The Key West Garden Club, also known as the West Martello Tower, is located on Atlantic Boulevard on Higgs Beach overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. The garden is free and open to the public, and volunteers are responsible for its upkeep. Its educational goal is to teach people about tropical gardening.

There are brick pathways that lead visitors through arched courtyards amid lush tropical plants including bromeliads and orchids; there is also a lovely water lily pond and a waterfall. The West Martello Tower is a Civil War citadel that is listed in the U.S. National Register of Historic Places. Special events such as weddings are often held in the garden’s white gazebos.
