Sandman ... while it may be early to start thinking of this ... the Keys are broken down into five districts with five chambers of commerce - Key Largo, Islamorada, Marathon, Big Pine Key & the Lower Keys, and Key West ... each area has it's own distinct nature (if you spend enough time down there you can see it) ... but if you like to be in out of the way places, I have found the Lower Keys the area where you can steal away the most ... it's much more quiet of course than Key West, Marathon and the Upper Keys ... and has some great backcountry action ... some of the basins behind Big Pine Key and Cudjoe Key are breathtaking and have great fishing. If you like to head across Florida Bay and fish Flamingo and the Everglades, then the Upper Keys are easier for making the trip across ... all areas offer great places to eat and stay, and great guides ... and you can easily drive to most anywhere within an hour during the early hours before traffic gets heavy ... but of course Key West offers access to the Marquesas which are amazing as well as other great fishing ... it may be worth spending a little time experiencing each area of the Keys districts to really get an understanding of what feels best to you. If you want to hook up with some realtors, I know a few that won't steer you wrong and are from fishing families so they know what's going on.
