You can snorkel, but you can see fish just by sitting or standing still in the water. The water at the beach was so clear and beautiful. There are no food or water options on the island, although there are composting toilets and while the ferry is at the dock you are able to use their flush toilets. If you go for the whole day tour, you will need to take a lunch. Look down in the water as you walk and you will see tons of sea life and coral. But it's worth it to walk as much as you can. Part of it was recently damaged, so you can't walk completely around - you have to walk one way, turn around, and then approach from the other direction. We loved the gnarled trees in the yard, and the views from the window openings onto the grounds and water. Fort Jefferson is a picturesque ruin, a tremendous folly considering it was never even finished. We took the all day tour by seaplane, and I am so glad we did, as we got the most time possible on the island. One of the most amazing places I've ever been, and like something out of a dream. ![]()
