Cruise Miami To Key West

The Overseas Highway is a classic Americana experience. You will easily come across more than one kitschy souvenir shop selling seashell necklaces. Then there are the burger stands that offer you the classic combination of shakes, fries and burgers. At the same time, there is an equally mesmerizing world below the bridge that is filled with coral reefs and fishes of all colors of the rainbow. The entire trip will take around 3 hours to complete as long as the traffic conditions are ideal and you don't make any stops. However, you should certainly make a few stops to enjoy the different Keys between Miami Key West that lie connected by the Overseas Highway. Things have been made easier for you as the mile markers on the highway also cite the major attractions nearby. Here are some of the places you should stop by on your way to Key West. Key Largo.Key Largo has stylized itself as the diving capital of the world. On reaching the place, you will understand why that title is a rather apt one. Key Largo is home to a massive coral reef located inside the John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park. The park also contains a beach where you can practice snorkeling before you head over to the reef. You can also visit the Spiegel Grove which is a retired Navy ship that was sunk to serve as an artificial reef. The display of natural beauty underwater at Key Largo is fascinating. You are certain to meet angelfish and trumpetfish. If you are interested in diving or snorkeling, you should certainly make a stop at Key Largo. Pennekamp

These two bars may not seem much but they have an historic connection to Ernest Hemingway. Sloppy Joe's Bar was Hemingway's favorite spot for a drink or two. However, the bar is currently located at some distance from its original location. At the original location, you will find Captain Tony's Saloon. Southernmost Point
