Southernmost Point Buoy

The Southernmost Point Buoy in Key West, Florida, is a famous landmark marking the southernmost point of the continental United States accessible by road. It is a large, colorful concrete buoy that displays “90 miles to Cuba,” highlighting its proximity to the island nation. Located along the U.S. Highway 1 waterfront, it’s a popular photo spot and symbol of the island’s tropical charm. While not the absolute southernmost point of all U.S. territory, it is the southernmost point reachable by car in the continental U.S., representing the geographic and cultural gateway to the Caribbean.
