Great way to enjoy Crandon. Couldn't find a map showing which number cabanas were which, so here's what we got when we checked in for other people to use as a reference.
This place is very beautiful. I found some fallen coconuts and de-husked one on the concrete completely by hand without any tools!
I met a nice Cuban American man who lives on the island and he showed me how to peel a coconut using a knife. He showed me out of the 3 holes on the core, only 1 reaches the water. He is a very friendly guy. I like how the coconut tasted.
I also toured the state park, which requires only $2 for pedestrians and walked in the mangrove bushes. Walking in the residential area I watched those humongous $10M houses and people driving around in golf carts. According to Wikipedia a lot of celebrities including Richard Nixon lived in Key Biscayne.
This park is beautiful ideal to come with children ...
We did not rent the cabanas but the area is very nice, great for photos and videos, especially if you have a drone.
Cabanas are available for daily or year rental, daily is under $40, you need to call ahead and reserve. Rentals come with a parking space and you do not have to pay for parking. You also get a key and can lock the cabana. Cabanas are 10' x 10' and come with a shower. chairs are not included, you need to bring your own chairs. there are volleyball court and lovely beach access, bathrooms are right next to cabanas in a separate building there are also near by concessions where you can by ice and snacks. Cabanas are open 8am to sunset.
