KeyWestSeaplanes.com."
Key West Seaplanes® representative, Julie Ann Floyd adds, "Our seaplanes can start from anywhere on the mainland, not just Miami International. We can pick you up at Watson Island Seaplane Base, Fort Lauderdale International, Boca Raton, Naples, Orlando, you name it and we'll be there to whisk you away to your tropical paradise!" The company's seaplanes are amphibious, so the seaplanes land on water and also on land. Floyd continues, "Our seaplanes are very versatile.

Key West Seaplanes® Little Palm Island seaplane service is featured in the Departures Magazine article entitled "Driven to Distraction". This wonderful article is adorned with amazing aerial photographs which are all shot from aboard a Key West Seaplanes® aircraft and taken by photographer Chris Trotman. The lead of the article displays a two-page aerial shot taken over the magnificent Seven Mile Bridge on the way to Little Palm Island. There are also other featured photos such as an aerial photo of the private Little Palm Island Resort and Spa. Key West Seaplanes® pilot and co-owner shares, "We enjoy featuring low-level aerial sightseeing as part of our private seaplane charter service to Little Palm Island. Everyone enjoys taking photos and seeing The Keys and Little Palm Island from the air. There are also ample opportunities to see wild life under the water such as dolphin, turtle, rays and even manatee in season."
Writer Heydari describes the angelic Little Palm Island as "Accessible only by boat or seaplane (see "Getting There"), the tiny two-hectare islet is one of the 'back country' atolls, many of them largely uninhabited in The Keys. It has been a haven for the likes of Truman and fellow Commander-in-Chief John F. Kennedy since the 1920s." He also adds "Today it welcomes au fait holidaymakers who bed down in one of the 30 thatched, TV-less bungalows and avail themselves a petite spa, a restaurant, a whole host of leisure activities, but mostly of the calm and quiet of the surroundings."
Key West Seaplanes® Julie Ann Floyd shares, "Key West Seaplanes® can make it happen for you. We will arrange your flight from any airport of water-based point and take you direct to Little Palm Island. We are also more than happy to assist in your reservation process at Little Palm Island." Many guests also use Key West Seaplanes® charters to Little Palm Island for lunch, brunch, breakfast and even dinner. Floyd adds, "Many people find themselves in Key West, Marathon or on the Florida mainland searching for a peaceful or romantic getaway just for the day. Little Palm is perfect for that experience, too. We make it very easy by taking care of all reservations and coordinating your meal reservations with Little Palm Island."
Writer Heydari agrees in his article with "Service is impeccable and unpretentious" at Little Palm Island. He assures everyone at Key West Seaplanes® that he will certainly be back for another visit.
