The Florida Keys: Paradise Not So Far From Home by Paul Jorgensen
The Florida Keys are a tropical archipelago that consists of a whopping 1700 islands that lie off the coast of the Florida peninsula. They have fantastic tropical weather year round, but the summers can be awfully hot and humid so the pleasant warmness of November to May is probably a better option for travellers. The Keys feature many endemic animals native to this area, and a variety of beloved Key foods are served on the islands. These things, along with
the stunning tropical beauty and relaxation of the beach life, give visitors an exotic adventure while still feeling at home.
The most famous of the keys is Key West, which is the farthest of the islands from the Florida Peninsula. In fact, it lies just 145 kilometers (or 90 miles) away from Cuba. The island is a popular seaport for cruise ships, and also hosts the annual "Spring Break" festivities, as well as PrideFest, a week-long celebration put on by the gay and lesbian community. The sunsets from the pier on Key West are known to be amazing, and they can be enjoyed along the extensive beach promenade or from Mallory Square. Old Town Key West is a cute little tourist town, with its faux-looking colonial architecture. The most interesting spot for tourists is palm-fringed Duval Street, with its bars, cafes, restaurants, and shops. This is the happening place to be at night. The lush vegetation of the island also provides some provides for some relaxing escapes. Nancy Forester's Secret Garden, and the Key West Botanical Forest and Garden are worth a visit for their pleasant tropical greenery.
The Florida Keys can be accessed by the Overseas Highway, a highway that spans the ocean from the Florida peninsula through the archipelago, connecting all the islands with each other and to the mainland. The views from the two-lane highway are spectacular, and will possibly be the highlight of your trip. Alternatively, you can fly into one of the small airports in the keys, the most natural arrival point being Key West.
