The Florida Keys are like a string of pearls trailing off the Florida mainland. They’re all beautiful, but each pearl has its own personality.

Key West is what happens when you combine all the fun of New Orleans with the tropical vibe of the Caribbean. It’s got everything from ritzy, all-inclusive resorts to famous six-toed cats.Key Largo is one and the rest of the Florida Keys are known for being one of the top snorkeling and scuba diving destinations in the world.

Then there are the beaches. Although many of the Keys beaches are rocky or muddy, there are a few gems if you know where to look.

And of course, there’s the food. From uber-fresh seafood to the classic key lime pie, the Florida Keys have your taste buds covered.
