About Islamorada
Long ago, violet sea snails called Janthina colored
the shores deep lavender. When Spanish explorers discovered this strange
sight, they named the Islands islas moradas, or purple isles.
Located just 75 miles from Miami Airport and 80 miles from Key West, Islamorada
is the perfect spot for your home in the Florida Keys. The average temperature
is 80 degrees and 78 degrees for the water. Sitting between the sparkling dear
waters of Florida Bay and the Gulf of Mexico, it is bestowed with a Coral Reef
three to five miles offshore that is filled with spectacular life! It is this
very reef that has contributed to the chronicling of some of the most romantic
history from pirates to shipwrecks to sunken Spanish Galleons.
Known as the "Sport Fishing Capital of the World", it has the largest
fishing fleet per square mile anywhere in the world. Fish for "big game" offshore,
or use your finesse for back country fishing or just bridge fish. Almost
any month of the year you can find a fishing tournament.There are other
ways to enjoy our pristine waters. Take advantage of parasailing, wind
surfing, kayaking, or a back county ecotour.You can just lay back and take
advantage of the lush tropical surroundings, or visit our artisan villages,
shop boutiques or mix a colorful sunset celebration with a range of dining
tastes.
