Of course we are planning to hit Islamorada - how about Bahia Honda or other spots. |
boardrider,
Things have changed a little down here in the keys. Anne's Beach is now the most popular beach in Islamorada. Whale Harbor has a $10.00 a day launch fee. Most people will ride at Whale Harbor if it is NW-N (very gusty) and NE as it has a better fetch. Anne's Beach works on E-SW, the same goes for Whale. Anne's Beach is only 10 miles S of Whale Harbor. Bahia Honda is the jewel of the keys. Flat and shallow on the inside w/ knee to waist high waves on SE-S winds. All the beaches face south in the keys so everywhere is ridable on E-SW winds. Please stay as far east or to the left of the swimming areas. Plenty of room.
Also check out The Otherside Boardsports in Islamorada. The shop that all the locals go to for there needs. Slingshot, Cabrihna, Windwing, North, Best, Spleene, Hyperlite and more. Routinely doing down-winders, and parties. Check in to find out what is going on now.

| That dolphin looks like it's taken a couple blows to the head... Guess it wouldn't stop peeing on the carpet. |
