Ground Site. One of only two keys open to camping in Florida Bay. This site is popular with boaters and can be a very busy area, especially on weekends. Snorkelers should be cautious: use a dive flag with a buddy. And be alert for other boats in the area.
Access - Accessible to powerboats at all tides. Not recommended for paddlers due to long distance over open water, unless launching from Key Largo. The dock will accommodate several vessels. Located five miles west of Upper Florida Keys.
