Parking in Key West & Public
Transportation
It
is almost certain that if you are planning a trip to Key West that you have
heard horror stories of our small island's parking situation. While
parking is certainly an issue, many tourists do not realize that there are
city parking garages and public transportation available to you. Not
only will this eliminate the headache of driving and finding parking, but it
will eliminate some of that traffic as well.
**This page is provided to you for
informational purposes only. We are not the parking authority and we
do not know specifics other than what information we have already listed
here for you. Please do not contact us asking specific questions regarding
parking and the bus schedule, i.e. "Can we park an RV in the parking
garage?" or "Where can I get a bus schedule?" We do not have the
answers to these things and cannot answer them correctly. Thank you.
