An amazing snorkeling trip for a family! - We had an amazing time snorkeling! The length of the trip was perfect, and Captain Aaron was fantastic. He made sure we felt prepared and confident, while also keeping the experience fun and relaxed. I would absolutely recommend this to anyone—such a fun afternoon!

Great experience - The captain and crew were really good. The boat was nice and safe. I was really excited to see Christ of the Sea statue but we didn’t go there. At first I was disappointed but the views at the other spot were really nice. We saw a nice variety of fish and even two sharks. I would definitely go again.

Great family snorkel trip - Our family really enjoyed the two site snorkel trip with Jeff and Jolisa on the Calypso. The water was a bit rough but they made sure we were all comfortable and got us to the Christ statue. So worth it. Our daughter was a little uncertain at first and decided to give it another go for the 2nd stop. She was not disappointed. The boat and crew were amazing and we have a great experience overall.

Great snorkeling trip - Friendly, informative, entertaining staff. Both snorkeling site were awesome and we were able to see a lot of different reef fish and the Jesus statue. We will definitely book again with them the next time we are in key largo.

Great company, captain, first mate, equipment, and "entertaining" ride to reef. - Excellent company from reservation from boat ride, to reef, to captain jokes, and first mates instructions.

Spectacular spring break adventure - If six stars was available, I would go straight to seven. Erin and Michael were so great as captain and first mate, jokes and all. The snorkeling tour was so fun, there was so much to see! It’s evident that these people actually care about their jobs, especially when it comes to people and safety! I highly recommend coming here if you are by key largo. Maybe if you’re lucky, you’ll see a hammerhead shark in the wild like we did! Everything said, great trip, great people, great vibes.

Beautiful water, knowledgeable staff. Their focus on being tipped was overkill. - We went as a family and the weather was beautiful with breathtaking water. The first stop had pretty rough waters which made snorkeling for a newbie a bit challenging. The second stop was calmer but with not as many interesting things to see. The captain and first mate were both friendly and focused on everyone’s safety and enjoyment. It was off putting how they urged at both the beginning and the ending of the trip about tipping them. Once would have gotten the point across.
