A one-day road trip to Key West is a classic Florida Keys adventure. Start early from Key Largo, Tavernier, or Islamorada so you can enjoy the drive, make a few scenic stops, and still have time in Old Town.

Morning Drive

Follow the Overseas Highway south through Marathon and over the Seven Mile Bridge. Consider a quick stop at Bahia Honda or Big Pine Key if your timing allows.

Key West Highlights

Walk Duval Street, visit the Southernmost Point, tour a historic home, wander the harbor, and plan dinner or sunset before heading back. Keep the itinerary loose so the day still feels like vacation.

It is a full day, but the drive itself is part of the reward.
