Breathtaking Florida Keys Reef Snorkel: Half-Day Journey
No address available
Come join us snorkeling some of the most beautiful reefs within the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary and Pennekamp State Park. We have many possible reefs to explore: Molasses, Elbow, French Reef and the famous Christ of the Abyss on Dry Rocks. These protected areas offer an opportunity to see turtles, spotted eagle rays, moray eels and a variety of different fish. These special reefs are part of the 3rd largest living reef system in the world and the ONLY living coral reef in the US. We stop at two different locations on the reef. Each stop is determined by the captain based on the day's conditions. We cannot guarantee any specific site. We also offer scuba diving on our trips. In an effort to reduce the amount of single-use plastic that ends up in our oceans, we recommend bringing a reusable water bottle. We have water coolers in our shop and on our boats for your convenience!

The crew brought a fun element to this excursion. We went to two sites and saw so much. The water was clear and there was great visibility. Tons of fish, many barracuda, a sting ray, the sunken statue, etc. The gear was nice too and they spray anti fogging stuff in your goggles. I never had that before and what a difference it makes! They also offer noodles just in case to help you float. I am a good swimmer but did enjoy using the noodle. You definitely are not rushed at either site. We only had 8 people on this tour so it was so enjoyable and small. The perk of going after the holiday once everyone left. They'll also help tell you where to go in the keys if you need any recommendations. And to that, Capt Brad, we got into Frank's Grill the same night and it was fantastic! Appreciate the recommendation!!! I recommend this excursion.

Made a day trip from Bonita Springs to celebrate Thanksgiving. Had a nice lunch at Reefhouse before going on Snorkeling excursion. Brad and Liber gave us an awesome Key Largo Snorkeling experience! Would highly recommend.

Wow, what a fabulous and fun experience! Captain Brad, Nate and Murphy provided both an educational, funny and entertaining experience. They had us laughing the entire time. We took our 9 and 11 year old daughters and they were so good with our girls helping them gear up and understand how to use the equipment. We saw dolphins on the boat ride out and plenty of varieties and sea life during the snorkeling. If you’re looking for a reputable crew that will both educate and entertain, look no further. Book it, you won’t regret this experience!

Went out with my teenage son and we had a fantastic morning and saw abundant sea life and Christ of the Deep while visiting two different reefs.

If you have $75 and are comfortable swimming 10-30 yards from a boat and snorkeling in the ocean, it's hard to go wrong. Katie and Liber were our guides on this lovely afternoon trip from Key Largo. Keep in mind that the wind and ocean waves and visibility vary along with the health of coral reefs. This said, Katie and Liber took care of us, were safe. fun and professional. Conditions were good, we saw small Barracuda sharks, Rainbow Parrot, Rainbow Clown fish, and about a dozen other beautiful tropical varieties on the reefs. Go snorkel.

Captain Katie, Liber, and the whole crew were great! Fantastic time exploring two reefs saw a ton of fish and some sharks. Well worth the cost of admission. We had snorkelers and divers on the trip, and they took care of us all.

We went out with captain Patricia and first mate Janice, and they were awesome!! They were knowledgeable about what they were doing, kept safety first, and gave information about the areas we snorkled. They knew what to look for, how to find it, and told us what to expect. It was a great day out there with them. I highly recommend it! PS- don't go if you don't know how to swim!
