Top Key West On the Water

We had a wonderful time on this excursion! We learned so many fun facts about the local mangroves, sea grass, and the wildlife that inhabit them. The mangroves are beautiful and certainly a unique ecosystem to explore. Nothing else like this in the US! Our guide, Cece, was knowledgeable and experienced, and made our time on the water fun. The staff on site were all very friendly and helpful. One thing to make sure of: If you’re booking through any travel service, not directly through the company’s website, make sure you receive a confirmation email with the excursion details directly from the company itself. For whatever reason, that did not get sent to us ahead of time. This led us to be technically half an hour late to our excursion, because there were no details stating an earlier arrival time except in that email alone. I received a call as we were on our way asking where we were. The business personnel acted confused and frustrated as to why we were arriving late, but realized in the end that the email with the details had not reached me (inadvertently). Once they realized that, the tone changed and they commented that this happens fairly often. Something to do with the booking programs not talking to each other. To the business owner: I would recommend updating your listings on travel excursion booking sites to state the earlier arrival time by a half hour. There’s no harm in doing so, and it would surely save a lot of people the trouble if this issue persists.

We had a wonderful time on the Dolphin watching and snorkeling tour with Captain Lisa and Caleb. We saw many dolphins and even saw a tiger shark which is apparently a rare sighting. Then we enjoyed the snorkeling. Both Captain Lisa and Caleb were friendly and helpful! I have done this tour twice with two different granddaughters and loved it both times!

What a great experience! We had so much fun, and the staff were extremely helpful and nice, they just made everything truly enjoyable. We caught yellowtail and mackerel and at the end of the fishing trip, they filleted it for us. We then went to one of the restaurants at the marina and they cooked it up for us. You should have seen the look on our son’s face when he first bit into the fish that he caught, his eyes got real big and wide as he said, “OH, WOW!!!!” This is something I’ll never forget!! I would definitely recommend!
