Water Sports in the Florida Keys 


The Florida Keys are a collection of islands of the southeastern peninsula. Geographically, they are known as a “coral archipelago” or “island group”. This chain of tropical islands are found off the southern coast of Florida and divide the Gulf of Mexico from the Atlantic Ocean.

Home to island living and a plethora of water activities, the Florida Keys makes an ideal place to purchase a vacation home or relocate. Another big plus is Florida Keys real estate holds its value, because of its limited space.

Aside from the night life and beachfront, there a number of water sports to keep both homeowners and guests busy all year round. That’s right, “winter” in the Keys rarely dips below 70 degrees.

Fishing:

You name it, the Florida Keys have it. Spear fishing. Sport fishing. Charter fishing. Casual fishing from beaches, docs and bridges. Florida Keys real estate boasts great fishing from January through December.

Diving:

Whether you are into skin diving or shallow water diving, snorkeling or even scuba, the Florida Keys has it. There is no limit to the diving. Taking a boat out into the Gulf of Mexico or into the Atlantic is an adventure in the making. Both reef and wreck diving are at-hand.

Kayaking:

Like to shape up without having to run a treadmill in the gym? A piece of Florida Keys real estate will give you access to the great hobby of kayaking. You can kayak for pleasure, getting away from it all or do a little fishing. Get some friends together and you have a great group activity, maybe even a picnic.

Parasailing:

Feeling adventurous? Try parasailing. Get a bird’s eye view of the Keys while having a blast. This sea/air going sport is perfect for those that want to try something out of the ordinary. Be sure to bring a friend and a camera to catch the moments.

Paddleboarding:

If you want to experience the water in a completely different way, try paddleboarding. With a long surfboard and a paddle, you can glide around the Keys. Its perfect for getting a tan and working your upper body while doing it.
