Summerland Key Vacation Rentals, Homes, Condos, Villas and Beach Rentals
Summerland Key
is one of the Lower Florida Keys where white sand beaches and sparkling blue water provide a gorgeous backdrop for a perfect vacation destination. This little Key has a quieter, more serene feeling than Key West. Located close to Big Pine Island, Summerland Key has beach rentals, condo rentals, and villa rentals that are made to blend perfectly into the tropical landscape. The wide, sandy beach on Summerland is adjacent to Lookout Park, with its sweeping ocean and island views. The park also contains picnic tables and ample parking to make your day at the beach easy and fun. At low tide, you can walk for miles encountering nothing but seabirds and shimmering seashells. When you’re ready for more than sea, sand and sun, take a stroll through Summerlands antique stores and afterwards linger over coffee or a meal at one of the outdoor cafes or restaurants. Youll encounter all sorts of flora and fauna in the Lower Keys, and be sure to watch out for the adorable Key Deer, only 2-1/2 feet tall. One of the most popular activities in the Lower Keys is diving. The clear, clean water and warmth make it perfect for this sport. Nearby Looe Key is known as the most spectacular living reef in North America and has a diverse population of corals and colorful, tropical fish. Watch for the Lower Keys Chamber of Commerce Annual Underwater Music Festival at Looe Key every July. Summerland Key is just 24 miles to Key West and 30 miles to Marathon.
The Lower Keys, including Key West, enjoys a tropical climate that is never too hot in summer or too cold in winter. Due to the lack of urban sprawl and super highways, there is nothing to radiate the sun's heat. That, plus being surrounded by water and cooling ocean breezes make unbearable hot summer days a rarity on the Keys. The rainy season runs May through October and thunderstorms are possible, but they never last long and the sunshine quickly returns. The Keys receive the least rain of anyplace in the state. The hurricane season is officially late August through November, although storms are almost unheard of after late October. Winters have little rain and there is never a chance of frost on the Keys. The all time record low for the Keys was 41 degrees back in 1981.
