Golf:
-
Keys Gate...
(305) 230-0362...Cost $20.00 to $45.00. Go north on Route l
about ten miles. Turn right at the first light, which is Palm
Drive in Florida City. Palm Drive is about a block or two after
the McDonalds on your right. This is the same road you would
take to go to the Outlet Mall. If you turned left you would be
headed for Everglades National Park. Golfers have told me that
the restaurant associated with the course is nice and not expensive.
A good place for breakfast.
-
Redlands Golf and
Country Club. Phone number (305) 247-8503, 124451 S.W. 177th
Avenue. Homestead, FL..Cost $20.00 to $45.00.

South of Moon Bay is Key
Colony Beach Golf course in Marathon at Mile Marker 53 l/2.
this is a nine hole Public course. Near MM 53 l/2 turn at the
light onto Key Colony Beach, then make your first right. There
are signs. Phone number is (305) 289-1533. Open 7:30 am to
7:00 pm daily. No tee times. Clubs and pull carts
available.
-
There is a course at Chica
Lodge just south of Moon Bay on the Ocean Side. I do not
believe they are open to the public. You can call them free from
Moon Bay. There is also another course at Ocean Reef just north
of Moon Bay on Card Sound Road. President Bush and Al Gore
frequently golf here. I am not sure if it is open to the public.
If it is the green fees may be a bit pricey.

Things to do/see:
-
John
Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park, the first underwater park in the United
States. The park and the Key Largo National Marine Sanctuary are 20 miles
long and contain about 103 square nautical miles altogether. It's about a
one hour drive from Miami but a world totally apart from any man-made
metropolis. The residents at Pennekamp are more than 500 species of fish
and 55 varieties of coral, along with 27 species of
"Gorgonians," which are marine life forms related to anemones.
-
Tennis
courts, saunas, a private boat slip, and a dock for fishing and salt water
swimming
-
Heated
Adult and Children's Pool
-
Recreation
Room - Ping pong, sauna, extra bathrooms and showers. Grills, fish
cleaning station. Picnic area on dock under thatched roof. Sun bathing
deck with great water view.
- Snorkel or scuba dive at Pennekamp State
Park. (Mile Market 102.5, Ocean Side), which lies partially in the
Atlantic Ocean off Key Largo with one of the coast's best maintained
reefs. Visitors can snorkel or scuba through extensive coral formations
from charter excursions or privately rented vessels. There also is a glass
bottom boat tour over waters that are clearest in the U.S. The park also
offers nature trails and other attractions on land. Several local
operators run reef trips.
- Dolphin Cove Research Center (Mile Marker
102, Bay Side) just two miles from Moon Bay, visitors swim with dolphins
or take ecological tours of Florida Bay and the Everglades
- Former President George Bush loves
pursuing the feisty bonefish with his private guide from Islamorada. He is
just one of hundreds of experienced and neophyte sport fishermen who
search the shallow waters between Key Largo and Key West looking for
bonefish, tarpon and permit, most of which are caught and released. They
have the added experience of getting into nature while threading through a
maze of mangrove islands away from the highway and civilization. Charter
companies, guides and rentals are available all through the Keys.
- Daily shows at the Theater of the Sea
(Mile Marker 84.5, Ocean Side) feature dolphins, sea lions and other
marine mammals. The facility is open year round.
- One of the best ways to appreciate the
beauty and natural wonder of the Keys, especially away from the roads and
buildings, is to slip quietly along in a kayak among mangrove outgrowths.
- Offshore fishing:
One of the fundamental reasons people have traveled to the Keys is the
prime fishing opportunities in adjacent waters. Charter trips may be
booked for anywhere from a few hours to three or four days. Some fishermen
like to catch and release; Others go out for enough to feed their families
and friends. While charters are best arranged ahead of time, they can be
made on the spot.
- Not all fishing requires fancy gear or a
guide or even a boat. Plenty of fish are caught by those who take their
poles out on one of the many bridges that connect the necklace of islands.
Local tackle shops and stores are only too happy to give advice on the
type of bait to use, and there's plenty of room as well as company plying
the tides from the bridges.
- Whether it's aboard a sailboat, a small
motor skiff, a glass-bottom excursion vessel, a catamaran sunset or snorkeling
cruise, a diving boat, an island ferry or one of the classic large sailing
schooners every Keys visitor should go out to sea.
