Duval Street is Key West's most famous street, known for its vibrant atmosphere, diverse attractions, and lively nightlife. It stretches over a mile from the Gulf of Mexico to the Atlantic Ocean, earning it the nickname "the longest street in the world". The street is packed with bars, restaurants, shops, and historic landmarks, making it a popular destination for both day and night. It was personally one of our favorite locations within Key West, as there are so many shops and things to see. It's also where CVS is located and easy to pick up things you're missing on your trip.
