QUARRY

Windley Key Fossil Reef Park -

See exposed crosscuts of a once living coral reef. Vestiges of Henry Flagler's early 1900s rock cutting operation associated with railroad construction. The quarry provided fill for railroad beds and embankments. Later the quarry supplied the popular ornamental building material called "keystone".

Thursday through Monday an hour long tour of 32 acre Windley Key is offered starting at 10 AM and 1 PM and costs $2.50 per person, children under 5 admitted free. Families with young children would be wise to take a self guided tour and pick and choose information that might be of interest to the kids from the park's wonderful Trail Guide available at the park store. Choice of 5 trails with numbered stations along the way. 305-664-25440
