Oldest house in Key West ca. 1829
Highlight • Historical Site
The house features family portraits and original furnishings, as well as other historical pieces, ship models and documents that tell the story of old Key West. At the back of the house is a spacious, peaceful garden where the benches invite you to sit and reflect. There you will see the only surviving Cook House in South Florida.

Southernmost Point Buoy
Highlight • Monument
In fact, Southernmost Point is not the southernmost point of Key West. This is located on the US Navy base next door. Because Key West is an island, the southernmost point of the continental USA is near Flamingo in the Everglades.
In October 2017, the large painted buoy that marks the southernmost point of the continental United States was restored for the final time. Before that, the buoy, which is one of the most photographed subjects in the Florida Keys, was somewhat affected by Hurricane Irma. Local artist Danny Acosta was responsible for the new painting with the help of a few other people.
On January 1, 2022, the buoy was set on fire by two men. The two vandals had placed a Christmas tree directly in front of the buoy and set it on fire, which caused it to fall onto the buoy and damage it.
