Boot Key Harbor is located into the everglades, in Florida SW, outside Little Shark River. The entry is northwest of unlighted daybeacon #4 . Generally it's a good mooring, with minimum 5,5 feet, when the bay is calm. Do not swim in the bay because of Alligators. Many mosquitos are in the bay and light colors of clothing are suggested to minimize the attraction to mosquitoes.
