Indian Key Historic State Park is only accessible by boat. Immerse yourself in the long ago ways of the wrecking industry. In 1836, Indian Key became the first county seat for Dade County. At that time, this tiny island was the site of a lucrative business-salvaging cargo from shipwrecks in the Florida Keys. This 11-acre island is deserted except for the ruins of a town that existed in the early 1800’s. Please see their website for times,  accessibility and  schedules. https://www.floridastateparks.org/IndianKey

 Effective Sept. 29, 2021: Indian Key Historic State Park is accessible only via kayak launch. The boat ramp at Indian Key Fill is closed due to storm damage. The observation tower is also closed. 

Lignumvitae Key Botanical State Park is also only accessible by boat. The virgin tropical hardwood hammock that thrives on this island was once common on most of Florida’s Upper Keys; most of these forests have been lost to development on other islands. In 1919, William J. Matheson, a wealthy Miami chemist, bought this tiny island and built a caretaker’s home with a windmill for electricity and a cistern for rainwater. Today, his hideaway is the visitor center for this island forest. Please see their website for times,  accessibility and  schedules.  https://www.floridastateparks.org/LignumvitaeKey
