Boca Chita Key as never seen before Biscayne National Park U S National Park Service
Boca Chita Key as never seen before Biscayne National Park U S National Park Service.We love spending time on Boca Chita. It's our favorite place to get away for a weekend or week at a time. It's interesting to learn about our Biscayne National Parks and for me, especially the northern Key Islands. Our MASTER PLAN includes lots of exploring these islands. At the end of this video, you'll see photos never seen before by the public.

Thanks for sharing. Very cool photos of the old yachts.
Kinda surprised so many millionaires hanging out in Fl just after the depression

I Have never been but have wanted to go but I think my 5’ draft will keep me out. Are you taking your 58 in there? And can you tie up overnight?

5’ is fine and yes you can tie up overnight. Just remember that from June thru October mosquitoes rule Boca Chita.
The shallowest spot is at the end of the channel, closest to the island with about 6’ MLW

I enjoyed the videos. I will definetly put in on my list maybe next winter. BTW love your boat. Do you blow the big black fenders up? And then deflate to stow?

I use one at my home port so I leave it filled. The other I inflate as needed. But it seems to be overkill so next time I'm leaving one home and take the other as backup.

Thanks for sharing, was hoping to make it there sometime when the mosquitoes are not ruling the island.
