Getting There & Away
You can fly into the Marathon Airport (
305-289-6060; MM 50.5 bayside) or go Grey-
hound, which stops at the airport.
LOWER KEYS
The people of the Lower Keys vary between winter escapees and native Conchs. Some
local families have been Keys castaways for generations, and there are bits of Big Pine
that feel more Florida Panhandle than Overseas Hwy. It's an odd contrast, the islands get at
their most isolated, rural and quintessentially 'Keez-y' before opening onto (relatively)
cosmopolitan, heterogeneous (yet strongly homosexual) Key West.
Big Pine, Bahia Honda & Looe Keys
Big Pine is home to endless stretches of quiet roads, Key West employees who found a
way around astronomical real-estate rates, and packs of wandering Key deer. Bahia Honda
has everyone's favorite sandy beach, while the coral-reef system of Looe offers amazing
reef-diving opportunities.
