5 Sights & Landmarks in Islamorada That You Shouldn't Miss

March 14, 2022 Agatha Simes

Six islands in the Florida Keys comprise the village of Islamorada, known for its prime sport fishing. Rent a boat or participate in a guided tour to fish, snorkel, or swim with marine life. Fresh seafood is the hallmark of the Islamorada dining scene. Visit a tropical-themed bar to soak in the full Florida Keys experience with a frozen umbrella drink. For a dose of culture, take in fine art and music while strolling through the Morada Way Art and Cultural District.

My wife and I came across Pasta's art work at one of the Islamorada restaurant's. We went to the gallery and were really impressed with how he portrays the fish and landscapes of the area. Pasta and his wife took the time to talk to us and help find exactly what we were looking for. They were very cool and passionate about his work. He even touched up and played with one of the paintings to make it just what I was looking for. We ended up buying two pieces to bring home with us. Highly recommend stopping by and if you're lucky - meeting the artist!

Hurricane Monument

monument to the hundreds who died in the Great Labor Day Hurricane of 1935.

Reviewed By Localgirl252 - Menomonee Falls, United States

This keystone monument contains the ashes of WWI veterans who were working to build Henry Flagler’s overseas railroad. Because it was Labor Day weekend, the train sent from mainland Florida to rescue the workers was delayed. On September 2 1935 a tremendous hurricane wiped out Lower Matecumbe Key killing the veterans waiting to be rescued. Winds of 200 mph and a 18’ total surge crossed the Key.
