The Florida Keys in the USA are the exposed portions of an ancient coral reef. The northern most island arising from the ancient reef formation is Elliott Key, in Biscayne National Park. North of Elliott Key are several small transitional keys, composed of sand built up around small areas of exposed ancient reef. Further north, Key Biscayne and places north are barrier islands, built up of sand.

Major islands

U.S. Highway 1, the Overseas Highway runs over most of the inhabited islands of the Florida Keys. The islands are listed in order from northeast to southwest. The main chain of Keys islands are traversabile by automobile on the Overseas Highway, a 127 mile section of US Highway 1, which runs from Key West to Maine in its entirety. The highway was built parallel to the original route of the Overseas Railway.

One of the longest bridges when it was built, the Seven Mile Bridge connects Knight's Key ( part of the city of Marathon in the Middle Keys ) to Little Duck Key in the Lower Keys. Almost true to its name, the piling supported concrete bridge is 6.79 miles long. The current bridge bypasses Pigeon Key, a small island that housed workers.

The well known and very sour Key lime ( or Mexican lime ) is a naturalized species, apparently introduced from the Yucatán Peninsula of Mexico, where it had previously been introduced from Malaysia by explorers from Spain. The tree grows vigorously and has thorns, and produces golf ball size yellow fruit which is particularly acidic (even in highly alkaline coral sand soil) and uniquely fragrant. Naturally, Key lime pie was invented here as well.
