Key West: A Tropical Island Paradise
The drive along the Overseas Highway to Key West – a journey of some 113 miles, much of it on spectacular stretches of bridges – is definitely worth the 3.5 hours it takes, and only makes the time spent in the final destination all the more memorable. There are of course a variety of other great ways to get from Miami to Key West, including by boat or by plane, or as part of an organized tour of this popular destination.
Start your Key West adventure by exploring the quirky delights of Duval Street and grab a bite at one of the many restaurants and food shacks along this famous stretch of road. Other fun things to do in Key West include visiting Ernest Hemingway's former home (now a great museum), the Key West Aquarium, the excellent Key West Butterfly and Nature Conservatory, or possibly even spending time at one of the many great beaches close by. Best of all, it's possible to catch each of these top points of interest on foot, with the added benefit that you'll find yourself exploring the colorful Caribbean-inspired architecture that dominates Key West.
