One where the &#8220;destination&#8221; is actually several stops along the way! We&#8217;ve partnered with road tripper Dr. Cacinda Maloney of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pointsandtravel.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Points and Travel<\/a> to follow along on her drive through South Florida.&nbsp;<\/i><\/p>\n<p>Want to take that classic American road trip? I did it back in the early 80\u2019s and recently did it again to see what has changed. Driving down the keys from Miami to Key West is a great road trip! The four-hour drive time goes by faster than you would think along the scenic US Highway 1 crossing 42 bridges. I suggest stopping along the way for some good ole\u2019 Florida fun! Leave from the Miami airport by 7 a.m. and follow the route outlined below or drive to Islamorada, spend the night and begin the next day by exploring the middle keys.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Day #1<\/strong><\/h2>\n<h3><strong>Robbie\u2019s Marine and The Hungry Tarpon, 10:15&nbsp;a.m.<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Growing up to 8 feet long and weighing more than 200 pounds, tarpon are huge fish that live in the tropical waters off the Florida Keys. Watching the participants dangle their arms over the water, a massive sea creature suddenly leaps out and attaches its massive self via the mouth and teeth around their wrist and hand! Yikes! And people do this stuff for fun! You can buy bait in a bucket for about $3 and catch them with your hands if you dare from the dock at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.robbies.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Robbie\u2019s Marina<\/a>&nbsp;in Islamorada. The food at the restaurant is great, but the fun is standing there and watching it all go down. I didn\u2019t do it, but I sure enjoyed watching others with fish up to their wrists! Careful, they have coarse jaws&nbsp;and leave marks! Gawking at its finest!<\/p>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Picture4.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-13621\" src=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Picture4.png\" alt=\"Picture4\" width=\"900\" height=\"595\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Picture4.png 900w, https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Picture4-300x198.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/a>\n<h3><strong>The \u201cOld 7\u201d Seven Mile Bridge,&nbsp;12 p.m.<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>You will be driving and driving for miles on the freeway, one bridge after another, but there is this one that you must stop for!&nbsp; Actually, you stop before you get there just north of the bridge at mile marker 47 in Marathon. I recommend to rent bicycles at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.overseasoutfitters.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Overseas Outfitters<\/a>.&nbsp;Then, you and the crew can take off for Seven Mile Bridge on bikes. The bridge was constructed in 1912 as the centerpiece for Henry Flagler\u2019s Over-Sea Railroad. It is literally a bridge to nowhere. It was retired in 1982 as a fishing pier and walking\/bike trail. For this stop, I recommend sunscreen and tennis shoes!<\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Picture21.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-13618\" src=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Picture21.png\" alt=\"Picture2\" width=\"900\" height=\"601\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Picture21.png 900w, https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Picture21-300x200.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/a><\/h3>\n<h3><strong>Turtle Hospital in Marathon,&nbsp;1:15 p.m.<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>I loved this stop along the way to learn how the folks in Florida care for these magnificent creatures. They teach the public ways to&nbsp;ensure they are doing everything they can to prevent injuring them.&nbsp;It is really nice to see an organization that loves turtles so much! You can see everything from turtle surgeries to turtles in various states of rehabilitation due to boating mishaps, floating debris and water pollution. Once they have recovered, they release the turtles back to the spot where they were rescued! They have rehabilitated over 1,400 turtles, including loggerheads, greens, hawksbills, leatherbacks and Kemp\u2019s Ridley turtles. However, thirteen turtles have been unable to be released back into the wild and remain as permanent residents. This is the only state-licensed veterinary hospital dedicated solely to the treatment of sea turtles. Worth a stop.<\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Picture3.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-13619\" src=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Picture3.png\" alt=\"Picture3\" width=\"900\" height=\"581\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Picture3.png 900w, https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Picture3-300x194.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/a><\/h3>\n<h3><strong>Return for R&amp;R at Cheeca Lodge &amp; Spa,&nbsp;3:30 p.m.<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>In the middle keys at Islamorada, you can stay at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/Florida-Keys-Hotels-Cheeca-Lodge-Spa.h5780.Hotel-Information\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Cheeca Lodge &amp; Spa<\/a>, the views are amazing, the beach really nice, and the food, well \u2013 scrumptious! You can check-in for the night, order a drink and relax. At this point in the drive, I suggest getting back to homebase for&nbsp;a little rest and regrouping, so that you can go to dinner by 7:30 p.m.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Dinner at Marker 88,&nbsp;7:30 p.m.<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Since 1967, Marker 88 has been offering up beachside dining and some of the Florida Keys&#8217; freshest seafood.

It was destroyed by a hurricane in 1846, but a new tower was built in its place in 1848.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Go See the Southernmost Buoy Marker, 4 p.m.<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>If you have done this before, then skip it, as it is extremely touristy and the lines are long. Maybe just drive by and thank God that you are not in the line of people waiting in the humid sun. But if you have to, the concrete buoy marking the \u201cSouthernmost Point in the Continental USA\u201d is at the corner of South and Whitehead streets in Key West. It is only \u201c90 miles to Cuba\u201d from here! I skipped it this time, but snapped a photo on my trip when I was here before!<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Marvel a Key West Sunset, 6:40 p.m. (varies depending on time of year)<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The sunsets in Key West are some of the best, so grab a few munchies and margaritas from El Meson de Pepe, a family-owned Cuban restaurant near Mallory Square. Be sure and go to the square right before the sun drops below the horizon of the Gulf of Mexico. It truly is like a painting in the sky. But beware, it is crowded!<\/p>\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Picture9.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-13630\" src=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Picture9.png\" alt=\"Picture9\" width=\"427\" height=\"640\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Picture9.png 427w, https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Picture9-200x300.png 200w, https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Picture9-135x202.png 135w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 427px) 100vw, 427px\" \/><\/a><\/h2>\n<h2><strong>Day #3 <\/strong><\/h2>\n<h3><strong>The Most Exciting Day You Will Have in the Keys!<\/strong><\/h3>\n<h3><strong>Blue Heaven Restaurant,&nbsp;8 a.m.<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>There is nothing quite like the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.blueheavenkw.com\/#!breakfast\/ccd7\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Blue Heaven&nbsp;<\/a>for breakfast.
