Key
West Why do millions of tourists vacation every year
on the tropical island of Key West in the Florida Keys? Key West is as
far south as you can get and still stay safely in the United States mainland. Some
visitors are attracted by the laid-back, come-as-you-are atmosphere.
Other visitors are intrigued by the city's history of pirate tales and
buried treasures. History can be found everywhere on the island, and plenty
of museums line the narrow streets. Some people visit to find inspiration
like author Ernest Hemingway and President Harry Truman did years ago.
Others seek love and companionship in Key West's year-round tropical weather.
And surrounded by water, more daring types come to Key West to snorkel,
fish, and dive on the coral reef just a few miles offshore.
Although Key West
has been called America's only "Caribbean Island" it's charm
and character are one-of-a-kind! You can reach this island by car, bus,
plane or boat! It's connected to the mainland U.S. by over forty bridges!

vacationing in the Florida Keys? Find

will have the fishing trip of a lifetime enjoying both inshore and offshore
