Overview

Beyond Key West’s tiki bars and rum runners lies a fascinating history—best discovered at Sails To Rails Museum, right on Key West Bight. With interactive exhibits and rare artifacts, you’ll travel through the islands’ many eras, from “sponging” to turtling, cigar making, fishing, and more. You’ll even touch an entire bar of pirate silver, dating back 500 years.

Great museum! Gives you the lowdown on Key West from the sea to the rails. Fascinating history. All self guided so you can take your time well worth the price of admission, which is very reasonable.
