KEY WEST

Key West, Key West!!! It is definitely one of the best places in the world to go snorkeling or diving. West Sambo Reef is the third largest coral reef in the world, just seven miles off the coast! Key West Snorkeling Tours has a lot to offer like one of the best snorkeling tours I've ever been on, diving tours, and even dolphin tours. Just visit http://www.keywestsnorkelingtours.com/

There is a lot of history to see in Key West like the three civil war forts. Fort Zachary Taylor was built in the 1800's and was Presidents Truman's beach house for 11 winter seasons. Old Town has some nice places to visit like the Key West Museum of Art & History. Fantasy Fest started in the 1800's and is Florida's Mardi Gras. With over one hundred thousand people attending this 10 day carnival its just off the chain including, a parade, costume competitions, body painting, costume parties, lots of drinking. Oh yea Key West has the most bars and clubs per capita in the U.S. so it might not be the ideal place to spend a family vacay. It also has the most church's per capita go figure.

Now when it comes to food Key West has sea food covered with restaurants like Blue Haven. Almost 5 stare out of over seven hundred reviews. Other places like the Roof Top Cafe, Michael's, and with Key West being closer to Cuba than Miami is there are some good Cuban restaurants there but El Siboney Restaurant is definitely the best in Key West. I would try and save some room for dessert at Better Than Sex Dessert's. If your trying to impress a lady this is the spot but if our trying to be cheap with the its not. Its all candle lit and sexy but it is expensive.

5 star Hotels are not easy to find on islands this small but Key West has a couple starting with Casa Marina Resort which has the largest private beach on the island and is a beauty in and out. You might want to check their website out so you can see what they have to offer at http://www.waldorfastoria.com/search/property-details.cfm?intPropertyId=3 . Another place that is all around freakin amazing is Ocean Key Resort and Spa, check them out at http://www.luxurylink.com/luxury-hotels/ocean-key-resort-and-spa?clid=634 .

That's all for Key West its a great place for diving or dinning, the beaches are not that appealing but they have some great things to offer.  Not the best spot for kids
