Well we finally made it to our first cg in the Keys. Bahia Honda is a beautiful park as you can see from the pic above. The weather for us is about 10o cooler than normal, but that means highs in the low 70’s. The wind is gusty so we didn’t do any paddling here since it is in the ocean and channels around the keys. BUT, we don’t think we will return here to camp. Notice in the picture that RT 1 (the bridge) runs very close to the campground, the noise is very loud and annoying! But, the beaches are beautiful and the road noise is very subdued although, every present.
We are getting some biking in, it is so pretty to ride along the pretty colors.
And of course, we are taking advantage of the sun and beaches. Notice the “sea grass” that is littering the beach. Actually, the sea grass is beneficial to the beach to help lessen erosion
There are lots of sponges here on this beach. I am holding a bowl sponge. There are no shells here to collect, the sea grasses catch them out in the water and they rarely come on shore.
We leave Saturday for 2 days in another Keys SP, John Pennekamp. I hear they have good paddling and great snorkeling, although I’m not sure if it will be warm enough for us to get in the water yet? It will probably be around Feb. 18th before we can post again

Glad to have your assessment of camping at Bahia Honda. That will help us in future planning. Isn't it nice to be warming up a bit?!

It sounds like you guys are having a really nice vacation. Hopefully when you head back north, you bring some of the weather with you!
Is the bowl sponge "spongey"? Just curious...
