People began visiting the Everglades for pleasure during the late 1800s.
Most traveled on small sailboats to coastal settlements, such as Coconut
Grove and Chokoloskee. Steamboats and other, smaller boats carried sightseers
up canals and "improved" waterways. As roads were built and
improved, more people ventured inland.
