A quick jaunt from the Miami airport, Marathon, in the heart of the Florida Keys, is a world away from the hustle and bustle of daily life.
Let yourself go in the perfect small-town getaway destination where you’ll be greeted like an old friend. Relax and enjoy the sunset on the Old Seven Mile Bridge, where Henry Flagler’s Overseas Railroad once steamed across the water. Take in the natural serenity of Crane Point Hammock and Pigeon Key. Visit with turtles and dolphins at The Turtle Hospital and Dolphin Research Center.
But, what you’re really coming for is the fishing, right? Well, whether you’re looking to fill the trophy wall or the dinner plate, Marathon offers unparalleled fishing opportunities.
We have multiple venues and species of fish, allowing for nearly unlimited options that vary from season to season. Offshore, we target dolphin, tuna and wahoo. On the Atlantic reef and wrecks or in the Gulf of Mexico and Florida Bay, it’s grouper, cobia, permit, snapper, mackerel, kingfish, amberjack and more.
Sailfish and tarpon seasons are highly popular and attract anglers from around the globe for outstanding sport fishing. There are many tournaments to join, if you’re so inclined.
To round out your fishing adventures, get up close and personal with some very large and toothy critters. Shallow-water, catch-and-release shark fishing in the magnificent and serene Florida Bay is truly an extraordinary experience for anglers of all ages and abilities! It’s way better than going to the aquarium!
Top off your day of fishing with a view of the world-famous Florida Keys sunset from atop the Old Seven Mile Bridge, followed by a dinner of your fresh catch cooked to perfection at any one of our fabulous restaurants.
We invite you to get away from it all and reel in some memories in Marathon Florida Keys! We’re closer than you think!
