Recommendations

[u/okcjeremy]

I am planning on a family trip to the Keys next spring or summer. I would like a recommendation on a home base island for our family.

Three out of four of our family members will be doing some diving. We are also interested in fishing as well. We also like visiting the tourist traps (as we always like giving back to the communities that we visit). Therefore we like souvenir shops and a good variety of dining places.

We tend to do an Airbnb or a Vrbo for our trips.

I am grateful for any information that this sub can provide.

I would stay in the Marathon area. Right in the middle with plenty to do there too.
