Bahia Honda seems to be our goal. Dry Tortugas and Fort Jefferson are also on the list. Visiting Key West is a must. Either Marathon Coast Guard Station or Key West Naval Air Station could hold a viable possibility, as we have access. And as far as timing goes, it would more than likely be the end of April or early May with a duration of only up to 4 days. We have a long ways to get there and do have some at home responsibilities to tend to so we can't spend too much time there. I'd love to coordinate a stay at Long Key SP as well and add a day or two.
And as for seeing New Orleans, AIN'T NO TREES THERE. We went down there to camp not party. Another day and another time, maybe.
Thanks for all the great info.
If you are going to Key West to "Camp, not party"; my advise is to don't waste your time. The only thing to do in Key West is party. It used to be nice to watch the sunset in Mallory Square, but the high rise hotels have ruined that.
Get a good RV park in Key Largo. then you have access to all the keys and the southern Everglades which is only an hour away.
Take a run down to Key West one day and drive through and then on the way back stop at Bahia Honda state park which has the best sand beaches on the Keys.
