No matter how you like to spend a day, Key West is the perfect place to get away from it all. Just watch out for iguanas.

Why go: Key West is the southernmost point of the continental US (read: It gets pretty hot). Visit in the fall or winter to avoid summer crowds and temperatures.
Learn: Key West was discovered in the 1500s, so it’s got a long, spooky history. Learn about its past with a ghost tour on a trolley — and say hello to Robert the Doll.
Listen: The streets are filled with live music. Head to Mallory Square nightly to enjoy music from buskers while watching the sun set over the Gulf of Mexico.
Explore: Hop on a boat to Dry Tortugas National Park, which is 99% water. This small, remote island is the perfect place to snorkel, scuba dive, or camp.
Vrbo: Charming cottage with a pool (~$338/night)*
