Key Largo Coral Reef Snorkel Adventure

The experience was amazing and safe! I cannot recall the names of the two young ladies who drove us out to the reef, but they were knowledgeable, and more importantly, I felt safe with me and my son on board and in the water. I’m a mom that worries about everything. There is nothing anyone has to be worried about on this trip. Great experience! Highly recommend!

The crew and experience was fantastic! I highly recommend this to anyone!! Great snorkeling locations, knowledgeable & friendly crew, great music, and funny

Had an amazing experience with my brother and his family! Katie and Gabby really knew how to handle everything and everyone with grace, humor, and firmness, as needed. This gave us as a mixed crowd of kids and adults the order we needed to make the trip comfortable and pleasant. I feel like we have a valuable review to offer because a month ago our adult son wanted to do a snorkel excursion like this one as well, so that experience is still fresh on our minds as a comparison. Weather aside—yesterday we had perfect weather conditions which also makes a huge difference—this crew offered a more comfortable boat and much better snorkel equipment than the first company we used, plus the areas where we were taken yesterday had a lot more coral and sea life to view while also allowing us to experience encountering the Christ of the Abyss statue which I was extremely excited to see! I am new to snorkeling but was surprised how easy it actually was with nicer equipment and that I could still view the statue from the surface. I really appreciated the effort Katie and Gabby made to make sure we got the opportunity since it’s not always easily accessible. It was a long swim over but they gave us enough time to enjoy it and then took us to another spot, less crowded area, to enjoy a safe natural reef with plenty of life to enjoy. On our first trip, my husband came back with a bunch of cuts and bruises from being too close to a tower that used to be a light house, but that’s where all the coral and fish were—not near the boat itself. On this trip, the reef was directly underneath us and we were able to enjoy all of it without having to swim too far (except if you wanted to see the statue (which was still very doable). Since the other trip hosted both snorkelers and divers, it seems like the crew focused more on the divers than on the snorklers. But with this trip, everyone was snorkeling and even without any scuba gear my brother still got to see a giant 7-foot stingray and others spotted turtles and starfish besides the colorful schools of fish that were hard for anyone to miss. Unfortunately, I missed the stingray and turtles but it was because I spent a lot of time with my head out of the water watching the kids! (My mommy/aunty side couldn’t help kicking in). But even with that, I was impressed with what I saw and had an amazing time. I also would like to point out that this crew also was well equipped and provided reef safe sunscreen (the other excursion didn’t) , plenty of shaded seating areas to fit us all in (my son’s girlfriend got sick), a huge cooler for everyone to use if they brought snacks and drinks, and a giant dry box to store towels and extra clothes and whatnot. They had cold water for us to drink but keep in mind that it’s from those orange cooler tanks with tiny cone cups, not individual bottles, so you might want to bring your own bottles for that. All in all, I had to say that this trip turned out to be a 10/10 experience and a more beautiful and memorable day for us all for an even better price than the first trip!! Will be booking with them again in the future for sure!

Captain Katie and Scuba Joe provided an amazing trip to the reefs. Horseshoe Reef was an actual colorful, active reef, which is unfortunately often rare to see. We saw lots of large fish. I also like seeing that this reef is getting a lot of restoration. They also took us to dry rocks, which was also active. Captain Katie waited until boats cleared out to give us the beat experience. I like the company’s commitment to the environment.

Captain Amy and Nate the mate did a great job. Purchasing, checking in, signing waivers, etc was all a very easy process. The Captain was very forthcoming when we arrived that conditions were rough and we could refund and reschedule if not strong swimmers. She also recommended motion sickness meds. The water was rough and about 1/3 of the boat got super sick, so I would listen to her. Snorkeling was great! My two teens loved it. We stopped two places with tons of fish and Christ of the abyss. We also saw dolphins. We didn’t see turtles or sharks but they said it isn’t uncommon. Staff was attentive and fun! Overall it was a great experience!
