Incredible snorkeling in Dry Tortuga National Park: Key West, Florida
Dry Tortugas National Park is located in the Gulf of Mexico, 70 miles west of Key West, Florida. It's made up of 7 islands. It gets its name from the lack of water and abundant sea turtles (tortuga is turtle in Spanish). Dry Tortuga is the most remote National Park in the lower 48 states.
Most visitors arrive in Dry Tortugas National Park by either boat or seaplane from Key West. There are no road connections to Dry Tortugas, and cars cannot access the islands.
The archipelago's coral reefs are the least disturbed of the Florida Keys reefs. The park is noted for abundant sea life, tropical bird breeding grounds, colorful coral reefs, and legends of shipwrecks and sunken treasures. The park's centerpiece is Fort Jefferson, a massive coastal fortress. Fort Jefferson is the largest brick masonry structure in the Western Hemisphere and is composed of more than 16 million bricks. During the Civil War, the fort was used as a prison.
Dry Tortugas National Park is part of the Everglades & Dry Tortugas Biosphere Reserve, established by UNESCO in 1976 under its Man and the Biosphere Programme.
We were completely blown away by the beauty of this place! Spent most of our day snorkeling but the Fort is definitely worth the couple hours to tour!
