 This is a State Park so their is a fee to get in. This is by far the
best beaches in the Florida Keys. It actually has little waves which
helps replenish its sandy beaches. People visiting Key West will make
this a full day trip back up the Keys. It is 36 miles from Key West.





There are three camping areas in the park
with 80 campsites for RV campers
and tents. All have access
to rest rooms and showers.
Call 305-872-2353 for reservations



The channel between the old and new Bahia Honda bridges is one of the deepest natural channels in the Florida Keys. Bahia Honda is unique among other islands in the Keys because it has extensive sandy beaches and deep waters close enough offshore to provide exceptional swimming and snorkeling.
