Review & FAQ:

Biscayne National Park was established in 1968 and covers 270 square miles, 95% of which is water. It extends from Key Largo to Key Biscayne, with pockets of land on the mainland. The park's mission is to protect and preserve the delicate ecology of the ocean, islands, coral reefs and mangrove swamps under its jurisdiction.

Many of the campsites are only accessible by boat. Canoeing, kayaking, swimming and hiking are also popular pursuits, as are viewing wildlife, photography and just relaxing. The Maritime Heritage Trail combines a boat trip, snorkeling and scuba diving. Six charted shipwrecks and a marine lighthouse are visited.
