KEY WEST, Florida Keys — Free Key West Things To Do

Key West for FREE: The Top 6

Everyone thinks a vacation in glorious Key West has to break the bank. Sure, it can cost a ton if

you want it to. But if all your cash is going toward airfare and lodging, keep the faith: a frugal fiesta can be as much fun as one spent by the rich and famous.

1. Mallory Square Sunset Celebration

Every night about 2 hours before sunset, sun-kissed vacationers and townies gather at Mallory

Square Dock for a nightly arts festival. You can stroll along the dock and exhibit arts and crafts, street performers, psychics, and people watching. Then, watch the breathtaking sun descend over the Gulf of Mexico. Priceless.

2. Smather’s Beach

We all come to Key West for the sun and sand, right? Well, the beach is where it’s at. Grab your sunscreen, a hat, and towel, and head on over to Smather’s Beach. It’s a small beach, but there is always a good time to be had – from volley ball games and Frisbee, to just digging your toes in the sand and gazing out at the bright blue horizon.

3. Rollerblade along the Atlantic

Pack up your skates! Key West is a roller-blader’s paradise. The amazing oceanfront views are the perfect setting for jamming some tunes in your earphones and getting your skate on. And if you don’t have skates, you can rent some for super cheap at many of the bike rental locations.

4. Read a Book

Key West was home to one of the greatest writers of all-time, Ernest Hemingway. The island has a literary history and a great public library, so why not check out a book he wrote right here in Key West? It’s a perfect way to laze away an afternoon, and rest up for a night of partying.

5. Chill at the Pool

You paid for the room, so why not take advantage of your hotel digs and chill at the pool? Work on your tan, listen to some tunes in your ear buds, or catch up on your book (see number 4!). It’s the perfect way to spend a hot, sunny day on this glorious, magical little island. 

6. Stroll Duval Street

Duval Street is the main drag in town, and stretches from the Gulf of Mexico to the Atlantic Ocean. There are plenty of bars, pubs, eateries, and shops, but also lots of pretty bungaloes, mansions, and architecture to view.

Bring Sexy Back! Top 7 Ways to Bring Sexy Back…in Key West!

Top 7 Ways to Bring Sexy Back … in Key West!

 Key West Florida

So much has been said about the wild party vibe in Key West, but there are just as many ways to spend
tender time with your honey here. Our enchanted little island is the perfect place to propose, get married, renew your wedding vows, or just to escape the grind for a romantic getaway.

Perhaps you’re looking for a trip to renew the romance in your relationship? If you’d like to “bring the sexy back” that once drew you together, or if you are excited to explore a brand new relationship in a new place – Key West is the key to romance.

Here is our Top 7 list of romantic ways to get your sexy on in Key West:

1 His and Hers Massages

Waking up in Key West is waking up in paradise. Enjoy your morning with some breakfast in bed, and then take the pampering a step further with his and hers massages!  Prana Spa is an intimate little day spa located in Old Town, where licensed massage therapists will bring you to the deepest level of serenity. Enjoying a massage together is an especially sensual and romantic date that you will remember for years to come.

2 Rent a Scooter

Hop on a scooter with your sweetie at your back, and cruise around the island tandem style! There is nothing more romantic than heading to the southern-most tip of the island, enjoying the crystal blue vista (and possibly spotting Cuba in the distance!) and making out with your sweetheart under the brilliant blue sky. http://partyinkeywest.com/pages/keywestmopedrentals.html 

3 Champagne Picnic on the Beach

There are a ton of fantastic restaurants to check out in Key West, but we think one of the most romantic venues involves planting your toes in the sand and sharing a picnic lunch with your babe. Pick up a bottle of bubbly, some sandwiches, and a slice of key lime pie, and head on over to the Simonton Street Beach. Feed each other as you watch the sailboats, pelicans, and sparkling sea, and you will have shared an intimate and memorable lunch of a  lifetime.

4 Better than Sex

If it’s possible there is anything better than sex, this place could be it. This cheeky little dessert bar flaunts pure decadence. Indulge yourselves in this low-lit, elegant eatery – a positively sexy date alternative to cocktails at a bar (though you can have your cocktail AND your dessert here!). Your night is no doubt headed in an amorous direction if you’re sharing menu items like “Tongue Bath Truffle,” or “Between My Red Velvet Sheets” Cheesecake! http://www.betterthansexkeywest.com/

5 Sunset sail

It’s a cinematic and spectacular scene: you step aboard a gorgeous schooner, share a glass of champagne, and watch the golden sun sink into the pink horizon. The stars emerge in the night sky, and you both contemplate the amazing day you shared in magical Key West. Could there possibly be anything more romantic than that? http://partyinkeywest.com/pages/keywestsightseeing.html

6 Night Club and Drag Show

Sometimes romance is simply stepping out of the mundane and into the flamboyant! At Aqua night club, you get 2 for 1: First, enjoy the raucous and hilarious  (and possibly interactive!) show by the Aquanettes, the club’s amazing drag queen performers. Next, step onto the dance floor and enjoy your own performance as you and your sweetie dance the night away! http://www.aquakeywest.com/

7 Louie’s Backyard

It may sound like a ribs and beer joint, but it couldn’t be further from the truth. This 25-year-old Key West institution is located in a romantic, oceanside National Historic Landmark building. Make reservations at the upper deck, where you can enjoy wine tasting and fine dining, as well as a breathtaking panoramic view of the ocean. Chef Doug Shook considers the table his canvas, and the locally grown fruits, vegetables and seafood, and grass-fed meats his palette. If you can’t get enough of the experience, head down to the hip Afterdeck Bar for a martini and some celebrity watching.
