History of the Southernmost Point in Key West

The Southernmost Point in Key West, Florida, marked by a brightly painted concrete buoy, is a significant landmark with a rich history that reflects the unique culture and geography of the Florida Keys. Established in 1983, the buoy is often mistaken as the southernmost point in the continental United States; however, it is, in fact, the southernmost point in the contiguous United States, located just 90 miles from Cuba.
