This is a nice park as well (but still in love with Curry Hammock) with more areas to explore and more sites. The park is not as neat with more growth, but it is older as well and shows her age. Within the park there is the remnants of the old train tracks built by Henry Flagler's Overseas Railroad that spanned the Keys in the early 1900's. We walked out on the old bridge that once held the train and now takes people out over the water some 20-30 feet in the air over the deep channel that connects the Gulf and the Atlantic.
Bahia Honda has a very long stretch of beach and walking trails through the Sea Grapes that remind me of the Bahamas. No Crabzilla but I did see an large Iguana. But the beaches are kept natural which means the sea grass covers many parts of the beach and with the recent full moon, that includes dead jelly fish that smell up the beach. It's still lovely and many of the beachcombers have decorated a few of the Sea Grapes with shells and sponges that washed up on the shore. The best sites in this park are #14-16 and in the Sandspur area, which is more tents and small campers, site #72 looks really nice and is large enough for our rig.
