Key West, Florida’s Southernmost point, is so much like a laid-back Caribbean Island. In this island paradise rich in wildlife and history, each hour spent here is a constant celebration. What used to shelter shipwrecks and pirates is now hosting tourists attracted to its beautiful sandy beaches. Enjoy music and entertainment from artists and musicians as they serenade the sun as it sets over the horizon. Stroll over to Duval Street and dine in the rows of bars and restaurants. The 10-day festival of Fantasy Fest that started in 1979 set the standards for today’s hardcore party scene. Explore the historical sites and museums around town and learn more about their fascinating maritime culture. Looking for luxurious accommodation, check out our list of the best beach house rentals in Key West, Florida.
