Fort Jefferson on the Dry Tortugas in the Florida Keys --- 82IMG_7873aa

Our No. 6, their No. 23 Life's 100 Places to See In Your Lifetime, page 23.

 

 

"This 106-mile string of natural gems provide a thoroughly "other" feel, yet you don't have to exchange currency or get a visa because, amazingly, you're still in the States. From Key Largo out to Islamorada - the sport-fishing Capital of the World - to the terminus at Key West, where the sunset ignites an evening carnival, the keys are a different world."

Note: Technically the Dry Tortugas are not part of the keys but an extension of those islands.
