West Martello Tower and Key West Garden Club

West Martello Tower and Key West Garden Club is a non-profit organization located at the National Historic site of West Martello Tower. The club provides educational opportunities about tropical gardening to the community. Visitors can explore beautiful gardens that were once an old fort, filled with colorful flowers, lush greenery, and historic brick arches. The gardens offer scenic views of the beach and water, along with some nice seating options for relaxation. This delightful oasis creates a perfect blend of tropical elegance and old Key West charm, making it an ideal spot for photo opportunities. The garden is free to enter, but donations are appreciated. Information about the garden's history and plant layout is available through a provided laminated sheet for visitors to return. Those interested in gardening will find the enthusiastic volunteers eager to share their knowledge of the plants. The gardens are fun to walk through, with many native plants and some nice ocean views. Visitors can enjoy snapping photos and strolling at their own pace. The club also offers a variety of plants for sale at reasonable prices, including a beautiful bonsai that some visitors have taken home. While parking can be a bit challenging, the overall experience is wonderful for wandering, taking photos, or enjoying the intimate atmosphere. The Key West Garden Club is a lovely venue for anyone looking to appreciate nature and history in a unique setting.
