About This Access Site
Sugarloaf Marina in Summerland Key offers public access to Upper Sugarloaf Sound with both a standard boat ramp and a dedicated shallow-water kayak ramp, making it convenient for paddlers of all experience levels. The facility is well-equipped with a ship's store stocking bait, tackle, ice, and supplies, and offers boat and kayak rentals if you don't have your own watercraft. Parking passes are available on-site through Honk Mobile parking solutions.

The marina provides excellent access to diverse paddling opportunities in the Lower Keys, including Upper and Lower Sugarloaf Sound and direct routes to the Atlantic Ocean. Paddlers can explore the scenic waters while staying within the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary and near the Great White Heron National Wildlife Refuge, both important habitats for marine life and migratory birds. In addition to self-guided paddling, the marina offers guided eco-tours and fishing charters if you want expert local knowledge.
