Lots of time to explore...

Dawn_P, Apr 2024

Lots of time to explore the reef. Don’t forget to apply sunscreen to your back between snorkels :) The crew was great.

Snorkle trip from hell!!!

Ronnie_L, Mar 2024

They put us on a dive boat that was clearly for scuba divers not snorklers-very little room and the focus was on the divers. The ocean was very rough and we rode way out to where we saw no land and stopped at a reef-the boat was rocking back and forth violently and I was watching the horizon to keep from getting sick. I decided to get off the boat and snorkle as that might be less nauseating but the water was extremely rough and felt dangerous. 3 snorkelers were sick-I then spent the rest of the trip staring at the horizon and willing myself not to throw up like the two people next to me. The trip lasted over 4 1/2 hours when it was supposed to be a bit over 3-I have snorkled many places over many years but this trip was hell. I was sick that whole evening and the next day. DON'T BOOK on THEM

Response from Host, Mar 2024

Ronnie, I am sorry to hear that you did not enjoy your trip with us. I would like to address your concerns and provide a bit of context. -The trip you were on had a total of 31 passengers. 15 snorkelers and 16 divers. That ratio does not seem to support your statement that the boat was clearly for scuba divers not snorkelers. -The ocean conditions were 2 foot rolling seas with occasional 3 foot waves on the reef. Those conditions are well within the range that every single snorkeling operation in the state of Florida will operate in and take snorkeleres out in. The two sites visited: Banana Patch and Christ of the Abyss Statue are located approximately 6 miles offshore, at which distance, land is still very clearly visible. -Any boat anchored or moored in water that is not flat calm will experience rocking back and forth. 2 - 3 foot seas do not produce violent rocking. - 2 - 3 foot rolling seas are definitely potentially dangerous if you do not possess basic conditioning and swimming skills. The liability waiver that every single passenger signs, including you and your spouse, before stepping on the boat states: "always dive/snorkel within my training, certification, experience, comfort and ability", as well as, "I understand that scuba/snorkeling is a physically strenuous activity and that I will be exerting myself during this diving/snorkeling excursion". If the water appeared very rough and dangerous to you, I wonder why you still decided to enter it. - You are correct, 3 snorkelers did get sick. This is spring break in a very popular tourist destination. We have many visitors that are do not spend time on boats and get seasick. A total of 3 passengers getting sick out of 31 on board is a phenomenal indicator of how manageable the seas actually were. On rough water days, #1, we do not take snorkelers out at all, and #2 if more than 1/2 of the guests on board are ill, we know that it's rough. - The trip you were on departed the dock at 123pm and returned to the dock at 544pm. That is 4 hours and 21 minutes. I am not attempting to be pedantic, I am attempting to be very accurate since several of your statements about us have been somewhat sensationalized. The site you booked on stated the tour duration as APPROXIMATELY 3.5 hours, you got an extra 51 minutes of a trip for no additional charge. You asked in the shop during check in what time the trip would return and you were told that we are typically back on the dock by 5 - 530pm depending on how far out we had to go to find good conditions. We took the trip 7 minutes further away than usual to find those good conditions so it took an extra 14 minutes to get out there and get back. - If you were sick the whole evening and the next day, it sounds like you had an issue going on that was not caused by your trip with us as seasickness typically ceases almost immediately after returning to land. We genuinely are sorry that you did not enjoy your trip with us as we want everyone who comes out to have a phenomenal time AND we know that we can't please everyone in spite of our absolute best efforts. Some people will find reasons to be unhappy or unpleasant no matter what we do for them and we choose to spend our energy and focus on the guests who want to allow us to please them. We wish you and your husband all the best and will absolutely understand why you will choose a different operator the next time you visit the Keys!

Must do!

Briana_P, Jan 2024

The crew members were fantastic. They were very helpful for first time snorkelers like myself. They had all the equipment you would need. This was an amazing experience, the views underwater were unmatched. This is a must do if you want to snorkel!

Unforgettable experience

Darlene_F, Dec 2023

What an unforgettable experience. First off, the crew and captain were awesome. Captain Brad and Matt are the 2 names I remember. First time on a snorkel cruise were we saw SHARKS!!! So amazing. I saw 3 reef sharks and 1 nurse shark. Saw a few barracuda and a cute young sea turtle. And of course lots and lots of fish. I will use them again when I come back to key largo.

Sea sickness

Thomas_C, Oct 2023

I am sure it is a good trip and a 4 star rate if the weather is calm. On this trip onfortunally it was a lot of waves and a some sea sickness. Very nice staff though!

Cancelled

Danielle_B, Sep 2023

Cancelled tour due to weather but luckily found another boat going out , gorgeous weather to snorkel

Response from Host, Sep 2023

Hi Danielle, I am sorry that we cancelled your reservation. The weather on the weekend of 9/3 was back and forth. We ended up doing a "1 and done" on our dive boat on the second when the wind picked up, and for customer safety we decided to cancel snorkelers for the 3rd. The weather is certainly tough to predict at times, which is why we errored on the side of safety and cancelled and refunded our snorkelers. I am however, happy that you found someone and have a great time. I apologize it was not with us... we of course do our best to check weather and make educated calls.

FAMILY FUN

Jen_B, Jul 2023

The crew made this excursion a very fun and safe adventure! We enjoyed two beautiful areas of snorkeling!

Awesome time!

Kimberly_R, Jul 2023

Awesome staff! Amazing time! Watch out for those jellyfish! The water was gorgeous, the views were stunning! The staff was really great!

Response from Host, Jul 2023

Yay! we are so happy that you enjoyed your interactions with our world class staff and crew! Those pesky jellies showed up WAY earlier this year than usual thanks to skyrocketing ocean temperatures and some funky currents. We would love to see you agian on your next trip, even if you just pop in and say hi!

One kid from Texas rescue...

John_F, May 2023

One kid from Texas rescue swimmer or first mate I think, was the best. Focused and friendly. The whole crew was good, but he never lost focus of the task at hand, keeping the guests safe. Because of his skill and demeanor i truly recommend this tour

Great experience

Jessica_O, May 2023

Very nice guys, good snorkel spot and nice not too big boat and small group. Enjoyed it very much. We had grandma with us and they had this floating thing she could hold on to for a normal swim. She loved it.
