Thanks Swag and BlackBird for that vote of confidence for KW. Here's the thing: it's an island about a mile long. To the north is the Gulf of Mexico, to the south is the Atlantic. It IS very relaxed. You can cycle everywhere you need to go. So it's small, but has an intensely educated, cultural atmosphere. Educated pirates. There's writers, awesome music, theatre, seafood fresh from the ocean, diving, and chickens running around. The first thing you notice though is the quality of the light. Important for me, is that while it's Caribbean, I feel safe there. I've been to a Caribbean vacation resorts where all along the beach are guntowers.I'd describe it as Florida-meets-Cuba-meets-Spring Break
Yes there's the Springbreakitude of it, if you hang around on Duval Street.
