Things to do in Key West - United States of America

Located at the tip of the Florida Keys, a string of islands stretching from the southern coast of Florida into the Gulf of Mexico, Key West’s isolation has seen it develop as a tolerant haven for a variety of alternative lifestyles and subcultures. The heart of Key West lies along Duval Street, a gaudy neon-lit parade of dive bars, art-deco burlesque theaters and artists’ studios that has scarcely changed since the 1950s. Beyond the main drag, Key West’s top attractions are undoubtedly the Spanish colonial style Hemingway House, where the famed writer lived and worked throughout the 1930s, and the eccentric Mallory Square, where the town’s subcultures party all night long. While Key West attracts thousands of tourists per year, the island’s Bahamian Village remains a hidden gem with its unrestored colonial houses, ramshackle churches and traditional Cuban restaurants making for an unforgettable experience.
