Keys Exotic: The Florida Keys Beyond the Postcard
An independent magazine investigating the Florida Keys through odd histories, local characters, underwater stories, public records, and recurring curiosities.
Field notes
Keys Exotic divides its reporting into eight named beats, including “The Files” for permits, public meetings, and other documents, and “The Mile” for a mile-marker-by-mile-marker portrait of the region. Its recurring “One Strange Thing” feature focuses on a single object, rumor, photograph, building, animal, or event and approaches it with curiosity and skepticism. The homepage also outlines planned email dispatches and digital collections, while noting that the newsletter form is not yet connected.
