One thing that’s really nice about this anchorage is that we’ve been the only ones to anchor overnight while there. Like Cayo Costa, there’s lot to do at Keeywaydin as well-you can ding to shore and enjoy the beach and clear blue water (the water is much clearer down south), if you have kayaks take a paddle around the Rookery Bay National Estuarine Reserve and take your tender ashore for dinner at Snook Inn on Marco Island. ![]() The only thing separating you from the sunset on the Gulf of Mexico is a thin little strip of land. As you know, we frequent Cayo Costa a lot and love all the various things you can do (like ride bikes on the island, visit the Love Canal, have lunch at Cabbage Key, etc.) but the view at Keewaydin is by far more spectacular. For us, it takes about the same amount of time (5-6 hours) to get to Keewaydin as it does Cayo Costa. Many folks around the marina have asked us about Keeywaydin as an anchoring destination and we always recommend it. We had been wanting to get back there ever since and decided that we would go this year for the holiday break. We’ve been to Keeywaydin one other time for Memorial Day Weekend 2014 and we had a blast both times. Last year, we took Blue Turtle, along with Sea Crazy (Randy’s father and April) to Sarasota and two years ago we took our first trip to Keewaydin Island. ![]() Things typically slow down in the corporate world and my clients are usually out of the office celebrating the holidays with their families, and with Corey being out of school it makes it a great time for us to get away.
