Key West: A Southernmost Time Capsule

At the tip of the Florida Keys, Key West has a personality all its own—laid-back, artistic, and rich with history. The island is known for stories of pirates, shipwrecks, literary legends, and colorful characters.

Once one of the wealthiest cities in America thanks to maritime trade and the wrecking industry, Key West still offers plenty of reminders of its fascinating past, including the Ernest Hemingway Home & Museum, Harry S. Truman's Little White House, and Fort Zachary Taylor Historic State Park.
