About Key West
Key West is the southernmost city in the continental United States, a small Florida Keys island of wooden conch houses, coral reefs and sunset crowds.
Key West lies at the end of the Overseas Highway, the road that hops from island to island for about 180 kilometres from the mainland, and is about 150 kilometres from Cuba. The old town is a grid of narrow streets lined with wooden conch houses trimmed with white fretwork and shaded by palms. Free-roaming chickens wander the pavements.
Top-ranked sights in Key West: Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary, Mallory Square, Fort Zachary Taylor.
