Loggerhead Beach

Loggerhead Beach features a sandy coastline with clear waters along the Florida Keys, providing views of the Atlantic Ocean and Gulf of Mexico.

The beach obtained its name from the native loggerhead turtles that have nested along this stretch of Monroe County coastline for thousands of years.

Local residents maintain beach preservation efforts to protect marine wildlife, particularly during the loggerhead turtle nesting season from April through October.

Visitors can access the beach through Big Pine Key, with limited parking facilities available near the shoreline and recommended early morning arrival times.

Marine scientists regularly monitor this beach location as it serves as a critical habitat for multiple endangered sea turtle species in the Florida Keys.
