Although it's conveniently located only a few hundred yards from U.S. Route 1, Indian Key Historic State Park can only be reached by boat or by kayak. The 11-acre island is no longer inhabited, but it still holds the remains of a ghost town that was constructed in the early 1800s. Visitors can now explore the island by strolling through the recreated street system; other popular activities here include canoeing, kayaking, and fishing on the island's flats. The park is open between 8 a.m. and sunset every day of the year, and a small entrance fee is charged.
