Partner and I were lucky to get timeshare week in Dec! I've only been to Key West for a few hours on cruise stop over, but this will be my partner's first time! Any suggestions on activities/must do's we can't miss during the week we will be there? :thumbsup2
 
We've gone to Key West a couple of times and will be there again the 1st week of December.
One of things we've done that we always enjoy is a sunset cruise on the BluQ with Captain Steve. The website is www.bluqkeywest.com
It's a great time.
There are many great restaurants as well. One of our favorites is 7 Fish. Mangoes is also very good and a casual place.
The website that jamieandben gave you has a lot of good info on it. If you have any other questions let me know and I'll try and help.
 
My partner and I went last April for a week. I rented a house just off Duval St. and took my parents(mom's 60th b-day present, and about 6 of my friends). My parents are frequent Key Westers and really showed us the ropes. By all means(if you are inclined to have a few cocktails) try and do the "Duval Crawl." We started at around 11am one morning and walked up and down Duval St. having a cocktail in each bar we passed. Needless to say, by the end of the day you are pretty much done! :drinking1
Also, my mom took us to the Butterfly Museum at the end of Duval St. I know it sounds really corny but believe it or not it was actually pretty cool. At the end of the museum walkthrough is a big greenhouse type room full of tropical plants, birds and HUNDREDS of butterflies. They will actually fly and sit on your shoulder or hand if you let them. We got some really cool pictures in there. Just a suggestion......but if you are creeped out by bugs I would reconsider! :goodvibes
 

Thanks for the great suggestions! The Duval Crawl sounds right up our alley (especially as we are seasoned "drinking around the world" travelers). Butterfly museum sounds like something we will check out as well.
