Vist the Dry Tortugas with Key West Seaplane Adventures
70 miles west of Key West, FL lies North America's most inaccessible National Park, the Dry Tortugas. The park is renowned for its marine life, pirate legends and sheer unspoiled beauty. It is dominated by its central feature, the majestic Fort Jefferson, the largest brick building in the western hemisphere.
Step back in time and explore the history that is Fort Jefferson. Sunbathe on a remote white sand beach or snorkel the living reef in the warm crystal clear waters.
Seaplane - Key West to Dry Tortugas via Key West Seaplane Adventures
During my trip to Key West I had the opportunity to go on a seaplane from Key West International Airport in Key West Florida to Fort Jefferson, Dry Tortugas National Park. It was an awesome experience. The entire sight seeing flight took around 30 minutes. We flew on a DHC-3T DeHavilland Turbine Otter. Look out for part 2 which is the return flight back. More videos coming so subscribe. Thank you for watching!

Seaplane from Key West to Dry Tortugas in the Florida Keys
The quickest and most spectacular way to reach DryTortugas National Park from Key West is by seaplane. Key West Seaplane Adventures took us there and back and it was a memorable experience. This video should convince you to do the same next time you are in the Keys!

Ferry to Fort Jefferson - Dry Tortugas National Park - Key West, Florida
By far the most amazing adventure we did in Key West was taking the Dry Tortugas National Park Ferry, the Yankee Freedom III, to Fort Jefferson in the Dry Tortugas National Park. After a somewhat rocky 2 1/2 hour boat ride we were able to explore the third largest fort in the USA, the kids got their junior ranger badges, and we snorkeled as a family for the very first time. We were blown away with how awesome the ferry service was. From start to finish, the staff was exceptional. Not only did they feed us two meals, but they provided everything we needed (and took exceptional care of those that were motion sick). We would highly recommend this adventure for other families looking to get to a more remote location! If we get the chance to go again we would definitely choose to pay the small fee to camp for several nights on the island.
Always AD FREE and EDUCATIONAL!

Dry Tortugas/Fort Jefferson, Key West, FL
Took a 45 minute seaplane flight from key west international airport to the Dry Tortugas and Fort Jefferson. The plane only holds 10 people. Almost 70 miles west of Key West. In 1846 is when the construction of Fort Jefferson began.Some of the cannons that you see could shoot up to 6 miles I used with my gopro hero 3+ black and Nikon d7100
Key West Snorkeling - GoPro HERO 4 - 1080p
This was an amazing trip with really good friends out to Key West, FL. I never thought snorkeling would be this fun and didn't realize what beautiful things the ocean has to offer.
Fury Water Adventure was who we booked our tour with, so if you ever get the chance to go to Key West, don't forget to give these guys a call and you'll be happy you did.
Everything was shot from my GoPro Hero 4 Silver Edition using 1080p Superview setting and was later edited on GoPro Studio for the final result.

Snorkeling in Key West
Have you every want to know how to snorkel?! Me too! That's why I took a bus trip to Key West from Miami, FL to learn how to snorkel! The bus ride from Miami to Key West took about 4 hours... I slept majority of the way to save energy! Our bus fair to Key West was $40 round trip per person. The cost to snorkel was $40. We used this snorkeling company in Key West called Sunset Water Sports for our Coral Reef Key West Snorkel Tour. Snorkeling in Key West was amazing! The Coral Reef was a beautiful sight to see. Our Key West snorkel tour company offered the best way to Snorkel the tropical waters around Key West. It was a 3 Hour Key West Reef Snorkel trip that lets you see the coral reef. We had professional instructors on board the boat. Sunset Water Sports provided all snorkel equipment: snorkel mask, Snorkel fins, snorkel, Snorkel vest and swim noodles. After snorkeling, we ate the most delicious key lime pie from the best key lime pie bakery in Kew West, Kermit’s Key West Key Lime Shoppe! While we’re most known for Kermit’s Key Lime Pie, considered the best there is by Food Network, National Geographic, Paula Deen and others, Key Lime Pie is only the beginning! If your looking for the best key lime pie, Kermit's got them.
Check out Sun Sunset Water Sports, tell them Brittany sent you!
Then head over to Kermit's Key Lime Pie for a sweet treat!

On the day of Chad's actual 50th birthday, we took a trip we've been wanting to do for years - a seaplane ride to the Dry Tortugas National Park and Fort Jefferson National Monument.
We should have mentioned this in the video, but the stairs were fine. They just got dragged along mostly dirt. Luckily, Tara noticed quickly!
