Shopping in Key West- much more than a t-shirt shop.
Historic Duval St. in Old Town Key West offers the best people watching, eating and drinking and, most importantly, the best shopping in South Florida. Everybody who comes to the island eventually gets around to cruising this street, where some of the most unusual and original shops offer something for everyone. Anchored at one end by Mallory Square and at the other by the southernmost
point in the United States, Duval Street’s boutiques and gift shops
are as much of the local charm as the gorgeous sunsets. National chain stores such as Banana Republic, Coach and Express have moved in and satisfy some of the shopping needs in a town that does not boast even a single mall. More memorable, however, is Fast Buck Freddie’s – an amazing emporium of fine clothing, home decorations and gifts that townsfolk call the “Southernmost Bloomingdale’s” - with window displays that could compete with Tiffany’s. Another genuine Key West shopping experience is Key West Aloe at 419 Duval Street who for over 35 years has made natural aloe products to protect, soothe and moisturize your skin the way nature intended. Off Duval you will find the charming and unique Besame Mucho at 315 Petronia Street, offering a romantic collection of international delights including French beauty products, exotic chocolate, housewares, and original jewelry. And don't miss The Key Lime Shop, located at the corner of Greene Street & Elizabeth Street which, as the name implies, makes and sells items made from the legendary local citrus fruit. Caroline Street is another colorful Old Town street with eye-popping shops such as Local Color, Blue and Global Nomad. If you are interested in original designs for your home, you must visit Glass Reunions on Duval Street. You'll find the incredible work of noted stain glass artist Greg McDonald. Exquisite arts and crafts genre lamps found in few galleries worldwide. If you are looking for something truly different, and need a local’s
