A Guide to the Perfect Valentine’s Day at the Historic Seaport

Planning a special Valentine’s Day can be very stressful. Not knowing what restaurant to make reservations for, what movie to get tickets to go see or being clueless on what gift to purchase. The Historic Seaport has made it easy for you with a guide to the perfect Valentine’s Day in Key West.

  1. Get your morning started with a cup of fresh coffee paired with a tasty breakfast sandwich at Cuban Coffee Queen or Fisherman’s Cafe. On the side of Cuban Coffee Queen is the popular mural that is full of color and the perfect Key West background to snap a picture with that special someone.

2. Walk along the harborwalk waterfront to your morning parasailing adventure for two and get the best view of Key West from high in the sky. We recommend booking your trip with Fury Water Adventures, Sebago Watersports or Sunset Watersports. All three companies are conveniently located at the Historic Seaport. Afraid of heights?  Not to worry, there are plenty of other water excursions. You and your Valentine can book a spot on a party cat, kayak or paddle board, snorkel or dive, or simply enjoy the sunset by setting sail with any number of Historic Seaport boat and sailing charters.
