Key West Activities

I am really getting anxious to get to Key West, we will be there almost a week this time. Normally we have not done much other than attend the races, visit the pits, and go to the bars. I know Key West has more to offer than that, so I was wondering aside from the obvious; bars and races what else you like to do when down there.
 
If you have a day you want to relax, go out to the fort at the Dry Tortugas and snorkel etc....
 
Same here. Craig about summed it up nicely. Usually all we do is barhop, drink, watch races, barhop, drink, screw and sleep. Erin's begging me this year to actually do something...why, I have no idea. :D We're thinking about doing the dry Tortugas and snorkeling thing this year. Saturday would be our day.
 
The Hemingway house is a good way to waste an hour or two ,its interesting.

And i highly recommend mimosa's at PEPES for breakfast, i love the chipped beef.

Irish Kevins for the never ending drunken singalongs.

The big 52 footsailboat i run for my buddy is kept at the Hogfish in stock island these days so we will be down there.I can maybe get you out for a drunken day of sailing if you would be up to it.
 
This may sound homosexual but me and my wife rented bicycles and rode the perimeter of the island a few times. You get to see everything because you aren't speeding around in a car and you get exercise.

Other than that we hang at the pool and beach at the Galleon, walk around town and shop, DRINK, lose cell phones, lose wallets, lose our dignity...
 
A cheap date is the rent a bicycle and ride all around the island. You would be surprised what you find when exploring on a bike...tend to pick up on little things you might drive past. It is also a good way to sweat out the booze from the night before! Jet ski rentals can also be fun.

We've also done this ( http://dangercharters.com/ ). Good way to fill a day (on non race day of course). Find a coupon and it is not that expensive. We did snorkeling, kayaking and they privide food and drinks. Saw lobsters, fish of all kinds, dolphins and have a close encounter with a couple of small sharks.

Oh no, I just suggested the same thing...I guess we are both homo's!! LOL. :leaving:

Get a room! There are plenty of places in Key West that would be glad to have ya. :26:

Kidding. The Mel Fischer museum was kinda cool, but it was a while back when I went through it- dunno what it is like these days.
 
bikes are not a homo thing for us at all, we ride all the time, although I think I will tell Ian to leave his tight black bike shorts with the padded crotch at home:biggrinjester: I was even thinking about renting one for the whole week. I know you will think I am crazy but I looking at getting a gym membership for the week.

Maybe if enough people are interested we could get a SOS group rental on one of those snorkeling charter boats.

yes, yes, yes, yes we would love that, I will pack the cooler with beer:cheers2: and mojitos
 
Last time down I chartered a small (25ft) fishing boat and went cuda hunting. What a friggin workout. Boated 11 out of 14 fish. My body ached for 3 days afterwards but well worth the $$
 
Barb, I was so happy to hear you will be in Key West. I just talked to the guy at Danger Charters they have some nice outings. He told me that if we got 24 people for the sunset cruise or 20 people for the snorkeling they would give us 10% off and we would have the boat to ourselves, plus crew of course. The sunset cruise sounds good, Barb you would like it since they serve top of the line wine. I would be in for a Friday night sunset cruise and or a Saturday snorkel half day or full day. Is anyone else interested??

Erin and I would be in on the Saturday morning Snorkeling thing. That's the one thing I'm obligated to do this year.
