6 days in Key West Itinerary

Located just 140 km (90 mi) from Cuba, Key West is an island only about 6.4 km (4 mi) long and 1.6 km (1 mi) wide.

Deepen your sense of the past at sights like Truman Little White House and Key West Cemetery. Let the collections at The Ernest Hemingway Home and Museum and Key West Lighthouse and Keeper's Quarters Museum capture your imagination. Change things up with a short trip to National Key Deer Refuge in Big Pine Key (about 44 minutes away). And it doesn't end there: identify plant and animal life at Key West Butterfly & Nature Conservatory, steep yourself in history at Curry Mansion, immerse yourself in nature at Fort Zachary Taylor, and cruise along The Overseas Highway.

In January, daily temperatures in Key West can reach 28°C, while at night they dip to 22°C. Wrap up your sightseeing on the 25th (Fri) to allow time to travel back home.
