Best Places to Ride Key West Bike Rentals

With a Key West bike rental from Island Safari Rentals, you can explore the beauty and amazing history of Key West from the streets to the shoreline. But if you want a more organized plan for your ride around town, here are some of the best places to ride bikes in Key West.

 

Mallory Square

At the top of every list of places to visit is Mallory Square -and for great reasons too! You can ride your rental bike from your vacation residence down to Mallory Square in the evening to watch the sunset and join in the Key West Sunset Celebration, a mini-festival held every night. Mallory Square is a bike-friendly spot and you can simply relax and watch the entertainment from jugglers, artists, and musicians. This hub of activity is a place to find everything you need -from souvenirs to take back home, essentials you need for your stay in Key West, or restaurants/bars to have a good time. 

 

Key West Shipwreck Treasure Museum

Ride your bike down Whitehead Street and stop at the Key West Shipwreck Treasure Museum, where 400 years of shipwreck salvage is put on display. The structure of this museum is designed to replicate a 19th-century warehouse and it is part of the allure of this treasured museum. Get to see actual salvaged artifacts from Isaac Allerton’s 1856 wreck, performances of shipwreck and salvage operations, as well as films depicting the ship wreckage history in Key West. 

 

Key West Butterfly & Nature Conservatory

Housing 60 species of butterflies, with an array of birds and turtles, the Key West Butterfly & Nature Conservatory is a representation of the beauty of nature right on the island. The ride to this conservatory offers a scenic view that is made better by the destination. The greenhouse offers a guided tour filled with informative pointers about the different species of butterflies and elements of nature. You can stop at the Conservatory on Duval Street before heading to lunch and make it an exciting afternoon trip. 

 

Truman Little White House Museum 

How iconic would it be to ride a bike to the white house? Well, it may be impossible but, you can ride your bike to a former presidential residence in Key West. The 33rd president of the United States, Harry Truman Little, used this property as his winter residence during his presidency. Since vacated by the former president, the house has been transformed into a museum filled with artifacts, furniture, and other memorabilia of Truman Little’s time in the White House. 

 

Audubon House & Tropical Gardens

Another iconic former residence is the Audubon House & Tropical Gardens, which previously housed Captain John Huling Geiger and his family. The historic mansion is a grand property that has undergone renovation as a museum filled with antiques and artworks of artists John James Audubon, who inspired the name of the house. You can ride your bike to this iconic location and enjoy a brief dive into history.
