Our experienced captains grew up on these waters and make a living at taking our guests to the best snorkeling and dolphin watching locations. This is what they do for a living and they are really good at it. Keep in mind that the locations depend on the duration of your trip and the type of boat you select. Pontoon and deck boats cannot make it out to the reef to snorkel as that location is 6-8 miles off-shore, but we do have some gorgeous patch reef locations on the Gulf of Mexico side that are full of vibrant color fish. If you want to go to the deep water reef you will need to select a center console boat such as the Key West or Nautic Star. Additionally, note that the duration you select will restrict us from taking you to certain locations as well. A 4 hour charter will not have the ability to do more than 2 activities. We always recommend booking the full day charter as this allows us to spend the most time at the destinations of your choice!

Each charter is completely customizable for you! The amount of activities that you can do completely rely on the duration you choose. If you select a half day charter you can select 2 activities. If you select a full day charter you can select up to 3 different activities.
