The Department of the Interior turned Fort Zachary Taylor over to the state of Florida in 1976 and in 1985 the Fort Zachary Taylor Historic State Park opened. It is the southernmost state park in the continental United States.
Before visiting, you should go to this site: floridastateparks.org/parks-and-trails/fort-zachary-taylor-historic-state-park for updates on operations and information about events, including weekly Civil War reenactments at the site.
And at fortzacharytaylor.com/beach, you'll discover that the 54-acre park also boasts "Key West's best beach" for swimming, snorkeling, fishing, and picnicking. Or, simply sit back and enjoy one of Key West's fabulous sunsets that it is so famous for.
