21Dry Tortugas National Park, Florida
Dry Tortugas National Park is ensconced 70-miles off the shore of Key West in the Gulf of Mexico. It’s just 100 square miles in size and mostly water with seven small islands and coral reefs. Thus, it’s accessible only via boat or seaplane. Visitors can partake in boating, kayaking, scuba diving, snorkeling, stargazing, and camping. Perhaps the most popular attraction is Fort Jackson which was built in the 1800s.
