Dry Tortugas


Several hundred Cuban refugees recently made their way to the Dry Tortugas. The homemade "chugs" are cobbled together from whatever materials they can find, and are fitted with small car engines. These are gathered on the beach here for disposal and are awaiting transport back to Key West. The passengers onboard these chugs are the lucky ones. Many of them sink on the journey across the Gulf Stream.
