Gann: Top: mahogany mistletoe (Phoradendron rubrum), a tropical species that grows only on Key Largo, and one of South Florida’s rarest species. Mahogany poachers and habitat loss in the 1970s brought this species to near extinction in South Florida. Bottom: fuzzywuzzy airplant (Tillandsia pruinosa), a tropical epiphyte that grows in several conservation areas in and around the Big Cypress Swamp. This and other rare epiphytes are threatened by poaching, hydrological change, and exotic pest plant invasions.

    Our Story The Florida Keys Scenic Highway (FKSH) corridor runs from Mile Marker 110, north of the spectacular Jewfish Creek Bridge, to Mile Marker 0 in Old Town Key West. The scenic highway corridor also extends five miles on each side of the highway. So, the FKSH truly encompasses all of the Florida Keys, its natural wonders, and its communities. Through efforts beginning in 1996 with numerous public meetings and workshops to create the Corridor Management Plan, the FDOT designated the FKSH a Florida Scenic Highway in 2001. In 2007, the Florida Keys Mission Statement Scenic Corridor Alliance (FKSCA) was To enhance the scenic image, preserve our established as the corridor management entity heritage and diversity, and promote the natural responsible for implementing the goals and beauty of the Florida Keys Scenic Corridor. objectives concerning the FKSH. The FKSCA completed its Corridor Management Plan Five- Year Update in fall of 2008 and applied for designation in the National Scenic Byways Program. The FKSCA proved our highway corridor meets the designation criteria of being considered a “destination unto itself” and “providing an exceptional travel experience.” Our scenic and recreational intrinsic qualities “are those which best represent the nation, are nationally recognized, and contain one-of-a- kind features that do not exist elsewhere.” The Florida Keys Scenic Highway is a natural fit. In October 2009, the Federal Highway Administration designated the Florida Keys Scenic Highway as an All-American Road – Florida Keys Scenic Corridor Alliance the highest status in the National Scenic P.O.

  • Molasses Key Primitive Camp Trip Paddle Information Sheet Description: the Molasses Keys Are Only a Little Over 2 Miles from the South End of the Seven Mile Bridge
    S15LK Day Paddles and Overnight Trips - Lower Keys Molasses Key Primitive Camp Trip Paddle Information Sheet Description: The Molasses Keys are only a little over 2 miles from the south end of the Seven Mile Bridge. Take a break at Money Key about halfway there. Look for Bahama Sea Stars on the way out. There is a lot of other sea life to look for like stingrays and sharks. Many bird species inhabit the islands, the rare white-crowned pigeons nest there, and during spring and fall, migrating warblers and other birds can be seen passing thru. Skill Level: Intermediate Distance/Approximate Time: 2.7 Miles Each Way/1.5 Hours each way Launch Site: Little Duck Key - Wayside Park Ramp Special Considerations: As you paddle towards the Molasses Keys, you might be pushed out if the tide is receding or drawn toward the bridges if the tide is rising. There is a section of choppy water between Money and the Molasses Keys. Just stay calm, keep your eyes on the islands and keep paddling! The Molasses Keys are privately owned is- lands that locals and tourists have been visiting for years. Please respect these pristine keys that the owners keep trash free. Do not take anything and do not leave anything, es- pecially trash but also do not post any signs or structures. Hurricane Irma in September 2017 destroyed the islands with major loss of trees and even extensive loss of land (particularly the beach on the little key). Permission is required for camping. Contact Frank & Monica by messaging from the Facebook page, Friends of the Molasses Keys or calling Monica at 305-394-9252.
