Lazy Days Islamorada Live Cam – Alligator Reef Lighthouse View

This live view comes from Lazy Days, an oceanfront restaurant in Islamorada, Florida, at US-1 Mile Marker 79.8 in the Florida Keys. The camera zooms in on some of the area's best-known sights: Alligator Reef Lighthouse, boat traffic in Tea Table Channel, Tea Table Key and the Lazy Days waterfront at the edge of the Atlantic Ocean.

Islamorada calls itself the Sport Fishing Capital of the World, and the water here is full of charter boats, flats skiffs and pleasure craft. Alligator Reef Lighthouse, an iron skeleton tower several miles offshore, marks a reef named after the US Navy schooner Alligator, which ran aground there in the 1820s.

Things to watch

• Boats running Tea Table Channel between ocean and bay
• Close-up views of the historic lighthouse
• Brilliant turquoise water and Keys sunrises

US-1, the Overseas Highway, is the only road through the Keys, so the restaurant is right on the main route. Winter and spring are peak season. The stream is provided by Lazy Days Islamorada.
