We stayed a night at Fiesta Key. Very peaceful place, there is a campground near by that we could hear the music playing mildly. There is also a marina that wasn't opened to outsider from what we could tell. No place to really walk our dogs but we did find and opening on possibly someone's property that looked abandoned or just gone. We took our dingy there walked our dogs cleaned up after them. There weren't any no trespassing signs so we walked them there.
