Volunteers spotted our two Blue Hole alligators getting snugly last week. We are entering the typical mating season for alligators in the Florida Keys. In years past the female alligator has laid eggs, and guarded her nest, but most folks can't remember every having young gators hatch in Blue Hole. There are numerous records of young alligators throughout Big Pine and many of the other Lower Florida Keys islands, so they are successful in other more natural habitats. video credit: Kathy Rhodes |

If you’re looking for easy, keep scrolling! The Annual Swim for Alligator Light is an 8 mile open-water race through some of the clearest water in the Keys. It’s tough, it’s iconic, and definitely not for the faint of heart 💪🏼 Go solo with a support kayaker or split the distance with a relay team of 2 to 4 swimmers. Either way, it’s one of the wildest open-water swims in the world... and it comes with serious bragging rights. 📍 September 13, 2025 🏁 Amara Cay Resort 🏊🏼 swimalligatorlight.co
