How far off shore are we talking? Are either one of these close enough to get to via kayak?
Both web sites mention boat and kayak rentals at Robbie's, but don't say whether you need a power boat or can kayak over.
Thanks again!

Both are close enough to kayak to (in the same trip - -but one is on bayside and one is on ocean side).
Buy a little soft sided cooler and pack a lunch, drinks, snacks to enjoy on the trip.
Note that Lingnumvitae is much buggier than Indian Key. I would not go there in the summer. In the winter, put on bug spray before leaving the dock.

Thank you so much for the most helpful reply! We're going end of February/Middle of March. Do you think those two places are good for kayaking? Much to see?
Thanks again!

Yes - it's a fun (and easy) trip. You'll enjoy the tarpon at Robbie's too.
