) to fish,
snorkel, dive, kayak, hike, cycle, fish some more, snorkel again and swim with
dolphins. North America's best coral reefs percolate under the jade-green water
and provide brag-worthy expeditions. Then there's Key West, the gloriously un-
kempt, bawdy, freak-loving exclamation point at the end of the line. Hippies, fire-
jugglers, artists and other free spirits converge on its carnival atmosphere after
dark.
