Traveler reviews
Sandbar and snorkeling just north of key largo.
KB was our guide and he was awesome. He was very accommodating and the boat wasn’t super busy. We got to go to the sandbar and snorkel with all the equipment included. Beautiful views and lots of fun. Water was a bit murky for snorkeling but still was worth it to see all the fishes. Tip: when you arrive go to the yellow building and park and the “Hidden Key” where you check in really is hidden. But the dock should be visible, just follow the address it gives you.
Would book again!!!
10/10. Absolutely loved the experience, very personable matched our energy and helped us out with the gear. The price was insanely cheap for the experience. Got there at 1030am and left around 1pm definitely had a great time wouldn’t want to book with anyone else :)
Great crew, unfortunately what is sold on TripAdvisor's page and what crew was hired for were not remotely the same trip
Booked to snorkel US's only narural reef and an ocean sandbar. Were taken into a bay area, not far from marina, by mangrove to snorkel and only when asked about sandbar were we taken somewhere else. Was taken to brackish bay area to shallows next to roadway. Crew was fabulous, trip was not. Boat stalled returning to marina. Fortunately i own Heavy Duty Diesel repair business so even with screwdrivers and a couple small wrenches, my husband and son quickly located problem, resolved it but needed starting fluid to get boat running, had none...finally passetby on boat took captain to matina for some, my family got boat running and headed back. Crew refused tips ftom guests but i tossed tip from our family onto boat just before getting in car. The issues of the adventure were not the crews fault and they did a great job regardless.
Do not Book
If I could put 0 stars I would. Let me start out by saying this was the worst excursion ive ever taken in my entire life and ive taken many. You DONT go to a coral reef like described in the details. They will take you to shallow MURKY water and you snorkel to ONE location and cant see a thing. Not worth snorkeling. Also the crew is “nice” but they were definitely not a host of anything. Also we accidentally bought duplicate booking for 3 ppl and the manager Max told my sister over the phone she would receive a refund just to find out viator said they could not issue one bc owner refused. By far the crappiest customer service we have ever received. Please DO NOT BOOK
Go further south
The ad says that they will take you out to the coral. They do not. You go a few minutes out in the sound and have about 20 minutes to snorkel in shallow grassy water next to the mangroves. Next you don't go to a real sandbar, you head a few more minutes to a shallow area next to the highways and have about another 20 minutes to swim. Which you could just pull over in your car and do for free. Beers are also 11 dollars a piece and a few is added at the end. 54 dollars for 4 cans of beer. Drive another 10 minutes down to the nature preserve and enjoy the actual reef unrushed.
