Enough 🍹 fun here. Let’s hop back on your 🏇 saddles and continue this hunt. 🔄 back the way you came and ⬅️ on 🧭 St. 🚲 it to the 🔚, right where it ↩️ to the ➡️ and 🛑 here for a second.
You have arrived at the most 🧭 southern point of the Continental US. If it’s missing, don’t have a Conch Meltdown; you just passed its "stunt double" copy at your last 🛑 (near the 😇 Bar).
While the sign claims we are standing at the "Southernmost Point" of the continental 🇺🇸, the true southernmost tip of Key West is actually hidden a few hundred feet away on restricted ⚓ Navy property.
However, if we ignore every other spot in 🌴 Florida and look at the rest of the country, this landmark is still a record-breaker!

At the 🔚 of the 🛣️ you should see an open 🚧 gate, wiggle your way through the small 🌳.
(💡 Hint: Should the 🌳 be 🔒, 🔄 and do this: ⬅️ ⬅️ and continue at the Community Center).
🚲 with caution—you’ll see a 🎪 pavilion to your ➡️. As you come out, ⬅️. Leave the Community Center on your ⬅️ and enter the next little 🌳. This park is named after a famous one-armed, one-eyed British sea captain and has a playground, so watch out for little Bubbas playing! Exit that 🌳 on the other side, 🚲 across the 🅿️, and enter the 🛣️ directly opposite.
From here, move out:
⬆️ ⬆️ (⚠️: Two-way 🛑 sign only!)
⬅️ ⬆️ ➡️ ⬆️ ⬆️ (💡 Hint: This 🛣️ starts with a "P"!)
Enter the 🅿️ to your ⬅️. Ride by a 📻 tower on your ➡️, hang a ➡️ by the ⚽ field, and keep rolling until you hit a big intersection with a 🟦 blue sign on the opposite ⬅️ side.
Here we ⬅️ and follow the 🛣️ to the very 🔚 until you hit a 🚧 gate. On your way there, answer a quick question:

But before you go...
