Looking for a perfect way to spend a day in paradise? The Lagoon on Grassy Key has something for everyone—whether you're an adventure seeker, a nature lover, or a fan of local art and treasures. If you only have one day to spare, don’t worry! You can still make the most of it with this complete itinerary. Here’s how to experience it all:
Start Your Day with Wakeboarding at Keys Cable Park
Kick things off with some thrills at Keys Cable Park. Whether you're a seasoned pro or a first-time rider, the cable park is designed for all skill levels. The unique cable system makes it easier than riding behind a boat and offers a personalized one-on-one experience. Don’t stress if you’ve never tried it before—the instructors will have you up and riding in no time!
Grab Some Brunch at Bongo's Botanical Beer Garden
After that adrenaline rush, it's time to refuel. Bongo's Botanical Beer Garden is the perfect spot for brunch. Think tropical vibes, fresh seafood, juicy burgers, and ice-cold drinks—basically, everything you need to relax after a fun morning. Plus, you can’t go wrong with a cold craft brew while you soak up the sun. It’s the perfect spot to chill, eat, and enjoy the laid-back atmosphere.
Make a Splash at The Rhum Runner Aqua Park
Now that you’re fed and ready for more fun, head over to The Rhum Runner Aqua Park. This place is a blast! With inflatable obstacle courses, water slides, and trampolines, it’s basically a water playground for grown-ups and kids alike. You’ll be laughing, slipping, and sliding all over the place, so don’t forget your sunscreen and a good sense of humor. It's the perfect way to keep the fun rolling.
Take a Walk Through the Botanical Garden
If you’re looking for a little peace and quiet after all that action, the Botanical Garden is your next stop. Wander through the lush greenery of native plants, and take your time soaking in the beauty around you. It’s a great spot to snap some photos, swing in a hammock chair, or enjoy a walk through the trails. Trust us, you’ll want to spend a little time here to recharge before the next adventure.
Check Out the Outdoor Art Gallery
Time to get your culture fix! Take a walk around The Lagoon’s open-air gallery, where you’ll find vibrant murals painted by local artists. These aren’t your average paintings—expect everything from marine life to abstract designs that showcase the creative spirit of the Keys. Grab a drink from Bongo's, wander around the park and take in the sights.
Shop ‘Til You Drop at the Saloon Surf Shoppe
Before you head out, make sure to swing by the Saloon Surf Shoppe to grab a few souvenirs. Whether you’re into the classic “I Survived The Rhum Runner” tee (a must-have for anyone who tackled the water park) or just want a cool mug, tumbler, or t-shirt to remember your day, this shop has you covered. You’ll also find a bunch of local crafts and goodies—perfect for remembering your time at The Lagoon or picking up a gift for someone back home.
Wrapping Up Your Day
And that’s a wrap! Whether you're looking for adventure, relaxation, or a mix of both, The Lagoon on Grassy Key has something for everyone. From wakeboarding and aqua parks to nature walks and local art, come fill your day with fun and memories!
