About Our Stay

Bahia Honda was a one-night stay that we managed to snag through Arvie, and even though we had an interior site, it gave us a chance to experience one of the places we really wanted to see in the Keys. We spent time relaxing at the beach with the kids and walked up the old bridge for an incredible sunset. The mosquitoes were intense, and being fairly close to the dumpster meant we noticed mice around the campsites, but neither took away from how beautiful the park was. For a quick one-night stay, we packed quite a bit into it.
