Pick a Mile Marker, Any Mile Marker

September 02

Did you know that the main road that connects the Florida Keys to the mainland of the United States, Highway US-1, goes all the way up to Maine? This highway is one of the longest in the entire country, stretching 2,369 miles from the north to the south.

This very long and important road connects most major cities on the East Coast of the US of A, and makes its final stop right here in the Florida Keys. Some say that if you actually reach Mile 0 that you are going from all work to all play. The Mile 0 sign in Key West, happens to be one of the most photographed highway signs in the whole state of Florida. Although some may say that Fort Kent, Maine, and Key West, Florida are the most important stops on Highway 1, we actually think the only one you have to remember is Mile Marker 85.5 — right here at the Post Card Inn!

Kick It Kokomo Style at the Pool Bar

August 05

Have you stopped by our famous pool bar since we re-opened our doors? Kokomo is the ultimate hangout spot at the Postcard Inn for all your friends and family.

This pool area has some of the most spectacular views of the ocean without getting you all salty from the sea. It’s the best of both worlds. Kick it pool and beachside with the gang, Piña Colada in hand. Sway your hips at the pool bar to the sounds of Islamorada, whether it be our cool local bands or great radio jams.

It feels good to have our complete island vibe back and we can’t wait to share it with all of you. The Postcard Inn at Holiday Isle has been known for our tropical cocktails, local food, and tiki bar-style for decades—it’s what we do best. Grab a float and a floater and meet us at the Kokomo Poolside Bar, we know the Beach Boys would be proud!

PADI Celebrates Women in Water

July 01

If you’re not careful, you may just end up swimming with the fishes in the Florida Keys. In fact, we hope that you end up doing exactly that.

We know the phrase ‘Swimming with the Fishes’ is a little unsettling when you are living the island life for a few days, but when you come to a place like Islamorada, it's all part of the lifestyle, not to mention has an entirely different meaning. Scuba diving has become a popular activity to do on those warm sunny days down south, and every July we like to take a moment to celebrate all the women who take part in this environmentally important practice. July 20th is PADI Women's Dive Day, which means submerging below the surface is all about you today ladies. Start your morning off at the History of Diving Museum to see and celebrate women in diving with a morning presentation by director and journalist Karuna Eberl. Cap the afternoon off with your own local dive or with Sailfish Scuba to learn even more about environmentally friendly diving practices. July is meant for women exploring the water— so here's to you ladies!

History Has Brought People to Indian Key but the Nature Keeps Them There

June 03

Plan your morning getting lost in paradise. Even though “paradise” is only a half a mile off-shore from Islamorada, it feels like a place eons away. Indian Key Historic State Park is just a short kayak ride away but will make you feel like you are stepping back in time.

This little island is the very first county seat for Dade County and has been an important part of the Florida Keys since 1836. Indian Key created its tiny empire in the 1800s by salvaging wrecked ships and collecting their goods—this lucrative business opened up many doors for this small but mighty island. Although Indian Key was heavy in business for many decades, the tides have definitely shifted for this island getaway. Ironically many people flock to the island now to escape work and focus on play. Indian Key is a great spot to snorkel, hike, swim, fish and to simply see the nature lurking beneath the ocean's surface.

Soak up the Sun on the Islamorada Sandbar

May 06

Everyone flocks to the Florida Keys for the hypnotizing water with a splash of the laid-back lifestyle. There are not many places in the world that replicate the feeling of being in Islamorada, especially on Memorial Day Weekend.

One of our favorite things to do this time of year is to take the boat, kayak, or jet ski out to meet everyone at the Islamorada Sandbar for Islamorada’s best ocean party. The sandbar is located less than a mile offshore from the Postcard Inn and once the crowds start gathering, it can be seen for miles and miles. Hundreds of boats and people become one with this unique geographical phenomenon that is right in our backyard. Lather on the sunscreen, pack up the snacks and booze, blow up the floaties, and hitch a ride to Islamorada’s most popular, yet unofficial Annual Memorial Day Weekend party on the sandbar.

7-Miles Why You Should Visit the Keys

April 01

The Florida Keys is a sacred destination for locals and tourists alike. One of the things that make our sweet home so special is that it inhabits a true island lifestyle.

The Caribbean water makes up much of what we know to be our home, and it wouldn’t be possible to keep our keys connected without an elaborate series of bridges. One of the most iconic structures in the Keys is the 7-Mile Bridge. This particular bridge was built to connect the middle keys, but unlike a traditional overpass, it had to stretch for seven miles without any true anchor but the sea. A fun way to celebrate this incredible feat is by cheering on the runners of the 7 Mile Bridge Run. This April marks the 38th Annual Bridge Run, which began when the new bridge first opened. It's the only run that is completely surrounded by water from start to finish and it's a great way to spend your Saturday morning in the Florida Keys!

We Aren't Lion, This Fish is Good

March 04

Did someone say lionfish? It seems like this spiky, striped fish has struck up quite the conversation among those living in the warmer waters of the Caribbean in the past few years.

This particular species has been labeled as an invasive fish that is growing quickly in numbers in our local waters. Who knew that the solution would be to eat them? The lion-fish has become the latest delicacy and apparently has a lot to offer in the taste-buds department.

One of the ways to limit their growth is by literally removing them from the sea and eating them for dinner. A fun way to get involved is by fishing or feasting at this year's Winter Lion Fish Derby. Come try your hand at lionfish farming or just try a piece for a good cause on March 29th through the 30th, at Sharkey’s Pub and Galley.

The Florida Keys Stay Festive in February

February 04

There is nothing better than the Florida Keys in February. The weather is just right, the island is bustling with people from all over the world, and there is so much to do! We wanted to give you the inside scoop here first.

Up first on the list is the Big Kahuna Corn Hole Tournament benefitting the Good Health Clinic on February 9th beginning at 1:00 pm. Try your hand at a corn-hole-in-one while raising money for a good cause.

Next up is a little more involved. The Whale Harbor Bridge Run is a very short half-mile run, meant to bring out fun and support the local community. The proceeds that are made during this run go to scholarships for students at Coral Shore High School.

Last but not least, one of our favorite things to do is drink beer, and our second favorite is to support our local brewery. Islamorada Beer Company is celebrating their fourth anniversary this February. Join in all the birthday party fun!

We Love Food & Wine.. So we Joined a Festival!

January 07

If you’re planning a trip to Islamorada in January, you are required to pack your taste buds in your carry-on.

January is already a great month in the Florida Keys because of the delicious weather and clear blue waters, but on top of everything that makes these islands great, it's the Key Largo & Islamorada Food & Wine Festival that makes it even better. For ten whole days of the month, the Upper Key’s will be “Uncorked” and scattered with delicious bites and booze all over the place. There are over 35 different events taking place starting January 10th and there is an option for every palate and budget throughout the festival. And the best part is that Grand Tasting will be taking place right here at The Postcard Inn. 2019 has been a greatly anticipated year for us, and we couldn’t be more proud and excited to be involved in one of the Upper Keys largest events. What a great way to start off the new year!

Holiday Season is Here in Holiday Isle!

December 03

It’s been exactly one year since our favorite park opened its doors back up and we could not be more thrilled to be celebrating another great holiday season at Founders Park.

Be sure to make time for the 14th Annual Islamorada Holiday Fest. There is nothing quite like a lot of snow on a very sandy beach. Bring your kids, bring your family, and bring your friends for this Florida winter celebration. The Parade kickoff and Holiday Gift Bazaar will begin at 7 pm on Friday, December 7th. Don’t miss out on Santa’s Sweet Shop, with all the delectable goodies that will be offered throughout the entire evening — and if you’re interested in a little healthy competition, be sure to check out the annual Ornament Competition by 50 local artists, all competing for the best ornament design on the island.

The Isle is Open for Business

November 05

It’s true! The best Florida weather is here and Postcard Inn has officially reopened for business! We cannot wait to see all of our familiar faces and a ton of new ones too.

This long process has been way worth it to get to celebrate the upcoming holiday season with all of our guests in our newly renovated space. If you haven’t stopped by Caio Hound or the Tiki Bar already to say “HEY,” make sure it is your very next stop on your trip to Islamorada.

We want to thank all of our friends, family, volunteers, supporters, and all of our fellow Conchs for all the love, support, and help they have offered during this difficult time. We have said it once and we will say it again, we are not just strong down here in the islands, we are #IslamoradaStrong!

Jet Ski All Over the Florida Keys

October 01

Calling all adrenaline junkies, it's time to get your feet wet and feel the wind in your hair by hopping on one of the Florida Key’s favorite past times, jet skiing!

A jet ski is basically a motorcycle on the water — the only difference is that there are no streets — only an open blue ocean to glide across. This fun activity is a more affordable way to get your ocean fix, without breaking the bank by renting a larger boat. You are still able to skip over waves, explore intimate passageways of the mangroves, follow the tide pattern, ride from island to island and race around the Atlantic Ocean all by yourself or with a few close pals. Island-hopping tours are available for those who would like to see all parts of the Florida Keys and not just from a hammock. Pick your favorite Waverunner to try out this fun, action-packed ocean activity today.

Sunset Skies in Islamorada

September 03

With summer coming to a close, it's essential to catch one last sunset on the bayside of the island.

There is nothing quite like watching the sun go down in the Florida Keys after a full day of playing outside and feeling the warm sun on your bare skin. Post up at one of the many restaurants that line the shore or take a sunset cruise on a boat into the bay. You’ll definitely feel like you are on island time when you catch a glimpse of the glimmering water that reflects the pink and orange hues from the colorful sky. Watching the sunset is a favorite pastime of locals and tourists alike, and it's something that you truly never grow tired of. Ask a local for the best spot on Islamorada to catch this spectacular daily show.

Chow Down at Ciao Hound

August 06

Did you know that Caio Hound is open again? It’s true! Come on over to the Postcard Inn and get your fix of Holiday Isle before our resort doors re-open.

Our restaurant has had a slight facelift since Irma rolled through the islands last year but our food is just as incredible as ever. Chicken Marsala, Lobster Ravioli and our Fresh Catch of the Day are now available every single night. We have been eagerly anticipating seeing our local friends and family and hope you'll swing by soon!

In a few short weeks, you can expect to see Holiday Isle up and running, and we're are excited to show off our new renovations too.

July 02

Grab your tickle stick and make your way to the reefs — its Mini Season Y'all! If you’re not familiar with Mini Season, let us explain.

It is the most anticipated two days of the entire lobster season -- it just happens to fall a few days before the regular season opens from August to March. These two days are always on the last consecutive Wednesday and Thursday in the month of July, just in time to get your fresh lobster fix. People from all over the country flock to the Florida Key waters to try their hand at lobster catching. Mini Season is typically the most plentiful time to grab your lobsters, as they have had a few months of R&R. All you need to participate in this two-day event is a valid recreational saltwater fishing license and lobster permit , your tickle stick, a lobster bag, a few pals and a little bit of butter for the after party!

Cool Off at Alligator Reef

June 06

It is time to grab your snorkel and dive right into the fresh waters of Islamorada.

With the temperatures rising there is no better way to cool off than by swimming in the coastal shores of the Florida Keys. One of our favorite spots to dive at is Alligator Reef Lighthouse, as this unique diving spot is flooded with hundreds of fish. The water surrounding Alligator Reef is crystal clear and bright blue at the same exact time, and it's a guarantee that you will spot Parrot Fish, Barracudas and Sargent Majors. And, if you're one of the lucky ones, you might just get a glimpse of one of the turtles that hang around the lighthouse. You can only reach Alligator Reef by boat, so if you didn’t bring your own, simply find a rental company you trust and rent one from them! Enjoy the refreshing water of the Keys while taking in the gorgeous sites of Alligator Reef Lighthouse.

Stay Safe in the Florida Sun

May 07

Summer is coming and it is time you learn a few things about the Florida sun!

After a very chilly winter, it's safe to say that everyone is looking forward to warm glowy skin and tropical cocktails by the water. Us locals know how to stay safe in the sun and we want you to be safe too. Follow these simple tips for a fun, burn-free weekend in the Caribbean heat.

1. Choose the best sunscreen for your skin, some may be safe with SPF 15 while others are better off with SPF 50+.

2. Apply your sunscreen at least 20 minutes before heading outside and don’t forget to reapply every couple of hours.

3. For an extra layer of protection, add fun accessories to keep your skin shaded while you are playing in the sand.

4. Last but not least, stay hydrated — and no Coronas don't count! Make sure you’re drinking plenty of H2O or drinks packs with natural electrolytes like fresh coconut water.

5. And last but not least, don't forget to have some fun!

Have You Heard of the Conch Republic

April 04

If you have ever visited the Florida Keys, you would know already that it's a place like no other.

But did you know we act under our own name as the Conch Republic? Yes, it's true — we are just a bunch of conchs! And lucky for us, our Independence Day is right around the corner. On April 23, 1982, the Conch Republic was established in response to a United States Border Patrol Blockade that had been set up on highway U.S.1 between the Florida Keys and the mainland. Local residents and officials of Key West were so astonished that they later marched to Federal court in Miami and declared on television that they would be seceding from the Union. The secession only lasted for one minute before the Mayor surrendered, however, this became the revolution of the ‘conchs’ that now extends throughout the entire Florida Keys. No matter where you are on April 23rd, please help us celebrate our independence with a cocktail in hand and a little Jimmy Buffet on the stereo!

Historical Islamorada

March 05

Find yourself on the other side of Islamorada — The Matacumbe Historical Trust has introduced the ’29 Points of Interest’ historical trolley tour for the month of March.

This one-hour ride will take you through Key Largo and Islamorada while showing you photos of the past. This educational experience is great for adults and children who have a deep love for the Florida Keys or simply want to learn more about our islands. It will give you a new appreciation after seeing the islands as they once were — when trains chugged along the bay and before the great hurricane dredged through in 1935. Homes from that era have been renovated (and some destroyed,) but with the monitor in the guide bus, you will be able to compare the "then" to the "now" in real-time. Tours begin at 10 am and reservations are recommended, tickets are only $15 per person, and free for children ages six and under.

Fight Fish in Islamorada

January 09

Grab your rods and reels, and wade through the open waters, it's time for the Islamorada Fishing Clubs Annual Sailfish Tournament.

The kick-off for this competition is January 25th, and the competition will be fierce. Grab your best angling friend and try your hand at some good old catch and release of these giant beauties. Sailfish are the fastest fish in the ocean and mostly enjoy swimming in the colder waters that fall upon the islands in January. They are notorious for their large bills and always put up a tough fight for the person on the other end of the rod; this attribute makes them great competition and a pretty awesome trophy fish. You can put your lines in the water right at 8:00 am, but be sure to have them out by 5:30 pm. Do you think you have what it takes to fight your way to the top?

October 02

Thank you to all who continue to stick by us as we rebuild our favorite island oasis. We can’t wait to welcome you back!

In the wake of Hurricane Irma, Islamorada is in the process of putting our beautiful island back together. People from all over the Keys and the state of Florida have come together to help clean up the island and rebuild what was lost. Our staff at the Postcard Inn Beach Resort & Marina have put in a lot of hard work over the last few weeks and continue to work hard to welcome guests back to our beloved resort. Piece by piece we are opening parts of the resort as soon as we can. Our on-site Starbucks is welcoming visitors and residents daily from 8 a.m. until 2 p.m. To put it simply, life on an island is about unity and coming together and it has been just that.

Here in the Keys, we go as local as we can — we enjoy warm sunshine, beautiful water, and a crisp cold beer from time to time. Stop by one of our favorite neighbors, the Islamorada Beer Company, for a cold one made by a Florida Keys native.

Opening their doors in October of 2014, they have been a great addition to the Islamorada family. Test a few of the beers out at the brewery and pick your favorite one to bring along with you to our infamous sandbar, just a boat ride away from the Postcard Inn.

Full Moon Party in Islamorada

The moon is one of the most important elements in our earth.

It brings the tides in and out, it dances daily with the sun and it gives us a bright dewy glow every single month. Therefore we only think it is right to celebrate.

Don't Forget Your Keys

April 06

Earth Day is a big deal down here in the Florida Keys. We eat, sleep and breath nature — so it is only right to respect our mother earth and celebrate her.

The Cheeca Lodge will be holding their annual Earth Day and Sand Castle Building competition this April 14th. The festivities will be held on the ocean side of the property and will have tons of activities for kids, along with $1 per minute massages, a barbecue feast, educational exhibits, and a catch and release fishing tournament.

However, the true pull for this event is the sand castle building contest that happens each year. Contestants are provided a letter that they must construct as part of a message to celebrate the holiday. This year's message “Don’t Lose Your Keys” is to help bring awareness to the importance of protecting the earth — a great reminder that nobody wants to lose their Florida Keys.

Sunny days with a Splash of Seafood

March 06

Lobster, sunshine and live music — have you ever heard three words more important to The Florida Keys?

The second largest event held in the Keys is The Original Marathon Seafood Festival. Its fortieth year running this festival has taken on an identity of its own. This years event will be held on Saturday, March 11th and Sunday, March 12th at Mile Marker 49. The Seafood Festival started as a local event for the fishing community to spend time with their loved ones while enjoying the outcome of their hard work. Slowly it turned into an island sensation and everyone wanted an invite. The Organized Fisherman of Florida still take part in putting on this tasty event and are always sure to give back to the community by sharing part of the proceeds that are gained.

Take a Break to Feed the Tarpon

January 08

Grab a Corona and a bucket of bait, right off of US1 and have yourself a good ol' time.

You can’t come down to the Florida Keys without feeding the infamous tarpons at Robbie’s Marina and Bar. These monsters will jump right out of the water to snatch the bait right out of your hands, creating the most perfect photo opportunity! Right outside the marina is a group of vendors, selling everything from hammocks to fine artwork, in the magnificent sunshine. The Robbie’s experience is a complete treat and an authentic Florida Key’s establishment. The marina itself has been around for nearly twenty years and is a staple stop for many traveling throughout the islands. Make sure you take a second to admire the gorgeous view of the bay and staple a dollar bill to the bar, to let the world know that you fed a fish named 'Scarface' in the Florida Keys!
