Marathon stretches from Long Key to the famous Seven Mile Bridge in the heart of the Florida Keys and offers so many attractions, tasty restaurants, beautiful parks, and beaches to explore. From the beautiful park-like setting of Long Key, where you can fish and kayak, to Pigeon Key, a small island full of historical buildings and a museum.
Take a leisurely hike on the nature trails of Crane Point and visit Crane Point Museum, home to one of the last untouched tropical hardwood hammocks. For more fun in nature, explore the thatch palm forests of Curry Hammock State Park.
Enjoy many awesome interactive marine experiences such as swimming with dolphins at The Dolphin Research Center in Grassy Key, petting sea turtles and touring the rehabilitation center at The Turtle Hospital, and feeding Stingrays at Aquarium Encounters. All these special encounters are suitable for both adults and children.
Depending on when you visit Marathon, your experience will vary a bit. Luckily, the beach is always a great option in Marathon! The beaches of Marathon are special, and all are worth a visit. You’ll have the chance to choose between the Atlantic Ocean and the Gulf of Mexico, which is a cool feature of visiting the Keys.
Bahia Honda State Park lies 12 miles to the south, and this pristine sandy beach is lined with Palm Trees making it a tropical oasis.

Much of the beauty of Marathon goes on under the sea. America’s only living coral reef beckons divers and snorkelers. The Thunderbolt Wreck, the perfect artificial reef, draws experienced divers from afar. Across the Seven Mile Bridge is Looe Key, a coral reef within the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary featuring excellent diving and snorkeling around the reefs and the 210-foot wreck of Adolphus Busch.
Looe Key also hosts a one-of-a-kind annual underwater music festival. Visit the History of Diving Museum to learn the story of man’s quest to explore and venture under the sea. The Florida Keys are a major sports fishing destination, and it is here that you can enjoy the thrill of non-stop, rod-bending, action-packed adventure. Experience world-class fishing on a chartered boat from a local marina. Vacation Boat Rentals and Main Attraction offer the best in offshore fishing. They know these waters and offer the experience of a lifetime. Cruise the turquoise waters in an unbeatable offshore fishing experience, day or night, fishing the reef and the wrecks, or paddle a kayak peacefully through the pristine creeks and sample a fresh catch of the day at one of the many waterfront restaurants. Be sure to visit in March for the annual premier Seafood Festival!
