Coral Reef & the Keys

Snorkel the only living coral reef in the continental U.S.

The Florida Keys

The Overseas Highway runs 113 miles out to sea, hopping island to island all the way to Key West. Alongside it lies the only living coral barrier reef in the continental United States — a shallow, sunlit world you can reach with a mask and fins.

Snorkel a living reef

The reef off Key Largo and Islamorada is protected inside John Pennekamp and the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary. Warm, clear, shallow water makes it perfect for first-time snorkelers, with parrotfish, sea turtles and staghorn coral just off the boat.

Island camping

Waking up in the Keys is different — turquoise water on both sides of the road, palm-shaded sites and a sunset celebration every night. Member parks here range from oceanfront resorts to laid-back marina camps, all within a short drive of the reef.

Fishing, sunsets and Key West

Between reef dives, the Keys deliver world-class flats and offshore fishing, the sportfishing capital in Islamorada, and the mile-marker-zero energy of Key West. Book early — the islands have limited sites and they fill fast in season.
