Going to Islamorada, FL, anything interesting to look for?

[littleneckhalfshell]

the end of February I am heading down to Islamorada, FL, in the upper keys.
the reason for the trip, is my son is getting married down there.
Any suggestions regarding swinging my detector while I am down there?
What are my chances of finding something? as I understand it, it is not really a big tourist kind of beach area.

Anne's beach has alot of visitors each day every day. Tourist wearing jewelry etc. Shallow water, narrow beach. Fishing is good always except when windy. Have fun!

Scan through this, and the Beach and Shallow water threads. There are lots of little tid-bits of information available for your trip.

Good luck.

Three Things: Visit a shop called Somewhere in Time in Islamorada. It's like a treasure museum, only free.

There is also a Diving Museum in Islamorada if u are interested.

Phone Bahia Honda State Park and ask if they will permit u to detect their beach. It's by far the nicest beach in the Keys.

Hi guys,

Jeez, while it'll be hard to top vulcan007's input . . .

Did some research a little while back because my dad has a house in the keys. Ann's Beach is busy, but it is rock covered with a little sand. You will have to be very patient to hunt there. I have some information on almost all the beaches here:

Keep your discrimination low and dig everything that's not small iron . I don't know what kind of detector you have but if it will handle the wet salty sand below the high tide line going at low tide is always good.


Good luck.
