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.

Boot Key Harbor est située au SW de la Floride, dans le Parc des Everglades, à l'entrée de Little Shark River.
Le chenal est balisé, mais le balisage n'est pas illuminé.
Le mouillage, par 2 m minimum, dans la baie est en général bon quand la baie est calme.
Attention la baie est fréquentée par des alligators, il n'est donc pas conseillé d'y nager! De plus la baie est pleine de moustiques, penser à prendre des répulsifs.
