Latest reviews on Marathon's beaches

Sombrero beach
10 Lila Rocen

The beach is stunning, with breathtaking views and ample space to enjoy. The water is crystal clear and pristine, with no shortage of trash cans to dispose of any waste. There are restrooms available on-site, as well as grills and a large park area, complete with covered picnic areas. The playground is fantastic, and it's an excellent spot for kayaking or fishing, with plenty of yellow and mangrove snapper to catch. The only downside is that during certain seasons, there can be a seaweed smell. Nonetheless, it's a beautiful beach, and the mangroves across from it offer cool tunnels to explore that lead to nearby lakes.

Sunset Park beach
10 Lila Kessler

The experience I had at sunset park was truly unique and unforgettable. The sunset was absolutely breathtaking and something that everyone should witness at least once in their lifetime. What made the experience even more special was the community of residents who gathered to sing as the sun was setting, creating a sense of unity and togetherness. I thoroughly enjoyed every aspect of my time at sunset park and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a truly memorable experience.

Key Colony beach

This hotel, which claims to be a hotel and resort, is actually more like a motel. The property is quite old and is in need of updates. Unfortunately, there is no phone in the room to contact the front desk for assistance. Moreover, after 9pm, there is no staff available on site, so you have to reach out to someone off site for help. However, the pool is quite lovely and the location is excellent. The main thing you are paying for is the convenient location. Upon entering the room, we were disappointed to find that there wasn't even a blanket on the bed. Additionally, the room thermostat and the safe were both non-functional. Moreover, there are no food options available on site, nor are there any vending machines. There is, however, a nearby restaurant which is quite expensive.

The warmest month during the year in this area is August, with the air temperature rising up to 29.8°C and the water temperature up to 31°C. The coldest month is January, with the air temperature dropping down to 22.4°C and the water temperature down to 22.4°C.
