Great Tiki bar and 3 dive shops near by, and great dining very near by. Short scenic drive to Key West or Marathon(22 or 26 miles). It is a beautiful drive with water and island views on both sides the entire way.

Beautiful outdoor relaxing areas on
the dock by open ocean.

We are about as close as you can get to the best reef in all of the Keys, Looe Key. It has made all of the top ten scuba diving lists in the past ten years. There is also a protected bay that is perfect for the small craft we have in almost all wind conditions. Plus, I have been scuba diving since I was 12 and made over 700 dives on the reefs and wrecks in the surrounding waters, therefore I can offer:

The last thing you want to do is use trial and error when you have just one week! BUT... We only offer advice when asked :) We have never had a complaint of any kind. Soon we will not be advertising on eBay and will only accept return guests and their referrals. :)
