A trip to Dry Tortugas National Park is the ultimate eco-adventure. Consisting of seven islands in the Florida Keys, the property is a national park that is home to historical Fort Jefferson as well as colorful coral reefs, a variety of bird species and, of course, the sea turtles for which the islands were named.

A ferry transports visitors from Key West to Fort Jefferson, where they can enjoy the tropical breezes rustling the palm trees along secluded beaches before returning to Key West in the evening. Those who can’t bear to leave after spending only one day on the islands can stay and camp under the stars.
