Egmont Key

Egmont Key is a large sandbar and a state park. Gradually eroding, it is beautiful and has a fascinating history, with an old lighthouse on the island, plus the crumbling remains of Fort Dade. There’s also a public ferry here, and the island is excellent for snorkeling amongst the ruins of the fort. Egmont Key is eroding and has lost much of its landmass in recent years, so you may want to visit soon!
