Key West hangs - or, more often, swings - like a dazzling, off-beat and gaudy pendant at the southernmost point of the continental U.S. But its semi-detachment is more than geographic; it's part of the laissez-faire that - along with the subtropical climate and palm-shaded streets - has attracted artists, musicians, writers and a thriving gay community.

While the main drag, Duval Street, is overridden with chain stores, there's so much more to this town. It's practically impossible not to fall in love with the tropical nights, Bahamian architecture and warm people.

Suggested Itineraries in Key West

Any day is a good day for a festival as far as Key Westerners are concerned. By far the most bizarre is the Hemingway Days Festival in July, when 150-plus 'Papa' look-alikes converge on Sloppy Joe's Bar.

Other notable festivals include: PrideFest, a huge June celebration of the city's almost 30% gay population; October's huge 10-day Fantasy Fest, a cross between Carnivale and Halloween but with much more nudity; and last but not least, the Conch Republic Independence Day in April/May, which commemorates the 'secession' of the Keys from the USA.
