I guess if you are in Key West for a few days you ought to go once for the experience. Crowds, street entertainers, stuff to buy, eat, and drink, and, oh yeah, the sunset. Do go when the weather is favorable. A cloudy day makes it just not quite the same. We were truly amazed at how many folks showed... more

Make sure you go to Mallory Square for the sunset. Zillions of people gather, so go a bit early. There are Magicians, Street Performers, fresh popcorn, fried conch, drinks, and lots of fun, besides the sunset! We had a great time. more

Most of the bars have the same musicians each night, and the 2nd time to watch them is never as good as the 1st. But not Mallory Square! Most performers, if not all, here in the afternoons & evenings are very entertaining, talented, and comical. There is a tremendous variety too - including Magic, music, animal acts, jugglers, "whip" guys,... more

A very interesting place that you must experience at least once. The entertainers were amazing and the sunset was breathtaking. A trip to Key West isn't complete without going to Mallory Square to watch the sunset. more

If you've spent any time in Key West and haven't stopped in Mallory Square, you're missing a great view. The sunset shows are put on by some very talented and daring performers. They usually stop about a half hour before sunset and then it's time for the most spectacular sunset on the planet. During the day, it's quiet, but as... more

A great way to end your day in Key West. You can't miss it, just head in the direction everyone else is walking about an hour before sunset. You never know what you'll see! The performers are amazing and a lot of fun. Kids will be amazed! more

Mallory Square is the best place to go and see the beautiful Key West sunset. There are vendors and street performers that are entertaining to see. Make sure you bring your camera! more

We had a great time watching the sunset and all the going ons. Make sure you bring some $1s because they do work for tips there. Catman was crazy but fun more

I second everything that has already been said here (except for the guacamole stand - I somehow missed that and I wish I hadn't). However I feel I need to place special attention on one of the sideshow performers - Dominique and his Flying Housecats! Dominique is a maniacal frenchmen who has spent way too many hours in the sun... more

Be sure to plan to spend at least one evening at Mallory Square's Sunset Celebration. The Square gets crowded with people but the atmosphere is unlike any other! more
