RV Vacation Idea:
Dry Tortugas National Park
Florida
Although only accessible by boat or seaplane, Dry Tortugas National Park is one you don't want to miss.
The park, which lies about 70 miles west of Key West is home to Fort Jefferson and provides a fascinating history lesson. Built in the mid 1800's, the fort was never actually completed and is comprised of over 16 million bricks. The purpose was to protect the shipping channel to the United States. The fort boasts the unique distinction of being the largest masonry structure in the Western Hemisphere.
The islands were discovered and named in 1513 by Juan Ponce de Leon, who caught 160 sea turtles there, hence the name Tortugas (Turtles).
History buffs will love this park, but there are other reasons to visit. Enjoy snorkeling, sea fishing, bird watching, or just view the incredible sunsets. Whatever your reason, don't wait! A little advanced planning will ensure an enjoyable trip here. Check out the "Plan Your Visit" page on the National Park Service's website for information.
There are no campgrounds within the park. Check out their page for nearby rv camping and more information.
The closest El Monte RV rental location is in Miami, FL. However, if starting your trip from another location is more convenient, we also have many other rental offices, so please visit our locations map to find a location that may be more suitable.

 Terra Pass Carbon Offset Option
We believe in Green RV'ing! El Monte RV offers customers a way to offset the carbon emissions from their motorhome vacation by requesting the carbon offset option. This option is completely voluntary and is a very nominal fee. We encourage you to consider this when booking your trip!
You can request the carbon offset option when you reserve via the call center, or when picking up at the rental counter. It's easy, affordable, and every cent of this nominal fee goes straight to Terra Pass to fund various carbon-offsetting programs.
El Monte RV Cares!
