Florida Keys Beaches

Beaches of the Keys

As with any other part of Florida, the Florida Keys attracts people looking for a beach. Although most of the beaches in the Florida Keys are fairly small, (you can't have a large beach on an island less than a mile wide), you'll find great snorkeling just offshore on most beaches on the ocean side of the Florida Keys.
