Places You Should Visit While in Key West



One of the most popular things that most tourists swear by is the snorkeling in Key West. Despite the fact that Key West is a small town, you can be sure to have some big fun here. The perfect weather will entice you to spend all your time outdoors taking in the tropical sun.

Explore the Old Town District on the Old Town Trolley Tours

The Old Town Trolley Tours is a great way to see the historic Old Town district of Key West. Enjoy your 'transportainment' as it is called on the trolley, where your experienced and entertaining guides will transport and entertain you with colorful anecdotes, little pieces of history, funny stories and intriguing facts about one of the most unique places in the world. You can hop on and off these comfy open-air trolleys as many times as you like. They make many stops all over the island and cover around 100 attractions.



See Key West on the Conch Train Tours

The guides on the Conch Train will take tourists through the tropical island paradise and entertain them with folklore, local legends, anecdotes, and historical stories of the area. You will visit the Ripley's Believe it or Not Museum, underwater explorer Mel Fisher's museum, The Hemingway House, Audubon House & Gardens, the Key West Lighthouse Museum, the Wreckers' Museum, Truman's "Little White House", Sloppy Joe's famous bar and the Southernmost Point among other things. This is a great way to see all the main attractions on the island at one shot.

Participate in the Sunset celebrations at Mallory Square



Key West is known to have one of the most beautiful sunsets in the world. Did you know that there is actually a daily festival in Key West that celebrates the sunset? Head to the iconic Mallory Square to watch the crazy procession of artists and street performers celebrate the beginning of one more legendary Key West night. Whether you'd like to get your fortune read, watch the fire dancers, or just get a good view of the setting sun - Mallory Square has it all.

Grab a drink at the Hog's Breath Saloon

Hog's Breath on Front Street has quite a reputation. This is probably because of the quirky events it hosts such as the Hair of the Hog Leather & Lace Contest and the Homemade Bikini Contest. Where else, except in Key West, will you be able to enjoy a Bloody Mary breakfast bright and early in the morning?



Their innovative tropical cocktails, conch fritters and fish nuggets are just some reasons to head here, apart from the ambience and music. Take a walk around the bar to take in the history of the place. The shop at the bar sells some quirky, unique stuff that makes for the perfect gift for friends and family back home
