Professional, relaxing, and FUN! Took my wife and parents on a late December half-day snorkel excursion aboard the Marquesa, crewed by Captain Eric, Carol, Vaughn, and Dominic, and we could not have been happier. Crew was energetic, personable, generous with the complimentary beer/wine/sodas/orange slices, and seemed to truly be focused on everyone having a great time while staying safe.
We ultimately selected Sebago based on reviews, price, and, maybe most importantly, a statement on their website: “Sebago limits the number of passengers to give you plenty of room in the sun or shade.” As it turns out, ‘limited passengers’ is a relative term as we shared the 69’ catamaran with 81 passengers. Although slightly disheartening at first, once complete with the initial safety brief and underway, the huge vessel felt far less crowded, and the crew was more than capable of herding the pack to ensure maximum snorkel time.
While the reef was spectacular and an absolute Key West “must see,” the crew was truly the reason I’d recommend Sebago to anyone in search of an affordable snorkel trip. Whether giving an energetic snorkel how-to, local food recommendations, marine life instruction, or helping my mom out with a slight case of sea sickness, every crew member made a point of connecting with my family and me.
If you’re looking for a Key West snorkel trip, look no further: Sebago is the one for you!
