And if you don't have a car, just call the pink taxi. It will take you anywhere for a buck.

Salute' is located on a beach on the south side of the island. Excellent Italian food! Their bar comes in handy during an afternoon on the beach, but please don't take glass onto the sand.

Snorkeling

My son doen't swim well, But he been out 5 or more times. In Fla. they make you wear a life vest. You can go out from Key West, Key Largo and I sure there are more. The trip from Key West was one of the best

Oh what a great gift!! You are probably already gone by now......but just in case!

Definitely check out No Name Pub on No Name Key.....and on your way be sure to keep your eye out for the infamous tiny Key Deer.....they're sooo cute!

Of course you have to do the "Duval Crawl" and in doing this you won't miss all the cool places like Sloppy Joes, Cptn. Tony's, Hog's Breath, etc........You could also participate in the turtle races at the Turtle Kraals in the Lands End village! If you have a GPC, you should check out

I wish I would have seen this before I ventured down there in Jan.

Well, there will definitely be plenty to keep you preoccupied....oh yeah, don't forget to also check out the southern most point of the U.S.......90 miles phrom Cuba!

You two Enjoy, Enjoy, Enjoy you lucky gal!!!

Congrats and Cheers!! ~

Where should I start? The Green Parrot is fabulous; try the green beans-no kidding! Mangia Mangia is a great mix of Italian-Carribbean food. Finnigans Wake is a great Irish Pub in Key West. Try the seafood pizza. Blue Heaven for breakfast. I'm making myself hungry! Go to Mallory Square and soak up the atmosphere-it's worth fighting the crowds. Walk thru the cemetary for some laughs! Just relax and have a great time!!!
