Adams Key


Adams Key lies on the north side of the swift-moving Caesar Creek. Once home to the famed Cocolobo Club, a retreat for people like Carl Fisher, Gar Wood, and Presidents Harding, Hoover, Johnson and Nixon, Adams Key is now a day-use area open from dawn until dusk. A short trail leads through the hardwood hammock, and a picnic pavilion and toilets are also available. There are also two park ranger families living on the island.

There are a lot of outdoor activities offered at Adams Key including kayaking, boating, fishing, diving and numerous adventure tours. Hiking is especially popular in the area and numerous hiking tours are available. The two campgrounds open in the area are open year round due to the mild weather. Boat transportation must be provided to the surrounding islands and most of the campgrounds are offered at a first come first serve basis. Registration for the campgrounds can be made at the kiosk located next to the harbor. There is an automated registration machine available that accepts US currency only.

Camping rules and information can also be picked up at the kiosk and regulations must be adhered to. There are no ground fires allowed near or around the camping sites.
