Library Beach

Most tourists gloss right over this hidden gem. Great, convenient spot in the heart of Islamorada. You can find this spot just behind the library on the bay side. The water is always very clear and you’ll see many tropical fish if you’re observant. This park is great for picnics, as it has grassy soft areas to for laying out a cloth. Stop by the Trading Post first and grab some dips or sandwiches to snack on. There are also swings and a small playground. Stand up paddle boarders and kayaks love to use this as a launching pad.
Beach: Medium sun, small hard sand beach. Bathrooms and showers

Overall: 8/10 MM: 81.8

Anne’s Beach – Natural Sand Beach 

Netflix’s Bloodline fans may recognize this one… One of the most popular free beaches in the area. Anne’s beach is an awesome little adventure every time. Parking can be a pain on busy days, but there is overflow on bayside near the bridge. This park has several small more private beaches. Mangroves and trails separate most areas, with a few hidden pavilions. Get there early if you have an eye on a spot, most people stay for the duration. Fishing is not allowed at Anne’s beach park, but usually you will see some wind sports or stand up paddle boards.
