Not a fan of the cold? Prefer to chase summer year-round like me? Consider Key West as a winter vacation destination in 2024 than!

Key West is much more than just an endless Happy Hour where it’s always “5 o’clock somewhere”! There’s a ton of rich history, beautiful nature, and even a couple of National Parks! This Key West Winter Vacation Guide will give you a full list of best things to see and do, as well as how to plan your logistics!

Covid Disclaimer: If you choose to travel, please do so responsibly and safely. The Florida Keys currently has a mandatory mask rule in place, and encourages social distancing and frequent hand washing.

How to Get to Key West

A post shared by The Florida Keys & Key West (@thefloridakeys) on

The Florida Keys have over 800 keys stretching over 180 miles! Key West is the most populated key, and also furthest south key, which means it takes quite a while to reach it.

Not to worry though, it’s a beautiful drive across over 40 bridges! You’ll definitely want to leave as early as possible in the morning to avoid traffic, and plan a couple rest stops!

Getting there is easy because it’s a straight shot from South Florida’s mainland. If you’re already in Florida, just keep driving south on I-95 or the Turnpike, and it will eventually turn into the road to Key West.

If you’re flying in from a farther location, you can actually fly straight into Key West International Airport! Or if it’s cheaper, you can fly into Miami International, rent a car, and drive about 4-5 hours to get there.

Where to Stay

key west hotels

Most of the hotels are located in the Historic District. As you can probably guess, that’s where pretty much everything is going on, so it’s the perfect place to stay! Hotels book up very quickly though, so try to grab something as soon as you can!

If you want something a little quieter and cheaper, you could consider staying in New Town or near the airport. However, since there’s a good chance you’ll be drinking, and cabs are expensive, you might as well pay extra to stay in the Historic District!

Best Things to See and Do in Key West

From activities to photo spots, here are all of the best things to see and do in Key West!

Duval Street

Arguably the most famous street in The Keys and notorious for it’s many bars and pubs! When you go to Key West, you will definitely be spending a lot of time on Duval Street!

Meander into smaller lesser-known venues, or check out one of the most famous ones, like Sloppy Joe’s! OR! You can even do a Pub Crawl tour, sometimes with ghosts involved!

Southernmost Point Marker

In case it’s not obvious, Key West is the southernmost city in the U.S.! It’s actually so far south, that it’s closer to Cuba than it is to Miami! To commemorate this feat, there is a massive Southernmost Point marker at the very tip of the island that is a must for photos!

Hemmingway House

Ernest Hemmingway was a huge fan of Cuba, and thus Key West as well! Therefore it’s no surprise that he had a house there, which you can visit today as a museum! It’s said that the house is also home to several cats!

Sunset Sail

Since you are at the southernmost tip of Florida, you have the advantage of seeing both the sunrise, and the sunset! And nothing is more beautiful than a sunset over tropical waters! Take a sunset sail cruise one of your nights on the gorgeous island, and prepare yourself, because most of them are all-you-can-drink!

Snorkel

In the morning or afternoon, either head to the beach or book a boat tour to one of the many coral reefs around the island!

There are tons of natural coral reefs, and also artificial ones created by the many sunken ships!

Ghost Tour

Did you know that Key West is known to be haunted? Whether it’s because of the many shipwrecks right off the coast, or the indigenous Indians that were driven out by Spaniards, you’ll definitely feel spooked if you take a Ghost Tour!

One is also a “Ghost Tour and Pub Crawl” and will take you to the most eerie bars in Old Town, located in two haunted mansions, and a repurposed morgue. Eek!

Eat Key Lime Pie

You can’t go to Keys without trying Key Lime Pie! And Ohhhhh how delicious it is! You can find it at almost any restaurant or you can seek out the places with the best reviews!

There’s Key West Key Lime Pie Co., Kermit’s Key West Key Lime Shoppe (with vegan pies!), and Key Lime Bakery!

Dry Tortugas National Park

Did you know that there is a National Park off the coast of Key West? It’s called Dry Torugas National Park, and it’s about 67 miles south, so would require an entire day to see it.

Here is where the U.S. benefited from a natural defense barrier against smugglers, pirates, and invaders. In fact, it is said that at least one ship would wreck here per week due to the coral reefs!

Now of course it is an ideal place to snorkel and scuba dive, and definitely worth the adventure if you have time!

If you found this free guide helpful, please help me by sharing it on social media or Pinterest!!

Key West is the ultimate winter vacation destination in 2020! It's warm, tropical, laid back, and A LOT of fun! In Key West, Florida, you can find everything from ghost tour bar crawls, to a sunken ship island National Park! Here's how to plan your winter vacation in the Keys! #keywest #wintervacation #floridakeys #USroadtrip

  • Samarkand the second time was even more magical! Since I went here last year, they’ve now started doing these “flying dress” photoshoots at Registan Square for around $67, which was definitely worth it! Go super early (6:30-8) to avoid anyone in your photos AND to avoid annoying other travelers trying to take photos 😬 We also got a few group pics with the Travel Tribe! It’s definitely been extremely fun being here a second time with them!! Photography company tagged as a collaborator!

  • Kyrgyzstan is rising in popularity as a unique travel destination and its easy to see why! From the beautiful nature to the well preserved culture, plus being extremely safe, it really makes it an ideal destination, but definitely expect some logistical hurdles 😁 Horseback riding in Chon Kemin and visiting Ala Archa National Park are a must! That's also where we learned about the Golden Eagles, a centuries old tradition practiced by their nomad culture that is still done today, mostly to continue keeping the traditions alive and teaching visitors about it. Do you want to visit Kyrgyzstan? ------ I'm currently hosting a custom created "luxe-adventure" through the 5 Stans of Central Asia with my group adventure community @mylifesatraveltribe!

  • I was one of the last foreigners permitted in Virunga National Park in D.R. Congo before it was closed due to many armed and dangerous groups occupying it. That experience was one of the most memorable ones in my life, and part of why I’ll always say DRC is one of my favorite destinations I’ve been to (4 times). But DRC is also one of the most corrupt countries, with some of the most horrific ongoing atrocities committed on the local Congolese people, the environment, and the animals by greedy, heartless humans. Deforestation, illegal mining for minerals used to make your electronics, and destruction (plus human abuse) are a part of why the animals there suffer. Poaching for bushmeat and to steal baby primates to sell as pets is another. If you’ve ever seen a primate, especially chimpanzees, kept as a personal pet or on display, its parents were likely killed so it could be kidnapped. UAE and Gulf countries, Thailand, China, Eastern EU countries, and even people in the USA are all guilty of this. That’s why one of the organizations I’ve become an ambassador for in D.R.Congo is @lwiro_primates . Lwiro Primates take in injured, abandoned, and smuggled primates, and they rehabilitate and care for them, even during a time when their own homeland is a very scary please. So I am kindly asking today on World Giving Day for Apes, to send them a donation, or at least share their story or the info in this post. Anything helps, nothing does not. And if you ever see a chimp as a pet, please ask the owner if they’re aware that its parents were likely killed just for it to be kidnapped and forced to be a pet. 😡 The link to the fundraiser is on Lwiro’s page and I’ll share on my Stories! I’ve brought about 100 travelers to D.R.Congo, and they all can attest to what a beautiful and unique place it is. I pray and dream for the day that we can safely return there and bring tourism back.

  • The highlight reel of Skardu, Pakistan! If you'd like the behind the scenes, see my previous posts or the story highlight! But also, yes, it really is this beautiful! Do you like pretty highlight reels or do you prefer the struggle clips? Asking for a friend...who has a lot of both... 😬
  • The Photo VS the Moment in Skardu, Pakistan (wait for the videos after the photo) for anyone who thinks getting photos is easy, behold, freezing water, climbing on rocks, and magical geese who apparently want to be featured in the pics.! (Comment "Skardu" and ill DM you my full travel guide plus how to get notifications for the group trip next year!) What's the wildest thing you've done for a photo?? Thank you Destination Pakistan for the offer to work together and for helping get this footage so I didn't have to always use my tripod or selfie stick!
  • Just confirming that Haveli restaurant has the best rooftop view in Lahore! Make a reservation because it's always busy and ask to sit closest to the mosque! The entire building of Haveli is beautiful and fascinating! A former mansion that's ornately decorated, and located in an area that was formerly infamous for..brothels! Now, largely thanks to tourism demand, this area of Lahore is a lot cleaner and safer than it used to be, and it offers some of the most spectacular sites to see, both from above and below! What would you rate this view from 1 to 10??
  • Made it to Skardu without any flight issues! Flights to and from the mountain region of Pakistan have a pretty high rate of cancellation due to unpredictable weather... And speaking of unpredictable weather, the reports said it would be really cold, but it was warm, so i "had to" go shopping for shalwar kameez as soon as I arrived 😍 Then it was off to the Shangri La Lake for some pink tea before making the drive to Shigar cold desert for a sunset horseback riding session, before settling into a beautiful riverfront boutique resort! Everyone says you have to go to the northern mountains of Pakistan, and now I see why! This place is magical and I only have a few days to explore! PS did you know that this region has the highest number of world's tallest mountain peaks, it has has both deserts and lakes at extremely high altitudes, and also the largest glaciers in the world aside from the polar regions?? More coming soon! Do you want to visit Skardu??

Just confirming that Haveli restaurant has the best rooftop view in Lahore! Make a reservation because it's always busy and ask to sit closest to the mosque! The entire building of Haveli is beautiful and fascinating! A former mansion that's ornately decorated, and located in an area that was formerly infamous for..brothels! Now, largely thanks to tourism demand, this area of Lahore is a lot cleaner and safer than it used to be, and it offers some of the most spectacular sites to see, both from above and below! What would you rate this view from 1 to 10??

Made it to Skardu without any flight issues! Flights to and from the mountain region of Pakistan have a pretty high rate of cancellation due to unpredictable weather... And speaking of unpredictable weather, the reports said it would be really cold, but it was warm, so i "had to" go shopping for shalwar kameez as soon as I arrived 😍 Then it was off to the Shangri La Lake for some pink tea before making the drive to Shigar cold desert for a sunset horseback riding session, before settling into a beautiful riverfront boutique resort! Everyone says you have to go to the northern mountains of Pakistan, and now I see why! This place is magical and I only have a few days to explore! PS did you know that this region has the highest number of world's tallest mountain peaks, it has has both deserts and lakes at extremely high altitudes, and also the largest glaciers in the world aside from the polar regions?? More coming soon! Do you want to visit Skardu??
