Located at the head of Duval Street, Mallory Square is the perfect spot to start - and end - your day's adventure. There are shops and restaurants galore... and just "behind the" square is the daily sunset celebration. You have not lived until you have seen the cat man and his furry charges.

A nice plaza with a great view of the gulf especially while the sun is going down. Lots of street fair type vendors and shows. Parking is a bit tough as it is off the main street, but the walk is worth the view.

This is certainly the place where weird goes professional, but there is nothing like sunset on Mallory Square. It is all free, but getting there is not. Parking will cost you. Let me add some free stuff you may overlook: a sculpture garden, including great art work on ship salvagers, and head statutes and bios of an interesting and diverse... More

When in Key West, you have to catch a sunset at Mallory Square. Why?? It is a great people watching spot and the live entertainment is unique. And, of course, a great view of the sunset.

Mallory square is a must if you visit Key West! There are performers(high-wire, fire breathing,juggling,etc) that fill up the square at dusk and perform late into the evening. Some of them are funny, and they definetly know how to keep your attention. Some do ask for crowd participation. While we were there, my boyfriend got picked 3 different times to... More

A must go to watch the sunset and see some crazy street performers. Grab a fruity drink and make sure to keep an eye out for the "green flash"! After the sun sets, the performers keep going. There is also lots of homemade crafts and gifts for sale.

The street performers were enthusiastic but not the quality I found in Venice or Santa Monica. It is the right side of the island for sunset but unfortunately not the pretty side.

Fun atmosphere, one night of the performers is plenty. A couple of the singers weren't too good. The sunset is worth the trip and we went there a couple nights just for the sunset.
