General recommendations - things to do

 

Food/Bars

  • Sunset Grille - Seven Mile Bridge
    • 7 Knights Key Blvd, Marathon, FL 33050
    • Hours - 8am-10pm seven days a week
      • Food is average vacation/pub fare, but swimming pool access included, so it's great to park the kids while you eat and drink. No promises, but we've seen a manatee out by the docks every time we've gone.
