We only had a short time at this beautiful beach! We needed the whole day or a week-end. I read it was the second most beautiful beach in north america. I can see why. The water was many shades of blue like the carribean. There was a lot to do if you have the time. It was well worth our... More

We came across this beach just by chance and absolutely loved it!! Crystal white sand and turquiose water...just what you imagine Florida Keys to be. We stayed in Islamorada and it was about an hours drive but well worth it! Make sure you have your bathers, towel and snorkel with you when visiting as the water is beautiful and you... More

I've seen some beaches round the world but this is just a natural oasis of calm. I'm glad we went out of our way and came here a couple of times whilst staying in Key West. Well worth the few $ to enter. Plenty of room and great amenties for all the family. Take your time and visit the areas... More

It's true it's the best spot for swimming and snorkling in the Keys. The bridge side is more protected from the wind and it is good for kids with shade, but beware of the strong current bridge side. $10

Amazing place close to Miami! if you go to miami and is looking for something else than the shoppings, the tip is a trip to the florida keys. You can stop at Baia Honda and spend the day here. The snorkeling is a must-do! totally worth the price!

After a short stay at Anne's beach in Islamorada, we decided to head down to Bahia Honda for some quality snorkeling. Got there just before 2PM and we missed the last snorkeling tour which was at 1:30. Luckily we had our own gears and decided to explore on our own. We went to the Atlantic side where map showed god... More

Everybody who goes to the Florida Keys should spend a day at Bahia Honda. This park has it all, beautiful beaches, marina, snorkeling excursions, beautiful scenery. This is what Florida used to look like before the tourist invasion. This area is all about nature. Don't look for cabanas and drinks with umbrellas. If you want natural beauty, go here.

Visited this park on 5/12/13, the week before Mother's Day. The day we visited was very crowded. Waited in line on the main highway 15 minutes before we could even enter the park. Price was higher than advertised for a van (Dodge Caravan) plus the 50 cents per person. It cost us $11 for 6 adults which isn't bad. Park... More

This place was spectacular! It was a little choppy when we went, so we couldn't do any snorkeling. Beautiful views, pretty water, and very quiet little beach.

We stopped to view the State Park and Beach and ended up eating lunch at the concession stand. It was excellent. We had the "special" of the day which was a pulled pork sandwich with barbeque sauce. It was huge and delicious! The park itself was nice. We drove past the beaches and stopped and took some pictures. The sea... More
