Monroe County has reopened the public boat ramp located on the bayside at the end of Blimp Road on Cudjoe Key (Mile Marker 21.2) in time for Florida’s lobster mini-season, which takes place this Wednesday and Thursday.
The boat ramp had been temporarily closed while it served as a staging area for environmental mitigation work at Tarpon Belly Keys associated with the Taxiway A Improvement Project at Key West International Airport. The project is now finished. Boaters are welcome to use the ramp for launching and retrieving vessels.
Monroe County appreciates the public’s patience during the temporary closure. Please have a safe lobster mini-season.
