Snorkeling Tour Services Of Key West

Located at 3706 N Roosevelt Blvd in Key West, this service acts as a central hub for those looking to explore the marine environments of the Florida Keys. Whether you are looking for a relaxed afternoon on a sailing vessel or a more structured excursion, the operation covers a wide spectrum of maritime activities.

The centre specialises in providing access to the local reefs through a variety of vessel types. From the classic feel of a 65-foot wooden schooner to the stability of a 68-foot catamaran, the fleet is designed to suit different preferences for your time on the water.

The team operates with a focus on concierge-style service, ensuring that your excursion is organised around your specific interests, whether that involves wildlife encounters or themed social tours. All trips are conducted with a focus on equipment quality and passenger comfort.

While the centre offers a range of activities, they also provide Snuba training for those who want to experience the underwater environment with more buoyancy control than traditional snorkeling allows, but without the full commitment of a scuba certification.

The centre provides Snuba instruction, which serves as an excellent middle ground between surface snorkelling and full scuba diving. This allows you to explore the reef with a breathing apparatus in a controlled, easy-to-manage way.

The fleet is diverse, featuring the Appledore Star, a 65-foot traditional wooden schooner perfect for those seeking a classic sailing experience. For larger groups or those preferring modern stability, the 68-foot catamaran offers a spacious platform for exploring the reef.

Specific vessels, such as the Shumba, are customised for dolphin encounters, allowing for closer proximity to these animals in a controlled manner. For social excursions like the Rum and Reggae tour, the boats provide a relaxed atmosphere with music and refreshments.

Onboard amenities vary by vessel but often include a bimini top for shade. Depending on your chosen tour, lunch is provided, featuring items such as fresh shrimp, fried chicken, sandwiches, and various fruits. Drinks can include beer, homemade sangria, wine, sodas, water, and unlimited rum punch on specific themed trips.

Snorkeling equipment is available for hire to ensure you have the necessary kit for your excursion. This includes masks, fins, and snorkels, allowing you to focus on the marine life rather than your gear.

The reefs are home to a variety of resident species, including various reef fish and frequent visits from wild dolphins. These pelagics and reef dwellers make the local waters a constant point of interest for anyone on the water.

The underwater scenery is defined by the living coral structures that form the backbone of the Key West reef system, providing a complex habitat for the local marine community.
