What is the Underwater Music Festival?

A one-of-a-kind event run by the Lower Keys Chamber: music piped underwater at Looe Key Reef every July, attended by divers and snorkelers (often in costume), with proceeds benefiting reef protection. Held the second Saturday of July. If you've never been, build a trip around it.

When are the best months for events on Big Pine?

July for Underwater Music. October for the Big Pine Flea Market and the start of stone-crab season. State park programs at Bahia Honda and Key Deer Refuge run year-round, with the densest schedule in winter.

Big Pine & Lower Keys Events

What's happening in Big Pine & Lower Keys

Big Pine and the Lower Keys cover Mile Marker 9 through 47: the National Key Deer Refuge, Bahia Honda State Park (the prettiest beach in the Keys, fight me), Big Pine Key, No Name Key, Sugarloaf, Cudjoe. The event scene out here is the quietest of any region. No resort strip, no nightly music circuit. What you do find: state park programs at Bahia Honda and the Key Deer Refuge, Lions Club fundraisers, chili cookoffs, the Underwater Music Festival at Looe Key Reef in July (one of the strangest and best events anywhere), and the occasional concert at a Big Pine venue. Best months for events: July for Underwater Music, October for the Big Pine Flea Market and the start of stone-crab season.
