A path to paradise in Key West, Florida. |
The school year’s wrapping up, and everyone’s getting into
vacation mode. Let’s all to “go down to
Kokomo” with a virtual trip to Key West, Florida. Key West is the southernmost city in the
Continental U.S., so you know it has a gorgeous, tropical climate. On top of the weather, Key West has a lot to
offer: Caribbean inspired food (and cocktails), rich music, wonderful galleries
and shops, diving, boating, snorkeling, fishing… the list goes on. But, of course, our sights are set on the
beach! Though Key West isn’t known as a
beach destination, it does have some lovely options to whet your beach
whistle.
Smather’s Beach is a nice place to start: it’s two miles
long, with beach chair rentals, food, drinks and all the beach activities you
could hope for. The water here is calm,
and just right for swimmers and snorkelers.
Fort Zachary Taylor State Park mixes a history lesson with a beach
day. Explore the Civil War era fort,
then kick back on the beach and enjoy the popular views. Higgs Beach is known for having a mellower
vibe, and offers a pier, a playground and restaurants nearby.
