FLORIDA IS THE ONLY STATE WHERE A CHANNEL IS MARKED WITH DECORATED TOILET SEATS.
This is true! The shallow, man-made channel in Islamorada is known as the Toilet Seat Cut, where you’ll see over 250 colorfully decorated toilet seats come into view as your boat approaches.
Locals believe that this quirky trend made its debut after Hurricane Donna’s destruction and redistribution of household debris in 1960. Apparently, one toilet seat ended up hanging from a homemade post, and voila, a trend was born.
