Tarpon feeding was fun. The shops were cool. But the service in the restaurant was not good. 40 minutes for food and it was hard to get a refill of their coffee. Though the coffee was very good, But the view from the restaurant was nice. Right on the water.

If you have not stopped here to feed (or just view) the tarpon, you don't know what you are missing. A wonderful experience. My wife was in heaven looking around the craft booths

We rented kayaks at Robbie's Kayak Shack and couldn't have had a nicer experience. The help was great and provided detailed information and maps on where to go. Even gave us a diver flag to use so we could get out and snorkel, and a cooler to borrow. Upon returning, we pulled in and they took care of everything -... More

Anytime I go to the Keys with or without out of state company (moved here 5 years ago to Coral Springs) Robbie's is a must. I love the experience of feeding the Tarpon... Priceless. The crafters there are great. I get my lucky sea beans ( taken to the casino and won twice $700 & $1200) but get so excited... More

Robbie's is one of those places you MUST stop for while driving down to Key West. It's in Islamorada on the gulf side. You buy a bucket of fish (well, five or six fish in a bucket) and head out onto the docks. The tarpon hang out in wait...and they are HUGE! Some looked at least ten feet or more.... More

My family and I were visiting islamorada for the weekend. We went over to feed the tarpons at Robbies. It was great the kids threw fish for the giant tarpons at the marina and had a blast. You absolutely must visit charlis shave ice and treats!! My whole family enjoyed their shave ice. The flavors are out of this world!!... More

Very nice little marina with plenty to see and do and while you are there, you have to hand feed the Tarpon. Nothing like having a 100lb Tarpon jumping out of the water and taking a bait fish right out of your hand. One over zealous Tarpon took my hand, up to my wrist, into his mouth while trying to...

Robbie's is a must on your way to or from Keys' destinations. It's become a little more touristy since I was last there, but worth a stop. There are outdoor souvenir shops, & a restaurant. We found a picnic table off the beaten path for snacks & beverages we had packed. The real reason for the stop is to observe... More

We were intrigued by the tarpon feeding offered here, and took outr chances....it was great!! For less than 20 bucks, we fed the tarpon for about 20 minutes, got splashed, laughed at each other, and got some amazing pictures of giant tarpon jumping out of the water to eat fish from my fiance's hand!

We have three young kids and so we stopped just to feed the tarpons. Our kids got a great kick out of it. The owner(perhaps manager) was very nice and stayed with us so the pelicans didn't bother us. He was very kind to answer our questions. We will definitely come back when our kids are older to enjoy some... More
