Very professional operation. Everything was clearly explained and then everything happened just as it was explained. There was plenty of water and drinks available. There is some shade on the boat for those of us not wanting too much sun. The crew did very well taking care of us.

The crew was WONDERFUL - knowledgeable, fun, quick to make sure we were having a great time. Kayaked around the mangroves and saw lots of birds, horseshoe crab, and sea turtles. Snorkeled for a bit and saw several small fish, lobster, and sponges. Snacks and COLD drinks were great!

Anne and her awesome crew, Conner and Cohen. They were so kind and courteous. We had a blast kayaking and snorkeling. Well to be honest we floated by the boat and enjoyed the ocean. They went above and beyond to make everyone feel good. Anne was an excellent boat captain. I highly recommend this activity.

Snorkeling in deeper water which can be very difficult everyone should be in relatively good shape before they take on this experience.
Rebecca_R, Jul 2026
I took this excursion with my teenager. We both had a great time. I hadn’t snorkeled in a long time and appreciated the instructions to refresh my memory. The crew showed us a good time, kept us hydrated, brought out snacks, and pointed out interesting bits of information. This was one of the highlights of our trip overall. I would do it again in a heartbeat if we’re ever back this way!
Neil_R, Jun 2026
Easy paced fun & adventure, really helpful & knowledgeable crew, drinks & snacks onboard. Loved the sunset
Casey_H, Jun 2026
The crew was amazing and very knowledgeable! We had the best time. We definitely recommend it and would do it again!
Melissa_P, Jun 2026
We did the sunset trip and would absolutely recommend. The crew, Micah, Anthony and Laura were fantastic. Attentive, kind and amazingly knowledgeable. The snorkeling was great- lots of different fish. While kayaking we saw a turtle, sharks, and many birds. Laura’s enthusiasm and tons of facts were very impressive. We had a great time. Sunset was beautiful.

We primarily booked this all for snorkeling and kayaking. Love being in the water. I'm not sure why we had to stop and hear a story about silly some made up history. I would sign up for a history tour if that was the case. But our family wants to be in the water. The story should be optional for people staying on the boat.
Response from Host, Jun 2026
Thank you for sailing with us and for taking the time to share this review! I’m sorry the short history portion on the sail out didn’t add to the experience for your family.
Our crew gives that brief talk as a way to break up the ride and give guests more context about the waters and islands where we snorkel and kayak. The history shared is real Keys history, presented in a light and entertaining way! It’s usually a favorite part of the trip, but we completely understand that your family was most excited to be in the water.
Just to clarify, that portion of the trip does not take away from snorkel or kayak time. Our trip is planned with about an hour of snorkeling and about an hour of kayaking. That said, we appreciate your feedback!

This was a wonderful experience with a hard working Captain and Crew.
They went out of their way to make it memorable, through the snorkeling, kayaking and onboard drink and snacks.
Chad_M, Jun 2026
Great experience for first time parasailers. Me and my 11 yo son went. Bring/wear sunscreen, there is no shade and you’re in the sun for an hour. Wyatt (first mate) did a great job of our photos. Money was worth the memories.

If you only do one thing in Key West, make it this. The crew is exceptional. They weave history, nature, and fun. The snacks and drinks were great, the snorkeling was so amazing. They took us to a gorgeous spot. I loved how knowledgeable the crew was and genuinely they clearly care about the environment (picking up trash when they see it in the ocean, genuinely excited when seeing a sea creature or bird and giving info about each.) The crew seemed to truly enjoy what they do and that was really infectious.
Amy_S, Jun 2026
Can’t say enough positive things about this water adventure. Captain Anna and her crew were kind, very willing to share knowledge, and hilarious. They were patient with us novices as we navigated new experiences, like snorkeling and kayaking, and honored the expertise of other travelers with plenty of water sports experience. The boat was comfortable, snacks were yummy, and the sunset was breathtaking. Loved every minute!
Joshua_H, Jun 2026
Our trip was fantastic! The entire crew were top notch! We highly recommended this trip and company!
Andria_C, Jun 2026
A lovely morning on the water with a friendly and informative crew. We really enjoyed the schooner experience - everything was clean and well maintained, we felt very safe and well taken care of from start to finish.
Stephanie_R, Jun 2026
This was the first time both my husband and I have ever been sailing. It was a great time! Micah, Trevor, and Carly provided the best hospitality and was full of so much history. We learned a lot of about Key West, the animal life, and much more. We snorkeled and saw sponges and different kinds of fish. Then we kayaked around a mangrove which provided a chance to see a shark and sea turtle. Alas, we sailed back to see a beautiful sunset. We will definitely be back again to do another danger sail!
Mike_B, Jun 2026
Great fun, saw lots of fish snorkeling and cool wildlife on the mangroves kayak trip. Captain Mary, Connor and Katie were great guides.
Sarah, Jun 2026
Great experience - the crew was accommodating and helpful. They made sure we had the best opportunity to see wildlife and have a successful trip. I would 100% use them again to book an outing.
Stephanie_H, Jun 2026
It was amazing. It was our first time sailing, and the tour guides were wonderful. Kayaking around the mangroves was so much fun. And the sunset was so beautiful.

The whole team ( Danni, Mary and .... a very nice guy also whose name is escaping me ) were very fun and provided lots of education on the history of key west and waterline, they made sure everyone was well taken care of and having the best time possible. The tide was low so kayaking was pivoted from the mangroves to the flats which was in my opinion way cooler cause we got to see and hold a TON of creatures including conch, sea urchin, star fish, sea cucumber, serpent starfish, and I can't even recall the rest... Dani is fearless exploring the waters and so fun. It felt like an adventure. The sunset cruise back was beautiful and relaxing. Everyone on the boat got to know each other taking photos and conversations. It was very laid back vibes and I attribute that to the staff leading the way. Would do again!
Elizabeth_M, Jun 2026
Wonderful crew and great value. Everyone on the excursion with us enjoyed the experience and would use this charter again.
Joy_D, Jun 2026
It was a really fun activity. I particularly liked that they had snorkeling and kayaking. Plus a fun sail out to a reef. The crew was very nice and knowledgeable. They were always asking if we wanted another drink or more water. This might be the first time on a snorkeling trip where they offered “noodles“ it really helps when you’re snorkeling. We certainly recommend this trip.
Nicole_P, May 2026
The experience was great from start to finish. The crew was knowledgeable and had a lot of interesting information to share throughout the day. It’s also a locally owned business which was a nice find. Would absolutely do this again!
Benjamin_T, May 2026
Amazing evening on the water. The crew was outstanding and I felt like I was taken care of the whole time.
...and, we saw some sea turtles, which was super cool
Emily_M, May 2026
Highly recommend the half day snokle, kayak, and sunset cruise. It was such an amazing day with loads of fun!
Pamela_K, May 2026
Brad, Trevor & Lexy did a TREMENDOUS job on everything from the history, snacks to activities. We saw dolphins multiple times, Manatee(5) and the MOST brilliant sunset. Their humor & personal attention made our trip! Thank you!
Alyssa_E, May 2026
This was the highlight of our trip to the Keys! Snorkeling on a beautiful reef, kayaking through the Mangroves, and then a beautiful sunset to end the day. The captain and crew were so knowledgeable and eager to help and answer questions. If you're looking for a low-key adventure for your vacation, look no further!
Aneta_G, May 2026
Relaxing, no rush, phenomenal crew, extremely enjoyable. Perfect for singles and couples. Other places like Sunset Co. or Fury is so commercial, robotic, everything must be done their way,otherwise you are out.This company is different, noone is loud, crew is polite, sweet and funny, they leave you alone to relax. Anna, the captain, Kayla and Trevor are so down to earth. No rush to do anything, we were sailing for 5 hours, awesome!
Brian_B, May 2026
Great experience with Anna, Kylie and Morgan. They were great host and it was such a pleasure to be sailing with them. We saw dolphins, conch and a great kayak trip. Highly highly highly recommend.
DominiquePease, May 2026
Anna and her crew went above and beyond to make the most of our experience. Loved the light hearted mood, learning the history of the keys and floating on a pool noodle in the Atlantic. Watching the sunset at the end topped off a perfect, relaxing afternoon!
