Mallory Square that is the place.
Retirement trips only happen once. Many trips are worth the dollars. Save money along the way using Forest service, COE, TVA and national park campgrounds
I am cheap but when it comes to nice locations, I have the dollars.

Good luck the KOA was one of the most expensive 93.00 (in 2011)- all I could get was a water and electric site in the Mangrove area - avoid this at all costs. Tightest campgrounds I have ever stayed in and I like KOA's. I could not even put out my awning it was so narrow.

See if you can get into Bluewater Key it is great - but it too is expensive but worth it.

The Sunset party at Key West


That is actually at Mallory Square, the craziness of Duval St. Spend a day and go to Fort Jefferson aka Dry Tortuggas. It is a day trip on a fast boat with a great place to swim or snorkel. Then there is the fort! Millions of bricks all hauled in on sailing schooners.
Wake early and go to the east side and watch sun rise, before going to Sunset.
