Know Before You Go

Parking anywhere in Key West is somewhat of a challenge. "Old Town" is the heart of Key West, where most shops, galleries, and the Historical Seaport is located. This is where most island activities/excursions depart from. The streets have pay-by-block parking meters – these take cash, quarters, or credit/debit cards. We suggest you bike, walk, ride scooters, or take a taxi to the docks and just leave your car at your hotel accommodation. If that is not an option, the streets do have pay parking lots and metered parking spaces. Some City of Key West marinas have free parking for fishing charter boat clients.
