Mrs. Puerto and I are planning a beach trip there. Recs?
We really just like hanging out on a pretty beach. The view and the beach are more important than luxuries (although we will take those too).
This will be in early July. Fully aware of hurricane risk.

I love Key West. It is a great place for a vacation but I would not call it a great beach destination. They have some beaches there, the nicest being the one next to the fort, but even that one is small and basic by Florida standards.

Just got back from Key Largo - Baker’s Kay had a pretty sizable beach for the Keys. Also had a secluded type beach as well. Would recommend the hotel

The keys don’t have a lot of beaches OP. It’s mostly mangrove islands, so you need to make sure where ever you go has a beach. Most of the actual beaches are man mad. It’s not like there’s shoreline to just walk for miles and miles.
I’m not saying you can’t do your vacation as planned, but just make sure you know that going in.

Yeah…the keys are not a beach destination. Maybe look a little further south and get some inspiration from your username and go to PR?

take the 2hr flight to Cancun
you’ll be on a gorgeous beach 20 minutes after landing
haven’t stayed there yet but the club med in the hotel zone looks really nice (and it’s not a high rise)

Than you may not want to go to the keys. Views there is plenty of but it's not very beachy. They have some but it's not a place you go to and hang out on a beach.

Marco Island/Naples is your best bet. You can fly into MIA, FLL, or RSW. Obviously RSW/Ft. Meyers is the closest, but the other two are not that far.

Went to the keys with the wife (no pics) for the honeymoon. Beaches are not that common. We stayed in Marathon at Isla Bella. It has a private beach. But I would recommend Key West to visit for anything else to do. We plan to go back to just Key West. It's an interesting place.
