Discovered by Ponce de Leon in 1513, these 7 islands 70 miles west of Key West in Florida are reachable only by boat or seaplane, and they're not kidding about dry—you must bring your own water. The park contains rambling 19th century Fort Jefferson, and is a feast for birders (sooty terns, brown noodies, cormorants and pelicans) but their primary attraction is the surrounding marine life, perfect for fishing, scuba diving to wrecks and snorkeling on the coral reef. There's camping, but no lodging.
