Islands of Discovery: Dry Tortugas National Park

[@ghostshipwarriors1376]

Loved your video! I live in Key West and am a captain that runs charters out to the The Dry Tortugas and didn’t know about this laboratory. I took a group of PTSD veterans out and was able to witness them doing a turtle release. I shared it with all the veterans we have taken out there and hopefully they will enjoy it as well

The elephant in the room that no YTer wants to talk about as far as visiting this park is the $235 cost for the ferry. When you consider that's about the same cost of a cheap 2- or 3-night Caribbean cruise, all meals included, its cost-to-fun ratio may be considered a little high to many if not most.

We're making a short (16 min. or so) video on some of the National Parks. I see you have a lot of videos on KZbin. Are they Creative Commons and would we be able to use short clips from some of them?

Thank you for your message and for supporting the National Park Service with your request for the use of our online videos. We understand that visuals are what compel travelers to visit a destination and many of our national parks. While most of our videos are in the public domain, some of the clips that are featured in those videos are not. It is for that reason we are not able to grant blanket permission for all of our videos. Please contact Mathew John ([e-mail]) with the specifics for the video or the clips featured in the video for availability.

Wow although at the park more than 4 times the light house & Loggerhead Key is something I doubt I'll ever visit in person. Thanks for sharing 🙏

I was in the eyewall of hurricane ian. I have a seaplane(northill) anchor. A seaplane anchor can hold 35 times that of a mushroom(wheight alone) anchor. So my 45lb anchor can hold the equivalent of a 45lb×35= 1575lb solid block of cement. My boat did not thrive in Hurricane ian because of luck. I have been interested in what to do if there is a hurricane and you are in a boat since i was 14 yrs old. I am now 42 years old.

Ranger Curtis , what exactly is "Sussustenance" the word you use at 3:18. ??? The word is -Sustenance...there is no 'sus' preceeding the word. Wow.
