A Key West vacation may be more commercialized than it used to be, but this sunny island at the end of the Florida Keys is still one of the world's most recognized vacation destinations. Perhaps it's the laid-back, local sense of sun-drenched hedonism that tourists find most contagious.
Gorgeous weather, a tropical feel, and a quirky, laid-back group of beach-town dwellers.
