Getting Around

Biscayne National Park is 95% water, so seeing anything beyond the visitor center area requires a boat. The park"s concessioner offers several options, including glass-bottom boat tours, snorkel and dive trips and island excursions. Canoes and kayaks are an ideal way to explore the park"s mangrove shoreline, and can be rented from the park"s concessioner.
