The Only Island In Florida With An Ice Cream Boat & Taco Boat Docked Every Day

What if we told you there was an island in Florida that could only be accessible by boat, but once you arrived, it was like stepping into pure paradise? Sure, Florida has quite a few beautiful places to spend a long weekend, but if you feel like getting away from it all, into your own personal slice of heaven, then this island is for you. By the way, did we mention the ice cream boat and taco boat docked nearby? Welcome to paradise at Keewaydin Island in Florida.

Keewaydin Island is right off the coast of Naples, Florida, and is one of the most surreal places in the state.

The pristine shoreline, the gradient blue hues of the ocean leading to the horizon — you really can’t beat this experience.

The only problem that many Floridians have with visiting Keewaydin Island is that it must be done by boat!

But needless to say, once you’ve arrived, you may never want to leave.

One thing to keep in mind while visiting Keewaydin Island, however, is that there are no amenities nearby on the island itself.

Yet, local businesses solved that problem with their floating restaurants that dock on the island all day, every day.

You’ll find a bevy of food choices to indulge in, including burgers, tacos, hot dogs, and more.

There is a cocktail boat that comes around, too, for those who come unequipped for a fun day under the sun.

And for those who qualify, free beer is usually on the menu in order for everyone to kick back, relax, and enjoy the scenery.

Don’t forget the Ice Cream Boat — an absolute must if you’re coming in with the kids.

Even if you don’t bring the picnic and drinks that you planned on bringing, the nearby floating restaurants won’t leave you stranded.

Just keep in mind that weekends can be quite hectic when visiting Keewaydin Island, so be sure to get there early to find a decent "parking spot."
