Personalized, unhurried, and run by a local crew that actually cares — that’s what sets this trip apart.

What are people saying about Key West

George_M, Sep 2026

Exceptional Adventure

2 hour peaceful ferry boat ride to Fort Jefferson. We then do the 30 minutes fort tour and spent another 30 minutes walking along the top of the fort. We then got snorkeling gear and snorkeled at the piers on the north post. We then swam around the outside of the fort and hit the piers in the south beach. There were a ton of fish at both sets of piers. I highly recommend snorkeling and swimming out to the old piers on both beaches. Do the short tour as it is very informative. The fort is incredible and unbelievable to see and the snorkeling is great and I recommend this as A MUST DO in Key Wedt

Great adventure

Great time! Great crew! Nice trip and snorkeling. Only down side was lots of jellyfish. They didn't sting real bad but I did run into one with my FACE! They have vinegar on board so it was fine. We were confused as to where to meet and would have liked someone to tell us whet to go but overall, we would do it again. Muffins and fruit were good. Lots of water and juice, too.

Snorkeling Excursion

We went snorkeling and our Captain and crew were female. They did a fantastic job and were very safety conscious. The crew also was very informative about the reef, history and the different aquatic species. They also told very interesting facts about the dauphins and turtles we saw. The crew was very accommodating to all the passengers. We would book with them again!!

Great Boat and Staff, Reef Not So Impressive

The catamaran was exactly as pictured — spotless, comfortable, and well stocked. The captain and crew were fun, friendly, and professional, and they truly made the excursion an enjoyable experience from start to finish. The only drawback was the coral reef itself, which wasn’t very impressive and didn’t offer much to see. If your main goal is vibrant snorkeling, you may want to explore other options. But if you’re looking for a great group outing or a fun, laid‑back booze‑cruise style trip, this is an excellent choice.

Key West Dolphin Watch and Snorkel Tour - Eco Adventure

Don't Be Afraid: Must Try!

WOW! I cannot believe I almost let my anxiety cancel this amazing opportunity. Please, to any first-time snorkelers out there, rest assured you will be in great hands when you book this excursion! Lisa and Aydan are the sweetest, and they are so open to answering any of your questions and making you feel comfortable both aboard and in the water. They provide reef-safe sunscreen, so try to come bare-skinned to minimize damage to the marine ecology! Speaking of the ecology, this tour offered everything it promised--and in abundance! We were able to see so many dolphins, both adults and juveniles (very precious), during our mid-August afternoon outing. As Lisa explained, the dolphins here are used to the presence of boats, so we even got several opportunities to view the dolphins up-close (one even passed directly underneath our vessel), which was beyond exciting. I was also taken aback by just how much I was able to see while snorkeling, too! I didn't have my expectations set too high, but there was such a nice diversity of marine life that I observed. We got lucky and even had a nurse shark encounter right off the boat! For my first introduction to snorkeling, this tour has made me fall in love and want to pursue more snorkeling opportunities in the future. Thank you so much to Lisa, Aydan, and Fury for this incredible experience!

Super Experience for all ages

We had an awesome time on this excursion. There were 21 of us total which is a LOT. Ages ranging from 2 years old to 65 years old. The crew was super helpful and the water was beautiful. The only odd thing is the captain approached our group a number of times telling us we needed to tip the crew because we were such a large group. We ALWAYS tip the crew and certainly do not need numerous reminders. It was uncomfortable how pushy he was. We tipped over $300 as a group so the crew was well taken care of. It was just odd.

Our entire family (of 4) rated this as #1 experience on the island (and we did 4 different activities in 3 days on Key West). The reef is absolutely amazing. The ocean is so warm this time of the year. The Crew was wonderful. Beer after snorkeling is so refreshing)) We loved it!

Amazing staff

Staff was very knowledgeable, safety oriented and hospitable. When snorkeling our first mate hopped in the water to identify different fish and he was right there to ensure everyone was safe and comfortable. On the way there and on the way back our first mate offered to take lots of photos of us which was nice. On the way back they served us adult beverages and waters which was nice.

Key West Double-Dip Snorkel Tour-Two Stops, Twice the Fun!

Jacqueline_R, Jul 2026

Unforgettable First Snorkeling trip for our family.

This was totally amazing. Our Captain Ryan and his Hep Emmi were wonderful they answered questions. Made everyone feel comfortable, and you could tell that not only do they care about the people on the boat but they love doing what they do. That makes a huge difference. They took us to 2 wonderful spots, and the ride was in and out of the pier was peaceful. From what I witnessed everyone on the boat had a great time, Ps first snorkeling adventure ever and will never forget it.
