Morning light slices across Biscayne Bay as the 26' SeaRay eases from the dock and the city silhouette slides astern. The engine hum is steady; the sea ahead dares you to trade concrete for current. In three hours you’ll hop between shallow reef patches and sandy flats, fins kicking through water that moves your shadow and reveals parrotfish, sergeant majors, and swaths of branching coral.
