About Stock Island
Stock Island is the working waterfront island just east of Key West in Monroe County, home to the shrimp fleet, marinas, and a growing number of restaurants and art spaces. Housing is a mix of modest conch cottages, newer townhomes, and liveaboard-friendly marinas, far cheaper than Key West proper. It has an authentic, slightly gritty Keys character with sunset views over the harbor.
