Marking the end of U.S. Route 1 where the Atlantic meets the Gulf, Key West’s iconic, red‑and‑black concrete buoy proclaims “90 Miles to Cuba” and draws sun‑seeking travelers to the island’s breezy Southernmost Point. Roosters and hens—free‑spirited locals in their own right—strut among palm‑cast shadows while visitors line up for photos, savoring pastel sunsets, salty air, and the laid‑back Conch Republic vibe. A proud Key West chicken sits hidden in the foreground of this nostalgic travel‑poster style with crisp, contemporary hues. The scene captures the whimsy, warmth, and south‑of‑somewhere spirit that make the Southernmost Point a must‑snap memory.
