Key West Marinas

Key West may be a tiny island, only two by four miles in size, but being an island you will find many marinas. This is actually a surprising fact to a lot of people. Many people ask me, “what is the main marina in Key West?” This question always throws me for a loop because […]
Lobo’s Mixed Grill | Review

Lobo’s Mixed Grill is located down a little alley way off of Duval in an area called Key Lime Square. This casual eatery has covered picnic tables for you relax at while you enjoy your wrap, burger, or sandwich. I decided to have lunch here the other day while I was in town with Indiana […]
Martin’s | Review
I had eaten at Martin’s before and enjoyed the experience, but it had been awhile so my husband and I decided to take some friends who were visiting from out of town. Located at 917 Duval Street next to the Restaurant Nine One Five sits this pretty little place with indoor and outdoor seating with […]
Fort Zachary Taylor State Park

Located at the end of Southard Street in Truman Annex is, in my opinion, the best beach in Key West: Fort Zachary Taylor State Park. The cost to visit the park is about $2.50 per pedestrian and $6.50 per vehicle, but it is well worth it when you consider the park’s beauty and the activities […]
Onlywood Pizzeria Trattoria | Review
Onlywood is a new Pizzeria located down a little alley off of Duval Street. It can be a bit difficult to find unless you know where to look. But if you know where Lobo’s or Antonia’s are located finding Onlywood presents no issues at all. We had our choice of sitting inside or outside, and […]
Five Guys | Review
So I love a burger on occasion, and I find it increasingly harder to find a good one. The crew loves going to Five Guys, and until recently I did not get all the hype as it just looked like another fast food place to me. So we all went to Five Guys for lunch […]
Celebrating Mothers Day in Key West
When I was a little girl, each Mother’s Day I would make my father take me shopping in the morning so that we could present my mother with a gift that evening. I would have him take me to a jewelry store or a florist and I would pick something out that I liked and […]
San Carlos Institute

I had no idea of what to expect inside this picturesque building. History The center has had many different homes on island. But in 1890 the […]
Frenchie’s Cafe | Review
One day a few months ago I was walking around downtown and I spied this little cafe on United Street. It was closed at the time, but I decided that I would try Frenchie’s Cafe one day soon. Well that day came this past weekend, and all I can say is that I wish I […]

Island Fish Company and Tiki Bar | Review
Normally I write about Key West and the Lower Keys, but I am taking a slight departure here and writing about a place located in Marathon which is really only about a 45 minute drive away from Key West. The first time I ate at the Island was over 10 years ago, and back then […]
