Getting Here and Getting Around

 

By Car

Connect to U.S. 1 south in Florida City an discover why it’s called the Overseas Highway. Travelling along this thin sliver of concrete that separates the Gulf of Mexico from the Atlantic Ocean is akin to a 90 mile sale. Count Down the mile markers to Key West, where your adventure begins. We are three hours from Miami, four hours from Fort Lauderdale, and a world away from average.

By Air

Key West International Airport, a 10 minute drive from the downtown area, welcomes airlines such as U.S. Airways, Continental, Delta and American Eagle. Most flights either connect through larger cities including Miami, Fort Lauderdale, Tampa, Orlando and Atlanta. Car rentals, taxis, and bus service are available at the airport. Select resorts provide guest shuttles. See the Visitor Services section on page 59 for transportation information.

And Everything Else

Once you arrive, leave the car keys behind. The two-by-four mile island is ideal for bikes, scooters and your own two feet. Rental shop owners supply bicycles equipped with necessary lights and locks, and scooter agents make sure that all the drivers are comfortable before sending them off. To find your way around by foot, contact the Chamber at 1-800-LAST-KEY to receive a complimentary street map before you arrive or just ask a local-they love to help.
