6 Florida Keys Adventures You Don't Wanna Miss
Mary Palm Photography

A trip to the Florida Keys is truly unforgettable. Consider these adventures as you prepare for an amazing trip!

1. Snorkel or dive a reef


The Florida Keys host numerous beautiful reefs that provide the perfect opportunity to see numerous species of fish and sea life. Looe Key Reef and Sombrero Reef are two of many reefs you do not want to miss out on during your vacation.

2. Go lobstering


During season, catching lobster makes for an eventful day. Don’t be fooled though... catching a lobster can be quite the challenge, but well worth the effort! Don’t forget your nets and tickle sticks!

3. Catch a fish


Fishing both offshore and inshore in the Keys is bound to be a great time! Tarpon, mangrove snapper and snook are few of many species of fish you can catch! If you are an experienced diver or snorkeler, then spearfishing would be a great option for you! It is even encouraged to spear lionfish as they are a very invasive (and very tasty) fish! Hogfish also make a delicious meal.

4. Kayak or paddleboard


The gorgeous waters of the Keys are a kayaker’s or paddleboarder's dream. Keep your eye out for all kinds of wildlife and also get in a great, fun workout. When in doubt, paddle out, they say!

5. Wakeboard, kneeboard, water ski or tube


Any of these options makes more a fun time! Get a group together and hit the water! Make competitions out of it to make things a little more interesting!

6. Watch a sunset


When you are in the Keys, watching a sunset should definitely be a priority! Pictures just don’t do justice!

Happy travels!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
