Why Is the Ocean So Clear in Islamorada?

While the Florida Keys aren’t known for long stretches of natural sandy beaches like those on the mainland, Islamorada offers its own kind of paradise. Think hidden coves, sun-dappled shallows, and tranquil spots perfect for snorkeling, paddleboarding, or simply soaking in the sun. The clarity of the water makes it ideal for spotting marine life—from vibrant fish to graceful rays gliding beneath the surface.
