From Key West – the southernmost point in the continental U.S. – guests are free to explore the expansiveness of the Florida Keys, from the bustling nightlife of Key West’s Mallory Square and Duval Street, to the laid back atmospheres of Marathon and Islamorada. The Dry Tortugas National Park to the west is also a popular bucket list item for many boaters.
