Duval Street buzzes with lively bars and music venues while Mallory Square hosts unforgettable sunset celebrations with fire jugglers and street performers. The neighborhood serves up everything from fresh grouper and conch fritters to key lime pie at spots ranging from waterfront fine dining to casual shacks. Most travelers explore the charming brick streets on foot or by renting bikes, with trolleys looping frequently through the walkable historic grid.

Truman Little White House where tropical gardens frame the preserved presidential retreat. Stroll past gleaming naval buildings on manicured grounds or explore maritime treasures at the Mel Fisher Museum. The quiet, tree-lined streets feel worlds away from Duval Street's energy. Elegant vacation rentals occupy restored naval quarters with premium amenities and tropical courtyards. Getting around is best done on foot or by bike through the gated community's uncrowded pathways. When hunger strikes, a short walk takes you to nearby Old Town's restaurants and shops.

Learn more about Key West

Hemingway's ghost still haunts the bars where he once drank, while roosters strut through streets with more confidence than tourists. At Mallory Square, sunset becomes theater as fire-jugglers and troubadours compete for attention. The Southernmost Point buoy draws selfie-seekers, though locals know the actual southernmost spot lies elsewhere. Tour the author's six-toed-cat-filled home before cooling off with key lime pie that sparks debates about meringue versus whipped cream. Snorkel at Fort Zachary Taylor, then wander Duval Street where T-shirt shops give way to sophisticated galleries. The Truman Little White House reveals presidential history, while the nightly parade of characters proves that in Key West, being normal is the only real sin.
