Tying the knot...need suggestions on honeymoon

[93STLTH]

Red tide almost never affects the Keys. I've vacationed in the the Keys for the past 22 years. It's my favorite place to visit. I live in San Diego, but still go to the Keys every year. For a honeymoon, I would definitely recommend staying in Key West. There are more activities, restaurants, museums, tours and history than what you'd find in the other Keys. There's a huge selection of hotels in different price ranges depending on your budget, but expect to pay at least $150 per night for a decent place that's close to the downtown area.
I'd definitely recommend taking the trip out to the Dry Tortugas, about 70 miles by boat west of Key West. It's one of the most beautiful places I've ever been and the snorkeling from the beach is the best outside of Hawaii in the US.
I'd also recommend flying into Ft. Lauderdale and driving down as opposed to flying into Key West. It's much cheaper, often by $200 or $300 per ticket over flying into Key West or Miami and it's also a great drive once you hit the overseas highway, one you shouldn't miss. If you're a beach goer, the beach at Bahia Honda, about 30 miles east of Key West, was listed as one of the best beaches in America a number of times. It's a state park, so it's undeveloped and has many unusual animals and plants found nowhere else in the US. My favorite beach on Key West is Fort Taylor state park. It has deep water right off the beach and lots of fish swimming around the rocks that are placed offshore to attract them. If you'd like any more information, I'll check this thread and try and answer what ever I can.
