Visiting Key West, FL


Where else are Ernest Hemingway and Jimmy Buffett equally revered? Key West is a sunny, fun destination with enough sights to keep you busy when you're not snorkeling, parasailing or catching some rays. The Hemingway house is a must-see, and anyone interested in military history will enjoy poking around the ruins of Fort Zachary Taylor. If you'd prefer to be out on the water, deep-sea fishing excursions and diving trips are available from many companies around town.
Best fare found from Houston to Key West: $364
