There is so much to see
and do. While you might
like some time to just
relax or go shopping,
there are also a wide
range of activities that would require reservations in advance such
as flats boat fishing, deep sea fishing, scuba or snorkeling.

do not require advance

the sights and sounds of Key West and ultimately be your tour guide
after you become a certified celebrant. There is so much to see and do
on the island of Key West and you won’t need a rental car!
When You Arrive
The Key West Airport is 10 minutes from the Pier House, which is
on the water and arguably the most convenient resort in Key West. A
rental car is not necessary as everything is within walking distance!
Truman White House, the Butterfly
Sanctuary or the aquarium. There is
also a conch train tour which includes
all the best sights and is a great way
to learn about the island.

rent a wave runner, go
shopping or enjoy the historic
and cultural attractions.
