Anyone have good mile marker #'s or directions via water on how exactly to get to Pelican Cove Resort? We'd like to run inside to Gilberts, get some lunch and head down to Islomarada. Where exactly do you have to jump outside to get there and how the hell do you tell where it's at??!!
Thanks for the help.

Highway mile marker for Pelican Cove and Holiday Isle is 84.
If your on the water and facing Holiday Isle, look to the right and that's Pelican Cove. Very close.

Thanks Pat. From what I understand, we can run down the inside and take Snake Creek through to the outside and that drops us right at the Pelican Cove Marina?

Bum dope. The entrance for Pelican Cove is next to the Rum Runner bar at Holiday Isle. The average boat must enter from the Whale Harbor side of Holiday Isle and navigate the tricky entrance. Stay close to the shore. When you reach the entrance (marked by floating balls) stay next to the left side of the entrance. I would recommend exiting the bay via Whale Harbor bridge.

This is the bridge between Islamorada and Upper Matecumbe Keys. This is coming from the gulf side. Holiday Isles Resort (Tiki Bar) is on the left just under this bridge.
About the only place that you might be unsure where to turn from the inside, is where to come into here.

Alright, cool, I think we'll be able to figure it out. mile marker 84, use whale harbor entrance, tikki bar off to the left. If it's as easy as it sounds then we'll be good
