The island is only two by four miles. The remaining part of the island (Newtown) is mainly residential with a hotel or motel along the water and beach. Many visitors consider the southernmost beach also known as south beach, the best beach on the island.

It was first used during a mock protest secession of the Keys from the United States on April 23, 1982.
The term continues to be used as a tourism slogan, and has been used in Key West television commercials and is part of the official flag. Key West celebrates Conch Republic Independence Day every April 23 as part of a week-long festival of activities involving numerous businesses in the city. The original protest event was motivated by a U.S. Border Patrol roadblock and checkpoint which greatly inconvenienced residents and was detrimental to tourism in the area. Tourism was, and is today the number one source of income for local residents. The most popular festival of the year (which there are many) is at the end of October, called Fantasy Fest. The theme is different every year and the finally is an all night street party that begins with a parade. Key West is the only city in the lower 48 states never to have had a frost.
