Rum Away to the Florida Keys - Tiki Style
Rum Away to the Florida Keys - Tiki Style
As you venture further south, beyond the more developed stretches and toward the rustic charm of the Lower Florida Keys, you'll discover a collection of tiki bars that offer a distinctly different, yet equally enchanting, slice of paradise.
This area, spanning from Big Pine Key to Cudjoe, Sugarloaf, and the surrounding smaller islands, is characterized by its wilder nature and a more local, unpretentious vibe. The tiki bars here often reflect this character: they might be smaller, more tucked away, and beautifully integrated into the natural landscape. Imagine sipping a cool, refreshing cocktail under a simple, authentic thatched roof, with the sounds of local wildlife and gentle breezes rustling through native trees, rather than bustling crowds.
These are the spots where the true, laid-back spirit of the Florida Keys feels most palpable. They are havens for genuine relaxation, offering a chance to truly disconnect and embrace the slower, more authentic pace of island life. Discover your new favorite hidden gem among the Lower Keys' inviting and uniquely charming tiki scene.
