At 70 nautical square miles, this Florida state park is huge. Scuba divers and snorkelers love it here because the warm waters harbor a gigantic coral reef system. Crystal-clear visibility makes it easy to see everything underneath you.
Fish include sergeant majors, blue tang (Dory!), chubs, and bar jacks. Slow down a bit when you swim through Molasses Reef by Key Largo.
If diving isn't your thing, BYOB (bring your own boat). Explore the beautiful water on a canoe or kayak. Hire a tour guide with a special glass-bottom boat so you can see the reef without getting wet. You can fish, but it's permitted in designated areas only.
Campsites range from rustic to full facilities with hookups. Some sites put you near the water, while others have tropical hammocks for you to enjoy. Walk some of the trails near your camps
