Sunset picture from Sunset Pier in Key West

 

 

 

 

 

No this is NOT a picture of a picture. There is an opening in the back of the entertainers stage at Sunset Pier and I snapped this picture through that opening.

I think it turned out pretty neat. VBG

One of the popular activities in Key West is sunset cruises. This sail boat and the one in the distance are just one of over a dozen boats operating out of Key West Bight Marina that take a load of passengers out to experience the sunset from out at sea.

It is hard to recommend one particular boat or company since they all seem to do a good job. We do not hear any complaints. Some boats leave the harbor with a band to provide music, others serve fine wine, others offer food, while some offer a sailing experience. No matter what their specialty or nook they all provide a platform for visitors to have a good time.

The best way to choose which boat is "right-for-you" is to walk Harbor Walk around Key West Bight Marina and what is available. It is fun as well as entertaining to stroll around Harbor Walk and check out the dining experiences and specialty, keep an eye in the water for the LARGE tarpon that cruise the harbor. The majority of boats offering sunset cruises operate out of Key West Bight Marina so you can see for yourself what the differences are and make up your mind which format best suites you personality.
