Things to do in Florida Keys, Florida Keys: The Best Visitor Centers

January 28, 2022 Enedina Augsburger

Stretching 126 miles south toward Cuba, the stunning Keys are a perfect escape. Highlights along the way include Key Largo, Islamorada, Marathon, Big Pine Key and the irrepressible Key West. Get up close with an amazing array of fish while snorkeling, diving or fishing in the warm turquoise waters. Creeks, coral and costumed spectacles are other lures along the way. Highway 1 is a spectacular ribbon tying together the islands and atolls of this paradise between the Gulf of Mexico and the Atlantic.

So incredibly helpful in what to do, when to go, maps, directions, coupons for many things, etc. The lovely lady from Yazoo, MS was so helpful to Dad and me on a tour for us along with a discount coupon for admission to the Hammock we toured. She recommended the perfect tour for us, place for dinner and also a happy hour spot. Best place to get the scoop on what to see in the area

Pigeon Key Foundation

The island of Pigeon Key is a historic 5-acre island located in the heart of the Florida Keys! It was once the home of over 400 workers who built the Overseas Railway from Miami to Key West. Today, the island is operated by the Pigeon Key Foundation, a 501(c)-3 not for profit organization. Our Visitor's Center, which is the address listed, is where our daily historical tours depart from at 10am, 12pm, and 2pm. We also operate a Marine Science Center on the island, school groups from all over the world come to Pigeon Key to be immersed in the ocean environment found right around the island. Visit our website or call our gift shop for more information about taking a tour! To keep our ferry crew, tour guides, staff and visitors safe, we will be requiring masks for admittance to the island and our tours will be based off of social-distancing suggestions.

Key West Visitors Center

Reviewed By 682victoriay

We were traveling to Key West and decided to stop here for a bathroom break. Nothing more as most visitor centers are BS. But....Penny was awesome! She made recommendations and was very personable. We decided right away to skip one of dinners and do a sunset cruise in Key West. The process was very simple. When we had a small issue, I texted Penny and everything was resolved immoderately. Best experience with a visitor center!
