About Islamorada
Islamorada (MM 85) is one of the most popular spots in the Keys.
It’s not call a "Key," because it’s actually made up of
six different islands including Upper Matecumbe Key, Lower Matecumbe
Key, Plantation Key, Windley Key and two offshore islands: Indian
Key and Lignumvitae Key. Islamorada has a reputation as the Sport
Fishing Capital of the World, and it's well-earned. Here you'll find
several extremely skilled recreational fishing captains. Islamorada
is also known as a place where you can swim with dolphins, enjoy
the History of Diving Museum, feed tarpon, get married, and have
your honeymoon. As you’ll find along any of the Florida Keys, there
are many places to have a drink, enjoy the warm tropical breeze and
listen to a local band.
