Murray Dixon, The Tides Hotel, where Clark Gable and members of the Kennedy family have stayed, is a classic and a true representative of tropical Art Deco.

Fort Jefferson, a Star of the Sea

 In the Gulf of Mexico, about 70 miles west of Key West, is a group of small islands discovered by Juan Ponce de León in 1513. He named them “Tortugas” because of the quantity of turtles he found there. The word “Dry” was added later on as a sign of their lack of water.
