Welcome to the Lower Keys!
Ramrod Key was renamed for a shipwreck in the early 19th century…from there one has easy access to Looe Key National Marine Sanctuary, a snorkeler/divers paradise. Be sure to hit the Ramrod swimming hole, Picnic Island, and the plush Little Palm Island Resort and Spa for lunch. From mile marker 27.5 you are under 3 miles from Big Pine Key and the National Key Deer Refuge. Be sure to have lunch at the NO Name Pub Near Henry Flagler’s railroad and leave a signed dollar bill on the wall! Two miles in the opposite direction you can visit the Great White Heron Wildlife Refuge (1938) amidst 200,000 acres of water and islands know as “the backcountry”. You will be only 27 miles from historic Key West, and yes they have Uber! So follow the frigate bird to the Lower Florida Keys and be sure to navigate to my website www.lowerkeyshome.com
