Rented bicycles and biked over the Old Seven Mile Bridge which was AMAZING! Take your time and stop along the way to look down over the edge of the bridge. We saw sea turtles, rays, sharks, large schools of fish. Unfortunately, there was no guided tour available on Pigeon Key they day we went. We made our way around to... More

On the day we went, there was no guided tour, only self-guided with an information flyer. I would recommend the guided tour, if possible. I think it would've made it more interesting. You can also walk... More
