14 Best Things to Do in Key West

"The Key West Lighthouse grants the public access to some of the best views in the area—that is, so long as they're ready to sweat. You'll have to climb 88 steps to reach the top of it; once you do, take in one of Key West’s famous sunsets with a bird’s eye view from the observation platform during one of their sunset experiences. It even comes with snacks and a bottle of wine or Prosecco for toasting the day’s end. If you're pressed for time, shimmy up the stairs and take a few Instagram shots from the top." - Nancy DePalma , Laura Ratliff
