A few things close to the docks.

 

The Key West Aquarium (go during one of the shark feedings) ---> http://www.keywestaquarium.com/

 

The Wrecker's museum especially for the views from the tower ---> http://www.keywestshipwreck.com/

 

The Key West Kite and Flag store ---> http://www.keywestkitecompany.com/

 

The Mad Hatter ---> http://www.keywestmadhatter.com/

 

And a little farther afield, the Butterfly Conservatory ---> http://www.keywestbutterfly.com/

Thank you for those great suggestions! Would you happen o know if DCL offers any excursions that include one of those options? We would especially like the shipwreck museum and kite store!

ummm Aquarium...I may get off the ship after all. They have turtles and alligators, my 2 year old will be happy.

 

Thanks!

 

I just read about Florida Keys Eco Center -free. There's a thread with free things to do in Key West, there's a beach as well. I like free even better!

They're all withing walking distance, really no need to book ship excursions to any of them.

The Aquarium is right in Mallory Square.....it's very close to where the ships port

We did the Key West art and history museum, the butterfly conservatory, city view trolly hop on and hop off tour and Kermit's Key Lime Shoppe. In the past we have also done the Hemingway House and enjoyed visiting his cats. Lots of great things to do with a family.
