Layton / Long Key Real Estate & Waterfront Homes

Long and narrow, with the Atlantic on one side and Florida Bay on the other, so water views and sea breezes are never far away.

Welcome to Layton / Long Key

A small-town escape framed by open water, flats and natural shoreline
 
Long Key and the tiny incorporated City of Layton offer a slower, more secluded version of Middle Keys life. Long Key is long and narrow, with the Atlantic on one side and Florida Bay on the other, so water views and sea breezes are never far away. Layton sits near the center of the island and is one of the smallest cities in Florida, prized for its relaxed pace, close-knit feel and convenient position between Islamorada and Marathon. Much of the surrounding landscape remains low-density and nature-focused, making this a special choice for buyers who value privacy, kayaking, flats fishing and an unhurried waterfront lifestyle.
 

LOCAL DETAIL

Long Key was once home to Henry Flagler's celebrated Long Key Fishing Camp, promoted by author and sportsman Zane Grey. Long Key State Park continues the island's outdoor tradition with paddling, birding and shallow-water exploration.
 

ON THE WATER

Rather than a single party sandbar, the signature experience here is exploring Long Key Bight, nearby backcountry flats and the Content Keys by boat. Shallow water, tides and protected habitats make local knowledge especially valuable.
 

WHERE TO EAT

Florida Boy Bar & Grill for casual local flavor; Oceans305 at Lime Tree Bay Resort for waterfront dining; and Habanos Oceanfront Dining for Cuban-influenced seafood and water views. Islamorada and Marathon add many more choices within an easy drive.
 

NOTABLE NEIGHBORHOODS & COMMUNITIES

The City of Layton and Long Key Estates; Long Key Lake Estates; and the residential and resort properties lining both the bay and ocean sides of Overseas Highway.
