Key West, Florida

Explore Key West, FloridaCaptain's TipYou'll have 8 hours hours to explore Key West, Florida, from 8:00 am to 4:00 pm - a solid full day ashore. That's enough for 2-3 attractions and a sit-down lunch without rushing. Tackle the most distant spot first, then work your way back toward the port. There is history here, from maritime stories to literary legends, but it never feels heavy.
Celebration Key, Bahamas
