There’s no denying that the Florida Keys are a nature lover’s paradise—but sometimes it’s hard to see that from the Highway. Nature in the Keys is on the water—be it floating over shallow sandbar in the backcountry or snorkeling on the only living coral reef in the continental United States.

Join Captain Zak on the Casual Monday for a relaxing morning or afternoon in nature. You’ll cruise out of town towards what the locals call the “backcountry,” a string of islands and sandbars not connected to the other Keys or US 1.
