Egmont Key, Florida—where blue Gulf water meets shallow reefs—serves as the backdrop for a high-octane snorkel day launched from Bradenton. The Jet Ski Snorkel Tour runs every Sunday and packs speed, access, and shallow reef diving into a compact four-hour window. Riders take off on modern Sea-Doo machines (2025 Sea-Doo GTI SE 130 and 2025 Sea-Doo Spark Trixx are available) and run across open water to the sand-fringed island and surrounding coral outcrops. Once anchored near the reef, guides hand out snorkel gear included for the 10am–1pm window and the water becomes the main event: finger corals, patch reefs, and the darting shapes of tropical fish lay out as close as your mask. What sets this outing apart is the method of approach. Instead of a slow charter, the jet skis turn the transit into part of the adventure, giving small groups direct access to reef edges that larger boats can’t reach. The tour is designed for pairs—each ski holds two adults or two adults and one small child—with six skis offered on a given day. You must book the full four hours; $800 per ski secures the machine and two riders. Drivers need to be 18 to rent (14 may drive with a guardian), and organizers ask participants to arrive 15 minutes before departure. Expect a mix of adrenaline and mellow snorkeling: watch for shallow limestone and coral formations, sea grass flats, and frequent dolphin activity along the approach. The site’s clear water delivers visibility that rewards surface swimmers and underwater photographers; it also protects nesting ground for local turtles at certain times of year. Guides balance exploration with conservation briefings—no-touch rules and reef-safe sunscreen are emphasized. Practical notes matter: the included snorkel kit covers the active swim window only, so bring a compact dry bag and a change of clothes. Weather and sea state determine final plans; operators will adjust routes for safety. For connecting travel, Bradenton serves as the closest launching town and base for lodging, provisioning, and post-tour meals. This outing is for people who want speed, skill, and snorkel time rolled into one accessible Gulf experience. If you like the idea of piloting a modern Sea-Doo, watching dolphins break the wake, and getting out among nearshore reefs without a long boat ride, this Jet Ski Snorkel Tour delivers a focused, sensory-rich Gulf day that's short on transit and long on water time. Bring biodegradable sunscreen, a lightweight rash guard for sun protection, and a small waterproof camera or action-cam to capture reef life; operators can assist with basic tips for shooting from the ski or in the water. Advance bookings fill quickly in peak season—reserve early to lock in a specific ski.
