Fort Jefferson

Key West

"Put this on your bucket list, words can't describe how cool"
Snorkel with a buddy, no lifeguards on duty
Camp overnight to have the island after ferries leave

A massive unfinished Civil War-era fortress rising out of turquoise water, 70 miles past Key West. Explore the brick ramparts, then snorkel the moat wall alongside fish and coral.
