An Introduction to Marathon, Florida Keys

Spread across thirteen (13) islands, on the archipelago of the Florida Keys, the city of Marathon offers some of the most cherishing road trip experiences in Florida. Located in the middle of the Florida Keys, the city spreads over Boot Key, Knight's Key, Fat Deer Key, Key Vaca, Crawl Key, Long Point Key, and Grassy Key islands. The unique barrier reef, the immaculate beaches, and the crystal clear waters are the major crowd pullers, whereas loggerhead turtles nest at Sombrero Beach and Coco Plum Beach, the sandy shoreline and mangrove creek in Curry Hammock State Park, and the interactive demos in shallow lagoon promise to keep the visitors busy all through the year.

For vacationer contemplating an exciting vacation, the islands of Marathon have got the following stuff.

  1. Learn to Protect Turtles at the Turtle Hospital: There are around seven sea turtle species around the world and five of them can be found in the Sunshine State. The Turtle Hospital is a non-profit organization aimed at protecting and rehabilitating the endangered sea turtles. Take a 90-minute educational tour that would equip you with important information about protecting these endangered species. Learn how the actions and activities of humans pose a threat to these turtles and have ultimately put them at this place.
  2. Explore Deep Water at Sombrero Beach: Sombrero Beach on Marathon is said to be one of the best-kept secrets in the keys. For islanders, it is a perfect picnic spot with plenty of swimming and sea adventures. What else? You get to play beach games, go kayaking, swimming, snorkeling, or simply lie back and soak up the sun. From April through October, the beach is a nesting site for loggerhead turtles. A few meters from your Marathon cottage rentals are the diving sites. While your family will prefer to take rest in the shady picnic areas, you, being an adventure junkie, should try your hands at some of the water-related activities and frolic in the calm water. With dusk arrives, the entire neighborhood gears up for the mesmerizing sunset views.
  3. Interact with Dolphins at Dolphin Research Center: Spend an hour or the entire day learning about sea lions and interacting with dolphins. Dolphin Research Center is a 90,000 sq. ft. series of saltwater lagoons nurturing dolphins and many other sea creatures. As of 2018, the Center is home to 25 bottlenose dolphins and 1 Atlantic spotted dolphin. Various interactive programs are organized for visitors. Before playing or swimming alongside the clever mammals, learn about their playful nature. Let your kids touch and get tinged by the marine mammals and feel the smooth skin as they nuzzle your face and hand. Weekends and public holidays see people flocking in large numbers.
  4. Uninhabited, Unrivaled, and Untouched Curry Hammock State Park: Placed along both sides of US 1, Curry Hammock State Park hosts a multitude of activities including beachcombing, fishing, kayaking, camping, and many more. Even the most discerning travelers and the most frenetic wanderlust would not mind taking a pause to appreciate and admire this gorgeous, untarnished sanctuary. The state park is the largest unoccupied parcel of land between Big Pine Key and Key Largo. The park protects Rockland hammocks, seagrass beds, and mangrove swamp essential to the ecosystem of the Florida Keys.
  5. Take in Artifacts and Local Wildlife at Crane Point Museum & Nature Center: Visit this beautiful nature reserve and stumble upon remnants that provide evidence of pre-Columbian civilization. The Crane Point Museum and Nature Center is the perfect combination of nature and history. The museum – the 63-acre property - has nature trails that give you access to numerous trails, including rugged ones.
  6. Unearth Underwater Treasures at Sombrero Reef: Did you know that Marathon houses one of the largest barrier reefs on the planet? Adventure aficionados can get hold of one of the Sombrero Reef Snorkeling tours and explore the underwater treasures.
