Key Largo to Islamorada

 As you journey south from mainland Florida and enter the sun-drenched embrace of the Upper Florida Keys, a distinct and irresistible part of the island lifestyle quickly emerges: the legendary tiki bar. More than just a place to grab a drink, these bamboo-laden, palm-fringed havens are the quintessential embodiment of Keys relaxation.

Here, under thatched roofs and amidst the gentle sway of hammocks, you'll find locals and visitors alike unwinding with potent, rum-infused concoctions, often with spectacular views of the turquoise waters. From lively spots with live music and bustling docks to hidden gems offering serene sunsets, the tiki bars of the Upper Keys (Key Largo, Islamorada, Tavernier, and beyond) are where the laid-back spirit of the islands truly comes alive. Get ready to kick off your shoes, feel the salty breeze, and discover your own slice of paradise, one perfectly crafted cocktail at a time.
