  • The Dry Tortugas National Park is one of the most amazing places on earth. Situated 70 miles from Key West it is secluded from most of the pressures of human development. The water is crystal clear and the coral reefs are unbelievable. Some of the coral structures rise 50ft from the bottom straight up.
  • Fish life is everywhere and there are species you will only find inside the park. We have one of the few permits to be able to dive or snorkel inside the National Park, and will safely take you and your dive buddies to sites you could never forget.
  • Some of the sites we visit are the Maze, Windjammer wreck, and Texas Rock, just to name a few. With the ability to explore the Fort during part of our entire day adventure you will be taken back through history and can imagine just how wonderful Fort Jefferson really is.
  • No adventure is the same so the structure of this trip can change based on the conditions. Typically we do an on-island exploration session and try for 3 dive or snorkel sites before we make our way home. The 3rd dive is depending on timing during the trip. Our boat ride each way is 2 hours making the Dry Tortugas one of the most inaccessible national parks in the country. *Please note: If spearguns are added all spearfishing will be done after any tour and outside of the park.
  • This charter typically lasts 10 hours and is an all-day adventure. Lunch is provided as well as snacks. It is an unforgettable experience that you will cherish for a lifetime.
