    A fun and relaxing way to enjoy a sunset. Shoutout to the crew—Carly, Daniel and the guy with the great hair for their amazing hospitality! The beverages and light hors d'oeuvres were good—(shrimp cocktail, crab dip, bruschetta spear and a mini key lime pie tart). The musician, Tim, was engaging and fun. The entire crew, including the musician, created a really fun and energetic vibe!

    I went on this tour for the second time. Mangrove forest is magic. This is perhaps the best thing to do in Key West. Ellen is a great guide.

    Great day. The seas were rough so the snorkeling was not great but we don't have control of the seas. The crew was very helpful and one of them saved my friends who were struggling in the rough water. All and all good day.

    The trip was great. Going on the sandbar cruise was the best part of our trip. The crew was excellent and fun. I highly recommend this excursion.

    Great sail with Brandon and Brett! Relaxing, beautiful, and fun - all at the same time. It was a wonderful way to spend our final evening in Key West.

    We booked this trip because of the marine biology and conservation efforts. I am so glad we did. Heather was wonderful, she taught us about the local ecosystem without making it feel like a lecture. Wade was awesome as well, very funny and very knowledgeable about the area. He made it his mission to find us some dolphins to see. They provide all snorkel equipment, including a wet suit in colder months, which I was grateful for. They also have float belts for those who are not strong swimmers. The snorkel location was about 9-15 feet I believe. Heather snorkeled with us and guided us and taught us along the way. She found a purple sea urchin to show us who had camouflaged with shells! After the snorkel she cut up fresh fruit for us, which was delicious. There is a “head” on the boat (or bathroom) which is very much like an airplane bathroom, except for the flushing which you do by hand. There is plenty of seating down below with shade, and an upper deck to watch from. We saw dolphins, a manatee, and a sea turtle!

    Fantastic 3 hours, saw dolphins feeding and playing, snorkeling was good, not crystal clear with colourful shoals of angel fish, but lots of other fish and saw a huge grouper, small party size, 25 people made the whole experience great. Crew were excellent, informative and answered any questions, water and booze thrown in, what more could you want. Thoroughly recommend.

    Definitely a party cruise. There was a DJ playing music woth party lights and the drinks flowed generously. We were welcomed with a refreshing rum punch.
    The dinner buffet was good. The fish and pork were well seasoned.
    We were lucky to have perfect weather.
    The reason for the lower review was there was little seating outside. Being older (67) , I am not onerly comfortable standing for an extended time, especially while on the water. Even " leaning" room was limited. When they weren't serving the meal, we could have sat inside, but then you wouldn't have the great views.

    Me and my husband took our kids ages 7,11 and 14. When I tell you this experience was EVERYTHING from the meet up all the way to the docking station it was so nice and it was our first time too. The boat crew and captain was so friendly made me feel even better!!! Would definitely do again and I highly recommend.

    We had the most amazing time on the Echo II. Molly and Bailey were so knowledgeable, professional and friendly. The most amazing part was the small group. We all felt like friends by the end of the sail. And thankfully, the sunset didn’t disappoint!

    The people who operate the boat and business are great people! The boat crew are professional and they make sure that they always keep an eye on the passengers and are concerned about their safety. The business office keeps you up to date on any changes about your excursion. We had a good time and learned alot.
