thick slice of Key Lime Pie. Refreshingly zesty yet sweet, it’s no wonder this is considered to be the ‘national’ dessert of the Sunshine State. Be sure to also sample a rumrunner cocktail on your trip. Made with light and dark rum, this cocktail also mixes banana liqueur, blackberry liqueur and pineapple to create a refreshing, tropical delight. Many local restaurants are buffet style, giving you the best chance to try a variety of culinary delights from around the world cooked all in one go. For seafood lovers, you'll find an abundance of fresh fish and shellfish on the menu from conch fritters to rich and creamy chowders.

Florida Keys Attractions

If the stunning coast and its reef weren’t enough of an attraction, you’ll be glad to hear there are a number of sights to see in the Florida Keys. The city centres are lined with striking street art, animating plain buildings. Plan a visit to explore the Ernest Hemingway Home and Museum, an historic US landmark once lived in by the great writer himself. For those who love to dive and snorkel, it's safe to say there's an abundance of locations to do this along the coastline. Molasses Reef is a vibrant location filled with corals and marine life, while you can go on a glass-bottomed boat tour or kayak through John Pennekamp Coral Reef. Alternatively, if you're looking for a tranquil location for a slow walk, Dagny Johnson Key Largo Hammock Botanical State Park is a great spot for a stroll through nature.
