Embark on an unforgettable underwater adventure as we take you to some of the most stunning reefs within the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary and John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park! Our trips visit a variety of world-famous dive and snorkel sites, including Molasses Reef, Elbow Reef, French Reef, and the iconic Christ of the Abyss at Dry Rocks.
These protected reef sites are part of the third-largest living coral reef system in the world and the only living coral barrier reef in the United States. As you explore, keep an eye out for sea turtles, spotted eagle rays, moray eels, and a vibrant array of tropical fish that call these reefs home.
PLEASE NOTE: We do not guarantee any specific dive or snorkel site on our trips, and full-face masks are not permitted for safety reasons.
Snorkelers & Boat Riders – Join the Fun!
Not a diver? No problem! Whether you prefer to snorkel alongside the reef or relax on the sun deck, you’ll still be part of the adventure. Our reefs range from 20 to 45 feet deep, with high-profile coral formations bringing the marine life within 5 to 15 feet of the surface—perfect for snorkelers to enjoy the beauty of the underwater world up close.
