mother of all raft-up

What Fun That Was :)

The sandbar is the mother of all raft-up locations. One who has been there has seen both sides of the channel were jam packed, people and boats. Depending upon the time of year (Memorial Day, Labor Day, 4th of July) it is PACKED. There must be 2500 boats in an area where 1000 boats is full.

Sandbar Regatta

Islamorada

Easily accessible, the beach is also a popular anchorage for small boats, Jet Skis and kayaks. There are groups at these Regattas. These people are there at 9am on Saturday, Sunday or holiday. They put in a full day and night of partying. It is the place to party and people watch. My crew and I party pretty hard but these guys put us to shame. Nothing like hanging out at the "sand bar" with friends and family.

Six degrees of separation

Islamorada Sandbar

Six degrees of separation is the theory that anyone on the planet can be connected to any other person on the planet through a chain of acquaintances that has no more than five intermediaries. The theory was first proposed in 1929 by the Hungarian writer Frigyes Karinthy in a short story called "Chains."

Florida Keys

The best online source for information

Long ago, the Florida Keys were coral patch reefs. With the change in climates, the water level fell and the coral reefs were exposed to the sun and the wind. The coral died and created a base for a land formation. Dangling off the southern coast of Florida is a tropical archipelago stretching 150 miles. Afabled region once knew only to pirates, bootleggers, treasure seakers, Indians and Spanish slavers. Key Largo, Florida is America's most popular dive travel destination. The Florida Keys are home to the largest living coral reef system in the continental United States. The reef offer spectacular panoramas of brightly colored corals and fish. The Reef is an inexact pastime. It embraces underwater exploration, fish watching, shipwrecks, underwater photography or to be in a tranquil place.

    I was there once with friends who live on Plantation Key, and will never forget it, despite many other boating experiences in the Keys. And did you know they went and changed the name of Holiday Isle to Postcard inn??!! It was a world famous brand!
