After time on the water, you can wind down at the on-site bar, where Taco Tuesday and live entertainment have been part of the scene.

Boat trips to Looe Key Reef

The resort’s dive shop arranges snorkeling and diving trips by boat to Looe Key Reef. A snorkel outing has lasted four hours, giving you time in the water to look for tropical fish and other marine life. Reports from trips include turtles, barracuda and Caribbean reef sharks.

The ride is part of the wildlife-watching, too. Dolphins and turtles have been seen along the way. Conditions at sea affect what a trip can do, so confirm the plan with the resort before you set out. If you are a less experienced diver, guided dives are available.

The resort and tiki bar

Looe Key Reef Resort is on Overseas Highway in Summerland Key. The lodging has a rustic feel, and the property also has a tiki bar.
