Comments The "no-see-ums" were terrible! My daughter is in the hospital because of the bites.

We took my grandson (8 years old) to Anthony's Key for "Kids Sea Camp". He had a blast, Margo and her staff did a fantistic job. I highly recommend KSC.

The shore diving is restricted. You can only shore dive between the hours of 3pm and 9pm because the dolphin dives are in the same general area.

IMHO AKR is a great destanation for beginner and intermediate divers and families with nondivers.
