Plantation Key Colony is a renowned subdivision located on the north end of Plantation Key (MM90).
The history of this subdivision dates back to early time, 500 – 700 AD, when this area was home to a large Indian settlement. In the mid to late 1800’s, Plantation Key was known for its considerably rich soil and pineapple plantations. Though the completion of the Overseas Railroad was a paramount milestone in the Florida Keys, it destroyed the agricultural industry in the Upper Keys. Quicker and easier transports opened doors to cheaper produce, such as the Havana Pineapple, that farmers in the Keys could not compete with.
Today, this sought after community is known for its centralized location of inland and waterfront single family homes. A favorite feature by locals include the private boat ramp, making it a breeze to launch and retrieve all your water toys.
Located on the bayside, Plantation Key Colony provides direct access to the Florida Bay and Everglades National Park. Take a short ride north and you can reach the oceanside through Tavernier Creek, which has 15’ of vertical clearance. Tarpon, bonefish, permit, snapper, mahi-mahi and sailfish are all right at the tip of your fingers.
