HERBIES in MARATHON is probably closed right now as they are a seasonal restaurant. With your RV the keys will be a chore to navigate as many of the roads and streets are very narrow and parking is limited. Another option to consider is maybe rent a car while you're down there. I'm pretty sure MARATHON and ISLAMORADA both have a rental car place as I believe they both have an airport. The drive across TAMIAMI TRAIL(US 41) is very scenic and isolated, and takes you right through the glades and several pull offs. Be advised though it is a scenic road and tends to be bumpy. On your way down definately take card sound road as the last time I was there they were 4 laning US1 and it had some pretty heavy back-ups on it.

Try Craig's restuarant in Tavernier--good fish sandwich and conch fritters. Nothing fancy, nice local place. Snappers in Key largo is cool for atmosphere, you can feed the tarpon right off the deck. I agree with Ferm on Bahia Honda state park. Can't remember the names, but a couple cool places to check out in Islamorada--the "sport fishing capital of the world". You'll know them when you see them. Key West is a waste of time I think. Insane traffic, high prices, uber-liberal/queer/swinger/drug user mentality prevails with the occasional mid-life crisis who wishes he was Ernest Hemingway or Jimmy Buffett, instead of some loser cheating on his wife and kids.

Well said. That's what I like about this site. Ask a question and get a straight answer. I suppose Key West is OK if that's your thing. I would not take my kids there.
