Activities to enhance your Florida Keys RV experience
Curry Hammock State Park is easy to access thanks to its great location on the Overseas Highway in Marathon, Florida. While the RV parking sites are scenic, spacious, and convenient, there’s a good chance the multitude of activities available to enjoy will have you out exploring most of the time. If you love to pedal or paddle your way through a sunny afternoon, the option to rent kayaks, bikes, and stand-up paddleboards at the park ranger station is a highlight.
Once you have your gear, the park’s easy-to-use kayak launch will have you on the water in no time. If you’re looking to pair your kayaking with fishing, you’ll find snapper and snook are typically biting in the channel, while the flats host a plethora of bonefish year-round. When you’re back on land, you’ll have easy access to the Overseas Heritage Trail, which is bike and pedestrian-friendly. While you’ll only conquer a portion of the trail in Curry Hammock State Park, in its entirety, the route covers more than 90 miles of land running between Key Largo and Key West.
The Curry Hammock State Park landscapes showcase a collection of tropical hardwood hammock forests. These provide important habitats for incredible creatures and thrilling wildlife-watching for guests. The area is rich in year-round shorebirds and migratory species you can observe during your stay. From the shoreline, there’s also a good chance you’ll spot dolphins, manatees, sharks, and stingrays in the water.
