Must Do Key West
    What the Conchs know & love
    HIGH ENERGY

    Bachelorette Party

    Brunch, boat day, Duval. We plan the whole thing for the bride — you just show up.

    Key West is one of the top three bachelorette destinations in America for a reason: it's a 4-mile party island where you can walk between everything, the water is bachelorette-photo perfect, and nobody side-eyes a sash. The local move is to over-plan the boat day and under-plan the night — you'll find the rest. Our concierge has run hundreds of these.

    IF YOU DO NOTHING ELSE
    • Private sandbar charter — the bachelorette day-one essential
    • Brunch at Blue Heaven (book ahead) or Salute on the Beach
    • Sunset rum runner party boat — bar, drinks included, photos for days
    • Drag brunch at La Te Da (Sundays) — yes, really
    • A walking pub crawl Duval Saturday night
    • Sloppy Joe's at least once — even if it's a tourist trap
    WHAT TO SKIP
    • Don't book the cheapest jet-ski tour — go with a verified operator. Stories happen.
    • Don't rely on Uber after midnight. Plan for pedicabs.
    • Don't book the boat for the morning after Duval night. Trust us.
    • Don't pick a hotel without a pool. Recovery happens by the pool.

    COMMON QUESTIONS
    Best month?

    March, April, May, October. Avoid Fantasy Fest week unless you want the whole island to be the party.

    How big can a group be?

    Most sandbar charters cap at 10. For 12+ you'll need two boats — we can sync them.

    Is it expensive?

    Plan $400–$700 per guest for a 3-night weekend including activities, not flights.
