Key West Bight

 

February, 2010.

We visited Key West Bight marina and restaurants on many occasions. Key West Bight is one of the places where everyone visiting Key West spends time. It is where you board the boat that takes you to Dry Tortugas. It is where many of the Sunset Cruise Boats are located. It is also the dock where the Key West Express docks.

This is one of those poles that gives directions and distance to cities far away. The pole is located at Key West Bight (the large marina).

They were loading this dumpster transport truck on the Sunset Key Ferry boat when we were passing by today. This is the largest load we have seen on the ferry. Boats in the background are docked at Key West Bight Marina.

This is what the dumpster truck looks like when loaded on the Sunset Key vehicle ferry. The captain will be picking up that front door momentarily, as he backs off the ramp. The landing craft is transporting this truck and the trash dumpster to Sunset Key.

 

Notice that HUGE black private yacht at the gas dock in Key West Bight. One thing I would not want to do is fill that thing up with diesel fuel.

We took this picture from the Coast Guard Station, overlooking Key West Bight, near our campground. We obviously got a late start and did not make it to Mallory Square and had to settle for our sunset picture from here.

B.O.'s Fish Wagon at Key West Bight

 

 

 

 

This is an old truck outside B.O's. fish Wagon. That old truck is an icon. It is one of the places tourist gather to get their pictures made. You can find it one block south of Key West Bight.

This is the Key West Express a large catamaran that runs between Ft. Myers and Key West on a daily basis. From what we can see they do a good business. It docks in the Key West Bight Marina.
