Dry Tortugas National Park

Category: Tourist Attractions 👁 100 views

The park is located on a small island about 109 kilometers west of Key West, so visitors can only get there by boat or plane. It offers a secluded, off-the-beaten-path experience with abundant marine life and several giant sea turtles. Diving enthusiasts can enjoy underwater activities here, where they might spot sharks, get up close to coral reefs, and even see remnants of shipwrecks—it’s truly fascinating. In the center of the park stands a massive unfinished fortress, the largest masonry structure in the Western Hemisphere. Visitors can take a stroll, go diving, and for those interested, spending the night camping here is also a great option.
