Key West


As the southernmost point in the U.S., Key West’s separation from the mainland fosters a very laid-back atmosphere. Enjoy the festivities, but be sure to take in Key West’s quirky history (Harry Truman and Ernest Hemingway have homes here), unique culture (nightly sunset celebrations) and unparalleled water activities (diving, snorkeling and swimming with dolphins).

Description
As the southernmost point in the United States, Key West attracts visitors looking for an escape from the ordinary. Most people spend the day lounging on the beach and relaxing. Nature lovers and divers might enjoy a trip to Dry Tortugas Islands, located about 70 miles west of Key West (accessible by ferry or chartered plane). Sunsets are an event in themselves, signifying the end of the day and the start of the nightlife.
