Self guided tour of the history of Key West wreckers. If you're into maritime history this is your place. The tower climb and view was the best part for me. Great view of KW.

Authentic building with a cool history. The Wrecker's of Key West is an interesting history of tough men who risked their lives to save others and salvage fortunes from ships washed up against the reefs off the keys.
Wreck Ashore! With these words, enter the world of 1856 Key West… the era of the wreckers. At the Key West Shipwreck Museum you will step back into time as you discover Key West’s unique maritime heritage and how it became the richest city in the United States.
