SHIPWRECK MUSEUM

Florida Keys Discount Attractions

Enjoy this exhibit, as it reveals a unique perspective into shipbreaking and salvage operations. Yes, this was a big deal back at that time. Everything moved via the water and the Port of Key West, this is to Cuba and the Caribbean. The ships carried valuable cargo and often fell prey to poor weather and the Key West reef system. Everything about this period just fascinates me. The low-cost attractions like this in the Florida Keys are value priced.

Finding the loot in Key West
After you spend a week or two down in the City of Key West, it all starts to sink in about the once mighty industry. Yes, pulling up and salvaging the cargo made lots of people rich and provided plenty of employment opportunities for the people on the island.
