Whether you’re visiting with friends, family, or just looking to relax in paradise, a trip to the Islamorada Sandbar is a must-do experience. And the best part? Bamboo Charters can take you there in style.
What Is the Islamorada Sandbar?
Located just offshore from Mile Marker 84 in Islamorada, Florida, the sandbar is a shallow area surrounded by the crystal-clear waters of the Atlantic Ocean. During low tide, the sandbar is just a few feet deep — perfect for lounging, swimming, tossing a football, or just soaking up the sun. On weekends and holidays, the area becomes a lively gathering place, filled with boats, music, floats, and fun.
Why Visit the Islamorada Sandbar?
- Unmatched Natural Beauty: Clear turquoise waters, soft white sand, and panoramic ocean views.
- Family-Friendly Fun: Shallow waters make it a great destination for kids and adults alike.
- Perfect for Groups: Bring your crew and enjoy floating games, picnic lunches, or a relaxing day of sunbathing.
- Wildlife Watching: Keep an eye out for tropical fish, stingrays, and even dolphins as we cruise to the sandbar.
