    Stayed one night (MAR 19) at new floating dock near fuel dock and staff, especially Claudia, were very accommodating. Diesel fuel price was best we found on entire trip from Tampa to Marathon/KW and back. Recommend if traveling through Marathon.

    Stayed at KW Bight seven nights MAR '24 due to weather delaying our departure for Marco Island. Stan, Prince, and Olivia could not have been more accommodating. Perfect location to explore what KW has to offer.

  • Nav Alert comment on FL: St. Joseph Sound, shoaling

    Keep new Green Marker '35A' to the west which takes you slightly out of the designated ICW to avoid shoal. Water is plenty deep to the east of ICW at 35A to accommodate deviation.

    Stayed at facility one night this week. Few amenities (power and water hook-ups only) but floating docks were clean and well maintained. Light rail station a short walk away goes to Ybor City (no cost). Various restaurants a short walk away. Marina dock hands Jason and Emily were very nice and accommodating.

    Anchored one night this week in 6' of water (low tide) about 150' off causeway shoreline. Be sure to anchor on marina (west) side of Day Marker G11 where No Wake Zone begins. Some noise due to road traffic and sightseeing boats coming in and out of marina. Did not attempt to go ashore.

    Anchored about 1000' inside cove off G31 one night this week in about 10' of water. Mild westerly wind overnight thus well protected. Minimal boat traffic and noise from GIWW. Highly recommend.

    Anchored one night this week. Mild westerly wind; location protected by the island. Very good holding in sandy bottom. Lots of crab pots to avoid and fisherman at sun up. Light boat traffic during the week.
