Cold and zero visibility. Also there is no blue water in key west. Take note the water is green and not clear
Response from Host, Dec 2023
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review, Nick. We regret that you did not enjoy your time out with us. Most guests enjoy the temperatures in the 70’s that we are graced with in December, and we do have wetsuits available to rent for those that wish to do so. The waters around Key West are a beautiful turquoise color and although we hope that every day is perfect, occasionally wind, waves, clouds or rain will affect underwater visibility. We hope to have the opportunity to take you out in the summer months when the temperatures are warmer!
Fun fun fun

One of the Highlights of Our Vacation
Rheanne_B, May 2023
Outstanding snorkel and kayak adventure! Our Captain, Stevie, showed us an amazing time on this trip. He noticed the weather in the normal spot looked like it was getting rainy so he asked the group if we minded changing the location so we would have a better trip, and he did not disappoint. We were able to get very close to multiple dolphins, went snorkeling in clear waters where we saw plenty of fish, manta rays, and barracuda, and then hit a large sand bar for kayaking and paddle boarding. The first mate Michael was knowledgeable too and served great drinks after the activities were complete. Then we saw a gorgeous Key West sunset as we made our way back to the harbor. A perfect afternoon and highly recommend booking this activity!
Response from Host, May 2023

The best experience!

On the Water
PHILIP_C, May 2023
It was good to get out on the water in Key West. Jude was a great captain, including his sense of humor. Be sure to bring your own towel, hat, and sun screen - otherwise you will subject to the pre-cruise shake down, which cost me a goodly sum. Everybody on the boat was friendly and everybody had a good time. I recommend this activity.
Response from Host, May 2023
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review, Philip. We're happy to hear your had a great time out there and especially appreciate the shoutout to Capt. Jude. We hope to see you again soon! Safe Travels!

Rap music is not liked by older people. Also, not taken to advertised locations. Younger crowd, friends of boat caption, more interested in celebrating his birthday.
