While watching sunsets is universal , sunset celebrations with nightly entertainment seems to be unique to the Keys. Some visitors believe that the preferred place for viewing celebrations and sunset rituals is Mallory Square dock in Key West . Hilton and Hyatt Inn walk areas turn into a stage for local residents and visitors to watch the ever changing array of acts and performers.
