Ah, the great outdoors. A chance for the entire family to have some fun and get back to nature. Should you be fortunate enough to travel to South Florida, you might like to stop at Curry Hammock State Park. Somewhere on Little Crawl Key at Marathon, Florida, this park consists of a series of small islands along either side of US-1 (mile marker 56.2).

The waters at Curry Hammock are relatively shallow with gentle currents and minimal wave action. Underneath the waters and in the shallows are sea grass which provides a habitat for marine life. Fishermen will like this park and may catch sharks, bonefish and snook among other fish. Just make sure you have the proper fishing permits before you cast a line, since fines can be pretty stiff!

We like this park due to the fact that we can snorkel, hike, bike or go kayaking. The paddling trip around the main island takes about 1½ hours. The thing we don't like is that kayaks and canoes must be portaged from either the campground or the day-trippers area.

Curry Hammock has a year round campground and reservations are a good idea. The campsites at this park are all equipped with a picnic table, grill and water. The primary restroom facilities have solar powered showers. Bring some bug repellent and sun block, because you're likely to need both. Curry Hammock State Park is open 365 days a year from 8 am until sunset. There is an admission fee currently (2010) $5.00 USD per vehicle for up to 8 persons. Bicyclists and pedestrians pay $2.00 each.
