2/11/2015 Sunshine Key, Key Largo and Knights Key

The Biblical Snow and Ice in New England and mid Atlantic continues to have a dramatic affect on camping in the Keys.  On our way to Naval Air Station Key West Campground for 10 days,  we call ahead as an FYI since you can't make reservations (not needed as they have never been full).  FOR FIRST TIME IN HISTORY - THEY ARE FULL!  And so is everywhere else in the keys.  After dozens of frantic phone calls, we find our first night open at Sunshine Key
Our Camper at Kings Camp, Key Largo

Campground and the next two nights on Key Largo at Kings Camp.  Both are very nice and it's hard to figure why Sunshine charges $120 a night and Kings charges only $65.  We liked Kings better as it is smaller and we had a nice view of the Gulf from our site.  Nice to walk around the neighborhood across the street on the Ocean side and sit in tiki hut for glorious sunsets.

Our new local friend Diane (who went to school with owner of Knights Key Campground in Marathon) was able to get us in there for the remainder of our open nights due to a last minute cancellation. BLESS YOU DIANE!!!  We love this campground with it's great sunset views over 7 mile bridge from the beach/dock area, yoga on the beach, kayaking, and biking.  The yoga instructor, Miranda, also makes jewelry so several purchases of amethyst and coral bracelets were made :)
