April 2, Bahia Honda Key, FL
We moved east from Key West into Hawk Channel about 30 miles to Little Palm Island where we docked and had an very nice (and expensive) lunch. Little Palm is a self contained high end resort ($800/night for a thatched room) in an idyllic setting with wonderful facilities and service. This is where the movie 'PT 109' was made. Reminds one of a south Pacific paradise.

After lunch we moved on a few more miles to Bahia Honda Key and the Bahia Honda State Park where we found a small basin and tied up at their seawall dock for the night. No power or internet. No restaurant. However we had pretty beaches (rated the best in the Keys) and we were close to the old Flagler RR bridge at Bahia Honda where we could see the original RR bridge from 1912 with the auto bridge built in 1936 on top of the RR bridge, all replaced by a new auto bridge nearby. The State Park closed at 6 pm so we had the place to ourselves.
The rangers say they are here often in the spring.
