Welcome to Tavernier Florida Vacation Rentals

Tavernier is a census-designated place and town in Monroe County, Florida, on an island named Key Largo in the upper Florida Keys.

TAVERNIER is located immediately south of Key Largo. This quiet community is often the choice of visitors wanting easy access to Key Largo and Islamorada activities and dive sites. For boaters, Tavernier Creek provides access to both Florida Bay and the Atlantic Ocean. Tavernier is also the home of the Florida Keys Wild Bird Rehabilitation Center and Harry Harris Park. Tavernier Key is actually a short distance off of Tavernier. In the 18th century wreckers used this Key as their base during the day and searched the reef at night for booty from ships that had run aground and sank.

Tavernier Attractions and Activities

History

In early writings, the harbor between Tavernier Key and Key Largo is mentioned as a rendezvous area for Bahamian wreckers. It offered a haven from Atlantic gales and a good view of the Upper Keys reefs. In the early 1820s it is believed that slaves were gathered on Key Tavernier to be smuggled into the Bahamas by wreckers, but this has never been documented. It was used as a relay point for some escaped slaves enroute to the Bahamas. Tavernier was spelled Taviniere by the newspapers writing about the incident. Key West, Indian Key and Mystic, Connecticut fishing and wrecking fleets used it after 1821.
