Key West: a small island with big potential. The one-time home of Hemingway, the southernmost point in the United States - not to mention world-renown snorkeling, scuba-diving, offshore fishing, white sand beaches, crystal clear water, a raging and eccentric nightlife, and only a quick jaunt down from Miami - is there any reason not to visit?

Easily accessible from its nearby neighbor to the north, you can experience what this South Florida gem has to offer by a relaxing day tour where you’ll stop to have breakfast (not included in tour-price) before enjoying a scenic drive across 42 bridges and 32 islands to Key West. Here the Caribbean atmosphere, street artists, outdoor cafes and restaurants are just waiting to enchant you. Once you arrive, you’ll have the leisure to explore the sights of Key West at your own pace (on vacation, one shouldn’t be rushed). Consider visiting the southern-most point in the continental US, Hemingway's house, or Mallory Square - this open-air marketplace and entertainment complex is a great place to start or end your visit to Key West.

If tramping around on land doesn’t excite you and you’d prefer to spend your time in the ocean instead, consider whisking off to Key West and take part in some excellent snorkeling, an adventure the whole family can enjoy. Aboard a 30 foot (9 meter) catamaran, you’ll enjoy light refreshment and professional snorkeling instruction, before heading off in to the only live coral reef in the United States, and the third largest reef in the world. On your adventure you’ll see myriad colorful fish, vibrant coral, and that’s just from the boat.

Whatever your pleasure, this tiny island is sure to be able to enchant you.

Doing what: Key West Day Trip

First things first, this is a long bus ride. Close to 4 hours. However the ride is beautiful and 6 hours in Key West was worth it. We did have one stop on the way for breakfast and bathrooms. Once in Key West, you get 6 hours to do whatever you want. My husband and I went to the shipwreck museum, the aquarium (highly recommend!), had lunch at Two Friends (conch fritters, mahi mahi and frozen drinks), walked along the wharf and had Key Lime Pie at the Key Lime Pie Co. Key West is a fun, quirky walkable place. Chickens run across the road, people are on bikes and scooters, etc...
