Captain Micah, Anthony, and Trevor were on time, courteous, attentive and informative. They were supportive guides and good teachers. You will have fun, see unexpected water life, and a variety of birds. The drinks and snacks were perfect and they ordered an amazing sunset for us.

This was out second time with Danger, and we really enjoyed both outings. Smaller crowds, lovely boat, informative guides, and great time on the water. I appreciated the use of wet suits, it was a thoughtful addition to the experience.

Get Out on the Water with Danger Charters

Jamie_P, Mar 2026
We had an amazing half-day adventure on the water with Captain Mary and Bible! From sailing to snorkeling to kayaking, every moment was packed with fun, relaxation, and just the right amount of adventure. What really made the experience special was how much we learned along the way—everything from sailing to the history of Key West, plus insights into the stunning natural habitats we explored. It felt like the perfect mix of education and enjoyment. If you’re looking to get out on the water and make unforgettable memories, don’t miss a trip with Danger Charters—you’ll be so glad you did!

Couldn’t ask for more

Captain Micah, Anna, and Bible were terrific guides. Beautiful sail boat with fun snorkeling & kayaking. Sunset perfect

Great day in Key West

Ray_P, Mar 2026
We had a great time. The crew were friendly and knowledgeable about the nature we saw and the history of the area. Kayaking was great through the mangroves and an easy excursion for even less experienced kayakers. Crew made sure to go to a snorkeling area with great visibility. Roughly 4 hour trip and a really nice day.

Do it!

We learned a lot and enjoyed the activities. The crew and Captain took good care of us. The sunset was killer!

Fun on the water!

Cassie_P, Feb 2026
We took the afternoon cruise with snorkeling and kayaking. We also got to see a beautiful sunset from the water. The captain and crew were wonderful and it was organized and well done from start to finish. Fantastic value - I highly recommend!

Great tour. GREATEST guides!

Kristen_P, Feb 2026
Simply a wonderful tour - the weather was “fine”, the guides (Connor, Anthony, and Mika) were AMAZING. Knowledgeable, friendly, patient with first-time kayakers and snorkelers. The tour group was a mix of ages, and they connected well with everyone. Just phenomenal vibes and a relaxed atmosphere. They really went all out to make certain that they maximized the conditions and the experience. Probably the nicest tour guides we’ve ever had for something like this.

Wonderful time! Micah,...

Daniella_L, Feb 2026
Wonderful time! Micah, Anthony and Trevor were incredibly knowledgeable, personable and helpful throughout the tour.

Day on the water

Rose_B, Feb 2026
We had just enough wind to put up the sails. The snorkel and kayaking were lots of fun and got a bit of history along the way. Sacked w Micah, Anthony and Carson and they were awesome. Plenty of snacks and beverages after playing hard all afternoon. Would go out with these guys again!

Schooner snorkeling/kayaking in the keys

Andrea_G, Feb 2026
This is well worth the $125 cost! The crew could not have been nicer or more accommodating! I was worried that it would be too cold to snorkel but there were wetsuits available for use. I had never been snorkeling before but it didn’t matter because the crew was very patient with you. My husband and I loved this experience! Would actually do it again!

Great time!

Desiree_K, Jan 2026
We had some weather come in while we were out. The Captain and crew did a great job keeping everyone safe and really made the best of it! We highly recommend this tour.

Marina_M, Jan 2026
This was such a great experience! The captain and staff were super fun and had a lot of good information about the area during the trip for first time travelers. Would highly recommend this trip!

Great way to explore natural side of the Keys

Anonymous, Jan 2026
I had a wonderful time with Nate, Molly, and Bible. They were very helpful, warm, hospitable. This is a great way to explore the natural side of the Keys. I definitely recommend it.

Great day on the water!

Krista_T, Jan 2026
We had a great time with Lexi and Joe! We learned a lot about the ecology and history of the area. While there wasn’t enough wind to use sail power, they let us help put up the sails so it felt like we were yachting. The upside to the lack of wind was that we could easily snorkel and kayak. Highly recommend this experience - especially with Lexi and Joe!

Awesome 1/2 day excursion !

Brent_M, Jan 2026
It met all our expectations ! The crew was amazing ! Captain Brian , Connor , Sam ! Snorkeling was great, we saw so much wildlife while kayaking !

Wonderful variety of...

Nacole_S, Jan 2026
Wonderful variety of water sports to do. Micah, Anthony, and Laura were very knowledgeable about the wildlife that was seen during our trip. Would definitely recommend to anyone who is up to being on the water!

Great sunset sail

rene_d, Jan 2026
anthony was a great deckhand . the way they handle the kayaks is a bit unwieldy. you have to wait while they load and unload. and with 20 ppl on board we were pushed around in small quarters. smaller groups would be easier on the boat. Laura doesn’t give the. best service. Did her entire education about the snorkel group where half of us could not here.

Super fun day with Danger Charters

Jessica_M, Dec 2025
Mary, Katie and Morgan know their stuff! After pulling out of the marina our Small group of 20 were offered fruit and drinks. We were educated about the reef, the history and flora and fauna. Thanks Karie for the lesson!!! We then Kayaked with Morgan around a mangrove island and saw a baby shark, a green sea turtle, many birds and fish. We then Snorkled at a beautiful spot on the reef with many diverse fish to see. Hummus, salsa and chips were served with beer wine and sodas. While enjoying our snacks a pod of dolphins were spotted and Mary our captain made sure to catch up they played right at the front of our boat! Great trip. Thanks for the memories!!!

Great for families, especially with kids 8+

Andrea_M, Dec 2025
Lovely time snorkeling and kayaking with friendly, knowledgeable guides who were good with kids and adults alike. Very laid back but with enough activity to keep everyone entertained. Guides Laura, Bible, and Micah were super attentive and great at running the whole experience.

Not the best choice for snorkeling

Saransh_A, Dec 2025
The snorkeling was pretty underwhelming. Just a couple bleached coral heads and a few schools of boring fish. The crew (Micah, Laura, Bible) were great! We had a lot of fun on the kayak tour. Again, not a whole lot to see apart from the outsides of mangroves and maybe a baby barracuda.

Amazing trip

Terri_H, Dec 2025
We had a blast! Katie, Josh and The Captain we all great and very personable. It was definitely a day we will always remember!

It was a great great...

Taraj_V, Dec 2025
It was a great great experience - everything that was promised was delivered. Kayaking through the mangroves, snorkeling in the sea and the sunset all were amazing! However, I would recommend this for someone who has already been to the Keys at least once.

Nice

Cindy_S, Dec 2025
It was good. The guides were nice and accommodating. Had a good time and it was a good beginners ride.
