"While most people know Key West as a favorite cruise ship stop or the longest drive within the Florida Keys archipelago (it’s the southernmost point of the continental United States, after all), it’s actually an island city connected to the mainland via the Overseas Highway. On this funky, eclectic, anything-goes island, you can get out on the water, snap photos of six-toed cats and free-roaming roosters, follow in the footsteps of famous artists and writers, and do whatever it takes to let your hair down." - Travel + Leisure Editors
