Looe key I think that is how it is spelled? anyways it is by Big Pine Key It is a must do I cant believe nobody mentioned it yet? Now you have to be very careful as you have picked one of the worst times to go diving in that area! Mini season for lobster is in that time frame & there will be more divers & boats on the water at one time than any one would think possible. Many of which will be running low on sleep & possibly drinking etc. Historically people die during this time!!!!! I dont mean to be the doom & gloom but I just think people should be informed. Its not you that you have to worry about its all of the other people! Most charters are already booked, boat ramps will be full & lodging will be hard to find. With that said good luck & be safe. I as a rule do not dive during mini season. Todd
