Key West Dry Tortugas & Fort Jefferson

The Dry Tortugas National Park and Fort Jefferson are one of Key West’s many natural wonders. Here you can feel like you are part of local history while discovering the fort and learning about the early days of Fort Jefferson. But the Dry Tortugas National Park is also known for beautiful and diverse flora and fauna, both on land and in the water. White sandy beaches invite to take a break and relax in the breeze by the water. The Dry Tortugas is also an excellent snorkeling site with its living reef and diverse sea life. Beginning and advanced snorkelers will have a great time exploring the fabulous underwater world within feet from Fort Jefferson. And not only the park itself is fascinating, even the journey there will in itself be an exciting experience as we look out for dolphins, sea turtles, and other marine creatures on our way to the Dry Tortugas National Park and Fort Jefferson.
