Fort Zachary Taylor Historic State Park
You will first notice the massive walls of the Civil War-era fort that anchors this Florida State Park. Known also as Fort Taylor, the site was started in 1845 and is located near the southern tip of Key West. It is recognized as a National Historic Landmark and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. I've found that the breeze here is usually a welcome break from the midday sun, making it a great spot to wander through the ruins while enjoying the ocean air.
