05 Visit Ernest Hemingway’s House

Visiting Ernest Hemingway's house is a must during your Key West vacation. He adored the island city and made it his home for several years. He created some of his famous works in Key West, and many of his characters had ties to the area. You can also see descendants of his beloved six-toed cat roaming the grounds and home.

The Hemingway Days festival is held each year in July to honor this Key West legend. Dress in your best Hemingway lookalike gear and join the festivities! They include poetry readings and special museum exhibits.
