Travelers

The deck smells of salt and diesel as the boat eases away from the Caribbean Club dock; sunlight tattoos the water and a steady trade wind pulls the morning into motion. Fishermen and families trade quiet instructions with the captain—lines rigged, snorkel masks checked—while the Atlantic unfurls blue and very deep beyond the mangrove-lined channels. On a full-day charter with Let It Ride, you’re not just riding out to sea; you’re stepping into an ecosystem that alternates between calm backcountry flats and the open, restless reef.

Adventure Tips

Sun protection is mandatory

Bring reef-safe sunscreen and a wide-brim hat—shade on the boat is limited and Florida sun intensifies on the water.

Motion-sickness prep

If you’re prone to seasickness, take medication before boarding and pick a mid-boat seat near the centerline for a steadier ride.

Bring a dry bag

Use a small dry bag for phones, cameras, and any spare layers—spray and splashes are constant.

Label your catch

If you plan to keep seafood, bring a cooler or confirm the crew will pack and fillet your fish and lobsters for transport.

History

Key Largo evolved from fishing hamlet to dive destination after early 20th-century sponge and commercial fishing industries gave way to recreational diving in the 1950s.

Conservation

The Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary protects many reef areas—respect no-take zones, follow lobster and bag limits, and always use reef-safe sunscreen.
