And, no worries if you’ve never kayaked before; our kayaks are very stable sea kayaks that novices from ages 6 to 90 and beyond can easily paddle with a few simple instructions from your guide.

This was the best tour I did while in Key West, the staff from the lady’s in the shop for check in to the captain and crew were friendly fun and very good at their job. The boat is well maintained and also looks beautiful as an older type sailing ship. We were met at the shop by the captain who walked us over to the boat, got onboard had a safety briefing and got under way, the crew made sure to pass around the water as it was a hot day. We sailed straight away rather than just using the engine which I think always looks better, and headed out for the snorkeling. Some of the equipment is a bit old but after a change and some fine tuning it was ok and there was quite a bit to see, I saw sponges many fish and an octopus. Then returned to the boat and floated for a while just chatting with the other guests and crew. Then we went over to the kayaking place and quickly got placed in our boats and set off. It was a well organized loading and no slip ups which was incredible! We then set off going around the island in 2 groups 1 went clockwise and the other counter so you weren’t waiting for the others to get back. Again we saw a lot and the crew knew all the information about the animals and history of the area. Then it was back to the boat and a sunset cruise back to harbor. Captain Joe, Brad and Olivia were brilliant through out the trip and I highly recommend using this company to anyone. There was a very nervous lady on board and they managed to take her through all the activities so that everyone enjoyed them and got their monies worth.

The entire experience was wonderful. Bronso and Rose were an amazing crew. Rose shared information, history and facts about what we were seeing throughout the trip. We had a good time snorkeling, saw plenty of lobster and other fish. The kayak trip through the mangroves was especially amazing. We would more than recommend this trip to anyone visiting Key West.
