Key West Florida Tourism At a GlanceBest Time to Visit Florida Keys Florida
According to one local, November is the best month in Key West. The crowd is minimal and the weather is perfect. High season in the Keys is mid-December through March, and traffic on the Overseas Highway (and seven-mile bridge) is terribly heavy. From November to the middle of December, crowds begin to wane, and the weather is out of this world. However, summer, even though hot and humid, is becoming a second high season, especially among families and Europeans. Click Here to find hotels in Florida Keys.

During the summer, the average high reaches the upper 80s to low 90s. During the summer months, you can also expect more rain in Key West, mostly in the form of thunderstorms. Usually the storms pass rather quickly, although driving in them is not recommended. During the winter, Key West boasts a pleasant climate, with temperatures averaging 75 degrees. The humidity is no where near the summer levels and the water is perfect for swimming. Transportation
The recommended mode of transport around Key West is by scooter or bike. Walking is even suggested over the use of your car. Parking is scarce in Key West and you'll pay a pretty penny to do it. If you're flying in and strictly plan to stay in Key West, you don't even need to rent a car. However, if you're planning to peruse the other Keys, you'll definitely need a car. In-Season Costs
Avoid Key West in March, when spring breakers line Duval Street. Hotels, motels and inns significantly drop rates during the summer months by nearly half the going rate. The high season is winter and costs are known to nearly triple. Florida Tourism - Florida Keys Attractions, Activities and Day Trips
If you've got a few days to spare, head to Miami. Roughly four hours north of Key West, Miami is home to the famous South Beach - a hotspot for nightlife. Key West isn't the only Key. There are several more. Take a drive up US Highway 1 and you'll pass Duck Key, Cow Key, Big Pine Key, Islamorada and Key Largo

Dry Tortugas National Park
National Park
Category: Key West National Park near Florida Keys, Florida
Description of this Florida Keys area Attraction: Almost 70 miles (112.9 km) west of Key West lies a cluster of seven islands, composed of coral reefs and sand, called the Dry Tortugas. Along with the surrounding shoals and waters, they make up Dry Tortugas National Park. The area is known for its famous bird and marine life, and its legends of pirates and sunken gold. Fort Jefferson, one of the largest coastal forts ever built, is a central feature.
The Tortugas were first discovered by Ponce de Leon in 1513. Abundant sea turtles or "tortugas" provisioned his ships with fresh meat, but there was no fresh water-the tortugas were dry. Since the days of Spanish exploration, the reefs and shoals of the Dry Tortugas have been a serious hazard to navigation and the site of hundreds of shipwrecks.
U.S. military attention was drawn to the keys in the early 1800's due to their strategic location in the Florida Straits. Plans were made for a massive fortress and construction began in 1846, but the fort was never completed. The invention of the rifled cannon made it obsolete. As the military value of Fort Jefferson waned, its pristine reefs, abundant sea life and impressive numbers of birds grew in value. In 1935, President Franklin Roosevelt set aside Fort Jefferson and the surrounding waters as a national monument. The area was redesignated as Dry Tortugas National Park in 1992 to protect both the historical and natural features.
