we are going to Orlando on with the kids and we are seriously considering to bring our ski at the keys for a day or 2. This is more for research purposes. We want to evaluate if the keys are just as good as Bimini, so we can decide for 2020 if we are going to cross or if we will stay in Florida.

They are very difficult and you need to know the area exceptionally well, I live here and go every weekend, if you let me know the dates i can lead the group in to marvin, and the other 2 locations. there are many sand bars and anyone who wants to go should be accompanied by a person that knows the area well

Yes. We are staying in north key largo for first part of week. We are then moving towards marathon for later part of week. We have plotted tons of stuff and right now have about 500 miles worth of trips planned.

I dialed 954-236-9292, and was re-directed to another office - they gave me the 800 number. Maybe try the 954 number.
