Wisteria Island Key WestWisteria Island and the sailing schooner Appledore as seen from Sunset Pier in Key West
The sailing schooner Appledore on an evening sunset cruise is passing between us and Wisteria Island. When we enjoy the Key West sunset from a perch on Sunset Pier we are able to watch a virtual parade of boats heading out of Key West Bight Marina on sunset cruises.

Wisteria Island was originally created as dredge spoil from Key West harbor. It is located a short distance off the northern tip of Key West. Over the years vegetation has sprouted on the old dredge spoil. The trees on the island reminded some of Christmas Trees and the name Christmas Tree Island is what Wisteria Island is referred to by most natives in Key West.

Wisteria Island is the island on the right which is closest to us as we cruised by on the Party Cat Sunset Cruise one evening in February of 2012. The boats you see in this picture are liveaboards. Wisteria Island as seen from the Party Cat Sunset Cruise out of Key West
The boats you see off the northern tip of Wisteria Island are liveaboards for individuals that work in Key West. Their boats (homes) are more or less permanently moored where you see them. The inhabitants of these liveaboards use dinghy's to get back and forth between their home and Key West.
