HIGGS BEACH PIER

Key West Beach Days

The swimming out here is excellent and it you could walk out to the end of the pier where stairs can be found to gracefully enter and exit the water. The old pilings are part of historic Key West and offer an excellent opportunity to see fish and marine life so close to the beach. This is a marked off swimming only area, and you will notice this as being consistent around this part of the island. Yes, this is my favorite Key West public swimming hole!

Where to Snorkel in Key West
When the wind comes over the island this water is protected from the wind, so the snorkeling gets better. Improved water clarity makes it nice to snorkel by the old wood structures. Lots of little fish and some barracuda in the water, oceanside.

People and Turtles love to Swim
Expect great views and the old pier pilings in the water make for a fun place to snorkel, as the pilings add structure, which attracts the marine population.
