You only need to put down a 25% deposit to lock in your spot, paying the rest after you've had your fill of underwater adventures.

Dive Brief & Gear Info

Before we hit the water, let's talk gear and logistics. Divers, make sure to bring proof of your highest certification – your digital or physical card will do. We'll hook you up with tanks and weights, but if you need any other gear, just let us know when you book. Snorkelers, while we provide the essentials, you might want to bring your own mask and fins for the perfect fit. Once we're out on the water, we'll give you the lowdown on the dive site, covering depth, currents, and any cool features to look out for. Our experienced crew will be there to help you gear up and answer any last-minute questions. And don't worry about getting parched – we've got snacks and water on board to keep you fueled between dives.

Marine Life You'll See

Key Largo's waters are teeming with colorful and fascinating marine life. Here's a taste of what you might encounter on your dive or snorkel:

Goliath Grouper: These gentle giants can grow up to 8 feet long and weigh over 700 pounds. They're curious creatures that often hang around wrecks and reefs. While they might look intimidating, they're actually quite docile and make for incredible photo opportunities. Best spotted year-round, but you'll see more during their spawning season in late summer and early fall.

Spotted Eagle Ray: With their distinctive white-spotted backs and long, whip-like tails, spotted eagle rays are a favorite among divers. These graceful swimmers can often be seen gliding through the water or feeding on the sandy bottom. They're most common in the warmer months but can be spotted year-round if you're lucky.

Hawksbill Sea Turtle: These critically endangered sea turtles are a special sight on any dive. Known for their beautiful shell patterns and hawk-like beaks, they're often seen munching on sponges around the reefs. They're relatively small compared to other sea turtles, usually about 2-3 feet in length. Keep an eye out for them year-round, but remember – look, don't touch!

Nurse Shark: Don't let the word "shark" scare you – nurse sharks are among the most docile shark species. These bottom-dwellers can grow up to 14 feet long but are usually seen around 6-8 feet. They're often found resting on the sandy bottom or in crevices of reefs and wrecks. While they're around all year, you might see more during their mating season in late spring and early summer.

Dive Site Highlights

While we can't guarantee specific sites (we choose based on conditions and the group's experience level), here are a few Key Largo favorites you might get to explore:

Christ of the Abyss: This famous 9-foot bronze statue sits in about 25 feet of water, surrounded by coral formations. It's a favorite for both divers and snorkelers, offering great photo ops and usually teeming with tropical fish.

Molasses Reef: One of the most popular dive sites in the Keys, Molasses Reef offers a bit of everything – vibrant coral, abundant fish life, and even some small wrecks. With depths ranging from 10 to 70 feet, it's suitable for various skill levels.

USS Spiegel Grove: For our more advanced divers, this 510-foot former Navy ship is an incredible artificial reef. Intentionally sunk in 2002, it's now home to a diverse array of marine life. The top of the wreck sits at about 60 feet, making it accessible for intermediate divers.
