A PLACE TO REMEMBER

Make room for the wonder.

A tropical island landscape brings beaches, wooded slopes and human history into one park visit. Choose a manageable mix of shoreline time, a short walk and historic-site interpretation.

Choose the stops that suit your time and your party. These are ideas for exploring, rather than a fixed itinerary or a promise that every road, trail or facility will be open.

Before you set out

Coordinate ferry and ground transport carefully. Check swimming conditions, facilities and any fees or reservations for your chosen beach or activity.

Give the day room

Allow time for the approach, parking and breaks. Pick walks for the least mobile members of your party, and leave space for weather or a change of plans.

Bring your group

Confirm vehicle access, drop-off and parking with the park. Check any guided tours, transport and accessibility arrangements before fixing the rest of the itinerary.

Check the official NPS guide for current access, fees, passes, reservations and permits. Gateway names identify useful surrounding communities or access areas, not exact entrance directions. Photographs may show earlier seasons or conditions.
