Most of the 7,500 square feet were empty. The front desk kept pushing for us to buy art from the cheesy art show. It was an empty and weird place. The aquarium that they boast: only 2 fish tanks. We saw all three movies and learned a lot about the area.

A small museum with some interesting exhibits and a movie theater with films running every 30 minutes or so. Pretty expensive for what you get but we learned some of the history of the keys. Not a tourist trap.

My husband was doing research in their archives for an article he is writing. I spent the time watching two movies and touring the discovery center. VERY worthwhile time spent. I learned so much from both activities. The story of how Flagler had the vision and then where-with-all to build the railroad into the Keys is truly amazing.
And, the grounds are spectacular for holding any special event.

A liitle hard to find the place but realized that you had to go into the Islander Resort parking lot before getting to the museum.
The museum covers the history of the Islamorada area and has two movies on the subject. One is the Henry Flagler railroad story and the other is the 1935 Memorial Day hurricane.

Now my husband and I listened to a history of this hurricane at the Custom’s House in Key West but it does not delve into the personal tragedies nearly to the extent as this movie. The video was made in 1997 and is told by the last still living survivors up to that point. Their stories really drive home how horrific this storm was and shows the toughness and resilience if these people who came through it. It was truely a moving experience to watch.

On the main floor the exhibits take you back to pre-colonial days up to the twentieth century and there were actual relics ranging from old spainish couns to a full size cannon. There display are interactive as well. Upon entering you are greeted by some lovely aquariums to see beautiful tropical fish.

The woman who greeted us was charming and chatted with us awhile.

This was a nice way to spend a couple of hours .

Hidden. If you are somehow able to find this place, it’s indoor with air-conditioning. There is a good historical film upstairs on the devastating hurricane that Hemingway wrote about. That film contains some unique footage. Nice aquarium (small) leads to some historical displays in a chronological order. The unique display on famous keys fishing captains/guides was excellent.

This was a good place to stop and learn some interesting facts and history about the Florida Keys. However, there's not a whole bunch here and therefore is a little bit pricey unless you are planning on staying for the theater bit.

On 6 previous trips to Marathon, I had never heard of this place. This trip, I overheard someone on the Pigeon Key tram recommending it so my husband & I went. On Hwy 1, look for the Islander Resort; the museum sign is difficult to see and the building isn't visible from the road. The museum is small and contains very well done exhibits on the history of the Keys. The 2 films on the building of the railroad and the 1935 hurricane are excellent. When we were there, there was also an art exhibit of local artists. It takes about an hour for the films and another hour for the exhibits. I would not recommend this for children under 12 or even teens unless they're into this sort of thing.

It is very interesting to learn of the industry, early civilizations and development of the Florida Keys. The museum is well done with in-depth information surrounding each of these topics along with artifacts from each era.

Small museum consists of 3 aquariums, artifacts , and rotating exhibit. Upstairs has nice theater with movies of the Flagler's Overseas Hwy build and one of the big hurricane in the 30's. Very interesting but someone needs to restore quality of film if possible. Pixeled, grainy and blue accent lights surrounding screen is too bright and detracts from what you can view on screen. Still a great way to spend a couple of hours and very interesting and informative.
