Key West Boat Tours

Harry Truman isn't the only famous person to have stayed at Key West. The American literary genius Ernest Hemingway also lived and worked at Key West. The Spanish Colonial house he brought in 1931 still stands. He lived in the home till 1940. The house serves as a museum to his life and works now. Hemingway wrote some of his most famous novels here such as "For Whom the Bell Tolls" and "A Farewell to Arms". The home also contains a tropical garden that Hemingway maintained. There is also a saltwater pool which Hemingway claimed that nearly pushed him into bankruptcy. His so-called 'last penny' can still be seen pressed into the pool's concrete. Hemingway was also known for his housecat called Snow White which had six toes. He raised that cat lovingly. The descendants of those housecats can still be found on the property.

Even if you are not planning to visit one of the two cities, you should take the time out to witness the magnificent engineering marvel of the Overseas Highway. The ride is incredibly beautiful and there are many scenes to enjoy during the trip. The bridge is just as historical as it is beautiful. Originally, there was a railroad that connected the Keys instead of a highway. The Overseas Railroad was built in 1929 but was destroyed by a hurricane in 1935. Instead of rebuilding the railroad, it was decided to build a highway. Parts of the ancient railroad are still visible from the highway and the ruins are worth a visit. As the highway connects the Florida Keys together, you can easily take a detour and visit each of them in turn. They are worth the visit as each Key has something different to offer. Wildlife encounters, swimming with dolphins, diving, visits to coral reefs and many breathtaking sights are some of the experiences you find in these places. Wynwood Walls, Miami
