July in Key West has its own rhythm. The streets are a little quieter, mornings linger a little longer, and there’s more time to discover the island at your own pace.
But don’t mistake a slower season for a sleepy one. With Hemingway Days just around the corner, the island is preparing to celebrate one of its most beloved traditions. From the famous look alike contest to literary events, lively gatherings, and a colorful cast of characters, there’s plenty to experience.
Spend the day exploring, then return to the calm of Marquesa, where peaceful gardens, cool pools, and a quiet retreat await.
