Robbie's Of
Islamorada
The view of Robbie's coming across the
bridge.
Robbie's is a "must see" if
you are visiting the Florida Keys, especially if you are interested
in fishing for tarpon. It is the only place you will see so many
tarpon up close "in the wild".
Tarpon swimming around the 18' Wagner we rented.
The tarpon are not restrained in any
way. They simply hang out at Robbie's for the food. We visited
Robbie's the week of April 14th, 2002 and there were close to a
hundred tarpon around the docks. When you come in with a boat you
just drive slowly through the tarpon.
More tarpon than you will see in a week of fishing!
Robbie's has some very competitive
boat rental rates with half day rate discounts for extended rentals.
We took out their 18' Wagner for the week and couldn't have been
more pleased. From the bimini top to the live bait well, the boat had
everything we needed for comfortably exploring and fishing the area.
Robbie's is located at MM77 just
after you cross the bridge leaving Islamorada and entering Lower
Matecumbe. You will see Robbie's on the right. As soon as you get
off the bridge turn on the drive to the right and go back towards
the marina.
Robbie's also offers snorkeling
tours, eco tours, off shore and back country fishing charters. If
you are staying in the Islamorada area, we strongly recommend you
look into Robbie's for your boating or fishing needs. If you are
going somewhere else in the Keys, at least stop in to feed the
tarpon.
