Florida Keys Holidays

Reference WW38676

The Florida Keys offer an unbeatable experience where you can lay back, unwind and take in the atmosphere all a world away from the big cities and theme parks. A cluster of islands that begins just south of Miami, the Florida Keys are connected by the Overseas Highway's 43 bridges over the Atlantic Ocean and the Gulf of Mexico.

The five regions of Key Largo, Islamorada, Marathon, Big Pine Key and Key West make the adventure-filled Florida Keys. Each part has a unique flavour and feeling, so whatever your dream holiday is, there's a Key to suit you. Explore historical museums, incredible restaurants, excellent fishing, water sports and even boutique shopping experiences during your visit and experience all the fun of the Keys.

Emerald-green lagoons, deep-blue seas, nodding palms, rustling pines and olive-green mangroves dominate the Key's Vista. Sharing this eco-paradise are white herons, roseate spoonbills, pelicans, seagulls, ospreys and countless underwater creatures. So if you're a nature lover, this is the spot for you.

The coastal waters of the entire 126-mile island chain, including its shallow water flats, mangrove islets and coral reefs are all waiting for you to explore. And with a fantastic range of accommodation from family-friendly resorts to luxury hotels, we can find the perfect break in the Keys for you.

Overview

On the tip of the Florida Keys, between the Atlantic Ocean and the Gulf of Mexico, lies the historic island city of Key West. Situated as it is at the gateway to the Caribbean and in close proximity to Cuba, this island supports a vibrant community and a long seafaring and naval tradition,

Key West, also known as the 'Conch Republic', has a distinct Caribbean flavour. The streets of its old quarter are lined with palms and pastel-painted, wooden colonial 'gingerbread' houses. It has been the favoured holiday haunt of greats like Ernest Hemingway, Tennessee Williams, and Harry Truman. This is because of its relaxed atmosphere, colourful neighbourhoods, legendary bars and restaurants, offshore fishing opportunities, and lively nightlife. The city also hosts innumerable pageants, parades and festivals, has an active theatre culture, and several heritage museums.

The streets of Key West are attractions by themselves; buskers providing impromptu entertainment for those at sidewalk cafés or browsing the many stores. Visitors on holiday here flock to 'The Bight', the old harbour, to arrange sea trips for fishing, snorkelling, or diving. Nightlife in Key West starts with sunset drinks on the Mallory Dock, before moving on to areas like Bahama Village, and along Duval Street.

Getting Around

Most visitors to Key West choose not to drive because of the great public transport options. Park-and-ride shuttles and buses are available and recommended. A day pass costs $4. Key West is very pedestrian friendly with bike and scooter rentals available, a great alternative to driving as parking in Key West can be difficult.

The Dade-Monroe Express bus runs from Key Marathon to Florida City, offering round trips on the hour and stopping on demand. Greyhound runs a Keys shuttle bus several times a day between Miami International Airport, stopping at all major points along the Keys.

Sight Seeing Overview

Explore one of the world's most scenic and intriguing archipelagos at Key West. The island is a perfect destination for families, as it combines the opportunity for dozens of water-based activities with some cultural and educational sightseeing.

Just beyond Key West are other islets along the Florida Keys chain, perfect for a day trip. Key Largo is known as one of the best places to go scuba-diving. Children can enjoy up-close interactions with marine life at the Dolphin Research Center and Turtle Hospital in Marathon.
