A stop at World Wide Sportsman in Islamorada could be one of the highlights of your Bluegreen vacation at The Hammocks in Marathon or Solara Surfside in Miami. This amazing emporium is a virtual paradise for outdoor enthusiasts. It contains an outdoor library, reel counter, rod and reel repair, salt and fresh water fishing departments, marine department, everglades aquarium, apparel, Zane Grey lounge and an art gallery.It’s hard to know where to begin in this vast funhouse, and everyone in your group might be pulled a different direction, so put your phones in your pockets before you head inside. Upon entering, the first thing you’ll notice is the amazing size of the place. Two story interiors allow for all sorts of eye-popping surprises to be located inside, from full size boats to prize-winning gamefish and murals.
Kids will go bananas, but frankly, so will papa. Mom might follow suit. It’s hard to keep your jaw from dropping in World Wide Sportsman, part of the Bass Pro Shops line of stores. An Everglades aquarium is but one wonder awaiting you inside this amazing destination.Anglers in your Bluegreen group will disappear and might never be seen again. Just kidding! But the amount of gear and accessories on hand for them to discover is boggling. And the staff is knowledgeable, particularly about local fish. Whether you’re looking for a new lure, a special rod, polarized glasses, Columbia apparel, or something cool for your boat, you’re going to find it here.
You can even arrive by boat if you choose; there’s a dock right out back. And if you’re shy on marine electronics, that’s not a problem. You can get a new depth finder, a GPS, weather tracker . . . and a boat to put it all in, if the moment moves you.
Bluegreen campers will feel right at home in the section of the store designed to fuel their fantasies. Coleman, Camp Chef, Jetboil and Coghlans products will have nature lovers ready to gear up and hit the great outdoors.Fashionistas will love the artfully displayed clothing selection at World Wide Sportsman, where brands include Marquesas, Infinity Angler, Guy Harvey and many other big names.
