Visit Mallory Square where you're sure to see street performers or try the shopping on Duval Street. Because of its close proximity to the Gulf Stream and the Gulf of Mexico, Key West has a mild tropical-maritime climate where the average summer and winter temperatures rarely differ by more than 10 degrees. Prevailing trade winds and sea breezes join forces to subdue the summer heat. Temperatures in October range from 76 to 84 degrees. Conference dress is island casual.
Resort wear for men and women is appropriate.
