Alot of picnic tables, trails and great beach to swim, snorkle and just enjoy the family. Busy later in the day - get there early! More

Very calm beach. A lot of seaweed and very little actual sandy area, but the water is calm and the ocean floor is sandy, not rocky. There is a few areas with shade, but you must come early in the day. Parking is at a premium and it starts to get busy around noon. Will return. Perfect for families! More

There aren't too many beaches to actually enjoy going to the keys. Anne's Beach is worth the stop. There is a bit of trash that would be nice if the state would come clean up...but the water is amazing. Take the time to stop and enjoy some sandy beach space and walk out one of the long sand flats into... More

I stopped to Anne's beach because I read many good opinions on it. I thought I coul spend a nice moment. I was very disapointed. The landscape is beautiful, it is true but and you can make nice pictures but you do not really have a beach to put your towel on and in the sea the sand is horrible... More

Relatively clean "beach" to visit if you're not willing to drive to a real, full-size beach ( natives know what I mean). The water is nice, but expect lots of seaweed/grass rolling onshore certain times during the summer. There are a few (very few) picnic areas/benches that are first-come/first serve. More

This is a very pretty, dog-friendly beach. Parking is limited. Lots of nooks and crannies. Very shallow and safe. Right off Rte 1. Will definitely go back. More

We enjoyed this beach during our recent stay in Islamorada. The water is calm and shallow which is great for young kids. It is also a pet friendly beach which was nice for us since we had our small dog with us. Parking is very limited - get there early. More

It was quite shallow which was good for our kids, but it is kind of weedy and a bit mushy in the water. We missed the main parking lot but saw the sign after it and then parked in a smaller one. The boardwalk between the two parking lots is quite pretty though. More

My Wife and I stopped to check this beach out and go for a swim. It's definitely not a quiet place as it is right on Rte 1. The beach was nice - for a beach in the keys - but dont expect a nice sandy spot or surf. You wont find any of that. Annes beach is a nice... More
