Description
The Barnacle was built in 1891 as the home of Ralph Monroe, one of the pioneers who settled in the area in the 1890's. Ralph was a seaman, civic activist, naturalist, and photographer who loved nature. One of the trails in Barnacle State Historic Site passes through a tropical hardwood hammock, reminiscent of the once vast Miami Hammock.
