5 star ratingThis marina is great! Came with a few friends for MDW and within 5 minutes on the phone, we had a boat locked down. It was super easy and the boat was new and in great shape! Perfect for the sandbar adventures that we had planned. The whole team is very helpful and pretty funny as well. Couldnt have asked for an easier situation.We will 100% be using this marina to rent our boats every year!!

5 star ratingMy Husband & I were on Miss Islamorada for our 20th Wedding Anniversary on January 27th, 2021, it was SO Beautiful out and we had the most Amazing Full Day of Fishing! We had the Best experience and So much fun, we caught So many different types of fish. Ray was so helpful and knowledgeable, he took his time before we went into the deep water to show me how to use the reel and basically show me how to fish myself and not bother my husband so much.. I haven't been fishing in years. I highly recommend Miss Isalmorada and definitley hope to see Ray again, we will be definitely back. They provided everything needed to fish, just get there and bring some food and drinks.

5 star ratingMy grandson's saltwater fly-fishing triumph. Mt grandson and I did a full day charter with Capt Nate Blackburn. We targeted Salt water fly-fishing. My grandson really wanted a Shark. Capt Nate put him on at least 7 sharks and he had 2 solid takers. He also caught Barracuda, Jack Cravelle, Redfish, Snapper and a large Sheepshead, all on his fly rod. I had a blast with Spinning tackle. We caught 40 to 50 fish overall. We saw a Bald Eagle and a large saltwater crocodile! We have a Life time of memories. Capt Nate knows how to fish this area!
