Don’t miss: the Hawks Cay Resort, its marina and dolphin lagoon, canal-side villas, and easy access to Middle Keys fishing and diving.

When to go: year-round; loveliest in the mild winter months.

Duck Key’s residential canals and Venetian-style bridges were laid out in the 1950s to give nearly every home its own private boat dock.
