Golf in the Florida Keys
Here's your "Perfect Florida Keys Golf Itinerary" in three words: Stay in Miami.Because an hour or so after you leave Miami headed south on A1A, the United States of America turns into a long, skinny strip of fossilized coral a wahoo could leap across.There's a party every few mile markers, which is how you tell where you are in the Keys, and you can drink a margarita almost any time you please.There are golf courses, but they are few and far between and they are mostly scrunched in amidst mangrove swamps, palm trees and the Atlantic Ocean on one side and Gulf of Mexico on the other.

perfect trip
From Key Largo 135 miles south to Key West, you will find countless islands connected by the Overseas Highway, including the Seven-Mile Bridge, and endless entertainment options other than golf.The Keys are better suited to fishing, diving, boating and the aforementioned Margaritas, but the hard-core golfer will find an outlet, if he or she looks hard.Let's assume you're starting at Key West, and our golf itinerary will therefore begin at Mile Marker 1, in the historic, eclectic - and expensive - city at the end of the road.
