Laid Back In Key West

The Florida Keys, a place many people have been to or dream of going and I can definitely see why. After landing in Fort Lauderdale, we made the four hour drive (yes, in a convertible) to the Southernmost Point of the Continental United States; Key West. We checked into The Gates Hotel, a contemporary hotel that features a rum bar, amazing pool, and is pet friendly! Many people talk about Duval Street and I enjoyed experiencing it, but I would much rather be adventuring at the Dry Tortuga's or hanging out with the locals in the Old Historic Seaport area. Regardless of your desires, Key West is a fun place to experience! I share my top places to visit here below!

Here are the Must-See and Do's while in Key West!🌞

1. Southernmost Point (Don't you want to say you visited the Southernmost Point of the USA?)

2. Pan Am Bar (Pan Am's First Office and where the first ticket to Havana was sold)

3. Ernest Hemingway House (Hello! Six-toed cats + History)

4. Fort Zachary Taylor State Park (Great Beach and Good Snorkeling)

5. Old Historic Seaport (Fresh Conch and Harbor Views)

6. Dry Tortuga National Park (Need I say more? The snorkeling here is insane, the water is warm, and you can take a sea-plane to get here which gives unbelievable aerial views)

7. Cuban Coffee Queen (Great coffee and a good breakfast) + Wicked Lick (nitrogen ice cream) + A&B Lobster House (Well worth the cost)
