Nice friendly people, we always rent our boat and get our bait and geat at this mom and pop run marina/boat/bait shop. Very informative and easy to work with, why we come back to them every year, see you in December.
"Launch at your own risk" next to boat ramp.
We enjoyed our stay in the little house on the water at The Sea Bird Marina and look forward to visiting again. The house was clean and the kitchen was well provisioned for cooking and eating. Sylvia answered all of our questions before we arrived and made us feel welcome during our stay. I enjoyed her local knowledge, dry sense of humor and her hospitality.
So I asked the simple question however a big deal to the owner..... Rude with no real answer.
Boat is a 30 foot concept.
Details: Since our trailer was on 3 wheels the ride height of the trailer was too low to clear the grade of the ramp. With the help of many we were able to jack the boat off the hitch, flip the ball and successfully get the boat unloaded in to the water damage free. This marina may not be the fanciest but if you are looking for some nice Floridians to help get your boat wet this is a very convenient and nice location.
This home-away-from-home has everything you need to enjoy a quiet, private getaway.
Owner is rude. A sign that reads
If you like sunsets on the water, feeding tarpon and watching marine life in the marina, enjoy boats and fishing and don't need hopping nightlife, fancy furnishings or room service, you'll find your slice of paradise right here.
Dont waste your time with this guy so many other boat ramps to deal with a hot head owner.
Well our trip to Islamorada started off great and then went quickly down hill. Trailer problems the whole way down starting in the middle of Alligator Alley and ended up limping in to Sea Bird on 3 wheels. The friendly and courteous staff and customers of this Marina worked with me to get my boat in the water. I did not experience the same service that others have. I just used the ramp for getting my boat in the water. I did not store my boat, trailer, or any vehicles at this location over night.
The house at The Sea Bird Marina is a vacation place for people who do not need or expect corporate hotel or resort amenities - the home itself is an older Florida home with mid-century cool terrazzo floors, updated wall units for air conditioning and Wifi. The decor is dated but all appliances are in good working order and we lived in the home comfortably for a week.
Plan ahead for groceries because Long Key does not have a grocery store and the nearest one is more then 12 miles in either direction. Relative to most of The Florida Keys, it is as if time stood still here. There is no hustle and bustle: it is enjoyably quiet. So bring your groceries and your boat or rent a boat - live bait, chum, sunscreen and fuel are available at The Sea Bird Marina and when you do need the basics like milk, coffee, bread and eggs you can get them locally.
Wonderful family operated business. Well priced boat rental. Top notch service and equipment.
