MARATHON FLORIDA KEYS Travel Guide - Florida Keys Land Cruise 2023

Welcome to our Florida Keys "Land Cruise" 2023! We spent 6 nights in Marathon and 3 nights in Key West, Florida. In todays video, we go to all of the best Bars, Breweries, Restaurants, and Happy Hours in Marathon and Islamorada! All while working remote full time at the Hampton Inn Marathon (and The Reach Curio Hotel by Hilton in Key West). On Day one, we go to Snappers in Key Largo, see the giant Lobster, Islamorada Brewery & Distillery, Key West Brewery Co., and dinner at Island Fish Company. The next day we tried Curley's Coffee, Sunset Bar and Grill (at the 7 Mile bridge), and Porkey's and dinner at Lazy Days South (OUR FAVORITE HOGFISH SANDWICH EVER). The next day, we tried Sparky's Landing (located at the Fairfield Marriott), Dockside Boot Key Harbor, and The Keys Fisheries (which was closed by the time we got there). The next day we got Starbucks, drove to Islamorada for fish tacos at Lorelei's Restaurant and got dinner to go from the original Lazy Days! Then we went shopping at the Isla Bella market (can't wait to stay at this resort one day!), flew the drone at the 7 mile bridge, and had a craft beer at Burdines Marina Bar and Grill, and had dinner back at Sparky's! On Friday, our last day, we went to Bongo's Botanical Beer Garden, Barnacle Barneys (one of our favorites), Porky's Happy Hour, explored the Isla Bella property, and had our THIRD visit at Lazy Days for our last hogfish sandwich!

[@Dak_Truth]

great video just found you guys :) glad you had fun in the keys!

[@abbieandjj]

Thank so much! We had the best time, it’s really one of our favorite spots to get away! Hope you stick around😊

[@williamrizzo1285]

Welcome to Marathon, we have lived here for the last 40 years. Those fish are called parrot fish.

[@abbieandjj]

You are very lucky… it’s quickly become one of our favorite places. Did we miss any good spots to check out??

[@planreview]

Keys Fisheries was your golden find. Hogfish, don’t pass on it. You’re welcome!
You missed the true locals spot, Brass Monkey.

[@abbieandjj]

Oooh Brass Monkey?? Will have to check it out! We’re heading back to the keys this month.. thanks!!

[@jrrii4240]

What bug spray were you using?

[@abbieandjj]

It was called No Natz. 10/10 recommend

[@mstracitrent]

Would you say the gnats or mosquitos were worse or both?

[@abbieandjj]

The gnats were much worse! I get eaten alive by anything and everything 😫 and hardly noticed any mosquitos! The gnats were viscous though… and their bites were painful

[@marysetanguay5819]

Travel guide?? I only saw 2 people drinking and eating. That's not a travel guide. At all. But hey, good job on the bars and restaurants descriptions. But still don't know any of the activities available in the keys

[@abbieandjj]

Touché. That’s a valid observation 😅 But thank you for watching!

[@georgeczapiewski8331]

What embarrassing thing happened at the coffee shop ?!?

[@abbieandjj]

Soo I parked my car, walked up to the window, got my coffees. Then a car beeped at me and I turned around to a line of cars behind me. I thought it was a walk up window… not a drive through 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🙃🙃

[@hannahpumpkins4359]

@@abbieandjj -That's adorable! The locals will quickly forgive you though...
