This little unique village has many very talented artists, little shops that are so tiny and quiant! I always include this on my "must do's" when I visit the keys! I wish there were more places like this in the keys! More

Great place to stop and see some great art by local artists. You can also find any type of Island chatchki you can think of. Art runs the gammut from outstanding to cheap, but overall, a fun stop - and they ship if you don't want to carry it home. More

In the first building you enter you will find mostly cheesy imported souvenir type stuff priced anywhere from $1 - $400 but if you spend some time wondering around you will also discover a few little shops that have locally created crafts and art work which makes this stop worthwhile - Besides taking a picture with the Giant Spiny Lobster...

This is a fun place to go see some local crafts and wander around for a little while. Of course you can always get your photo taken with the giant lobster out front! It's very touristy, though, and the art reflects that. We did enjoy a short visit and you will, too. More

We have gone to Islamorada many times, as it's become our favorite getaway spot. However, although we'd driven past the huge spiny Fla. lobster out front of the Rain Barrel, we had never actually stopped. Back in Sept. we went down just for the day and we finally stopped there, on our way out of town to go back home.... More

We passed this place on the way to our destination in Layton on Long Key and drove back on a day we decided to check out the attractions on land. It looked promising from the outside, but the biggest attraction about this place is having your photo taken with the big spiny lobster. I admit, that's cool, but that's about... More
