Exploring Key West Waters
When you're not admiring the waters that surround Key West from the beach, enjoy them from the deck of a boat. Several companies offer sailing, snorkeling, and kayaking tours, not to mention sunset cruises and fishing charters. Popular providers like Danger Charters, Classic Harbor Line Key West, and Sebago Key West receive favorable reviews from recent travelers. There's also a variety of tours specifically designed for dolphin watching, as the Florida Keys are home to bottlenose dolphins year-round, along with six other dolphin species passing through the area.
Snorkeling and Kayaking Adventures
If you sign up for a snorkeling tour, you'll likely be taken to the Florida Keys Reef – the only living coral barrier reef in North America. Located approximately 6 miles off the coast of Key West, the reef offers shallow waters that are ideal for beginners. For those who prefer staying above water, kayaking tours offer a chance to paddle through the uninhabited mangrove islands in the Key West National Wildlife Refuge.
Hours and Pricing
Depending on the company you choose, tours can range from half-day (2-3 hours) to full-day (up to 6 hours) excursions, and most include beverages and light snacks. Tour prices vary by company, but you can expect to pay at least $40 per person, with prices fluctuating based on the time of day and length of the tour.
