Shellers are the Best People
This beautiful charm bracelet with dangling seashells was gifted to me by a fellow sheller.
Anne’s Beach, Islamorada
If you’re looking for an OK beach in the Florida Keys, Anne’s Beach in Islamorada (or Lower Matecumbe) might be what you’re looking for.
Janthina (Purple Sea Snails) in the Florida Keys
When the winds blow, the shorelines of the Florida Keys tend to get sprinkled with delicate, beautiful purple sea snails known as janthina janthina. That’s not a typo, they’re so pretty, you have to say the name twice.
Sanibel Island Beach Resort is Open
As Sanibel and Captiva recover from Hurricane Ian, restaurants and resorts are opening slowly but surely. I recently stayed at the Sanibel Island Beach Resort on Middle Gulf and loved the experience.
No Shells, But Mahi’s On The Menu
The boys went fishing off Islamorada. That’s a dolphin fish (also known as a MAHI MAHI).
OceanView Inn, Islamorada
Not much luck shelling from the shore in Islamorada today, but I did spend a lovely evening at the OceanView Inn .
Anne’s Beach Gave Up Some Beauties
I got to enjoy a quick visit to Anne’s Beach today in Lower Matecumbe and I found a few beauties.
Sunrise at Three Waters Resort
Spent a weekend in the Keys, Islamorada to be specific. The views were amazing and the sunrises were even more spectacular.
Amara Cay Resort in Islamorada
Amara Cay Resort in Islamorada has long been a favorite destination. I visited when it opened on summer 2015 at the site of the former Hampton Inn (and Outback Steakhouse) at Mile Marker 80.
