Key West

Key West: a key to life
Key West is the southernmost point in the continental US and is actually closer to Havana, Cuba than Miami. This small island has a rich and varied history. Key West has an independent and free-spirit as demonstrated in its 1982 symbolic secession from the Union, when it dubbed itself as the Conch Republic. This unique spirit is perhaps why so many artists and writers have made Key West their home at various times including Ernest Hemingway, Tennessee Williams, and Robert Frost.

At one point during the late 1800s, Key West was the wealthiest city, per capita, in the nation. Today it is a laid-back community with an eclectic mix of residents that has more of a Caribbean atmosphere than that of an American city.

Key West continues the theme of the other keys for being a fantastic water sports playground, but it is perhaps better known for its eccentricity, night life, lovely Key West architecture, and historical landmarks.

Key West is reputed to have the most gorgeous sunsets and the best place to see them is at Mallory Square Dock overlooking Key West harbor. The event is celebrated with performances from many street entertainers including mimes, fire jugglers, sword sallower, and acrobats.
