Best time to visit Key West?

So my parents recently moved to Key West, Florida, and they’re nagging my wife and me to visit. My folks apparently have something against air conditioning (they have it, but never turn it on), and on their most recent call, they proudly announced they were already eating dinner (it was 3pm). Anyways, they ARE my parents, so when is the best time to visit Key West?

Well, we sympathize with your plight! The best time to visit your ‘rents in Key West,
Florida
is from March to May, as you’ll miss the heavy tourist season, the temperature will still be beautiful in the 70s and 80s, and hotels, airfare, and restaurants will be lower-priced than the high season.
When you need to get out because mom and dad won’t stop asking about when you’re having kids, you’ll find plenty to do in Key West:
  • Sunning yourself to a crisp on some of Key West’s gorgeous beaches
  • Enjoying vibrant festivals such as musical ones such as Afro Roots World Festival, or indulging in Taste of Key West, both happening every April
  • Visiting the Ernest Hemingway Home and Museum, where the famed author lived during the 1930s—check out the study where the old man by the sea wrote For Whom the Bell Tolls, Death in the Afternoon, and Green Hills of Africa (but not The Old Man and the Sea)
  • Say hi to one of the cats that live on the Hemingway grounds—many are likely descendants of a white, six-toed cat that Hemingway was gifted by a ship captain
Whenever you head to Key West for a week full of parental love, interrogation, and constant check-ins about whether you’ve eaten or not, be sure to protect your vehicle with a robust
