Mallory Square is Key West’s famed waterfront plaza for dramatic sunsets, street performers, pastel historic buildings, visiting tall ships and ferry traffic — ideal for colorful golden-hour and silhouette shots. No entry fee; arrive 60–90 minutes before sunset (earlier on weekends) for prime foregrounds. Boardwalk is mostly wheelchair accessible; parking is metered/paid lots nearby. Expect crowds and lively vendors; tip performers for photos. Watch weather/sea breeze for changing light.
