Key Largo Florida - Things To Do & Attractions In Key Largo FL

Key Largo, situated in the upper Florida Keys 90 minutes south of Miami, is a top destination for scuba diving, snorkeling, and fishing with clear, blue waters and abundant access to coral reefs.

Known as the “Diving Capital of the World,” Key Largo’s bucket-list dive spots include Molasses Reef, the famed Christ of the Abyss statue, which rests under the water’s surface within the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary, and John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park, the country’s first undersea park, which offers snorkeling tours, glass-bottom boat tours, and a plethora of family-friendly outdoor recreation opportunities both on and off the water.

History and movie buffs can cruise on the African Queen, the steamboat featured in the 1951 film by the same name starring Katharine Hepburn and Humphrey Bogart. On land, explore the miles of peaceful trails and lush scenery at Dagny Johnson Key Largo Hammock Botanical State Park.

Places to stay on Key Largo range from hotels and resorts to vacation rentals. Divers can even choose to sleep below the surface at Jules’ Undersea Lodge, the world’s only underwater hotel where guests scuba dive to their rooms.
