Key Colony Beach things to do
Kcb recreation
A Little Island With a Lot Going On
Stay As Long As You Can.
Don’t let the size fool you. Key Colony Beach is its own self-contained municipality – complete with a police department, City Hall, Post Office, bike paths, parks, playgrounds, and more. It’s the kind of place where you can leave the car keys on the counter and explore everything on foot or by bike.
And the best part? Most of it is just steps from Manatee Bungalow’s front door.
Inside the Home
Walking, Jogging & Bicycle Paths
The whole island is your trail. Designated pedestrian and bicycle paths wind through Key Colony Beach, with three marked master courses stretching 0.4, 0.5, and 0.8 miles – course maps are posted in front of City Hall.
Follow the routes along Sadowski Causeway, East Ocean Drive, and West Ocean Drive for a breezy ride or a peaceful morning jog with water views at every turn.
Need a bike? Two on property and local delivery is just a text or call away.
Safe, fun play areas just steps away.
Playgrounds – Right Across the Street
One of Key Colony Beach’s playgrounds sits directly across the street from Manatee Bungalow – making this an ideal home base for families with little ones.
Both KCB playgrounds are well-equipped and full of fun:
- Sliding boards, swings & see-saws
- Merry-go-round & tetherball
- Dome gym climber & swinging bridge
- Spring hobby horses
- Shaded areas & Tiki huts for picnicking
- Dog park
Just cross the street and let the kids run wild while you soak up the sunshine. ☀️

- 🎾 Tennis courts
