I think this is a very honest and fair place. I'd like to comment on a couple of the reviews on yelp complaining about gas costs. This is simple common sense. I'd have to assume that no one would expect Hertz or Enterprise to include the gas. You have to pay for gas folks. Secondly, boats are rated at "gallons per hour". They use a LOT of gas. Atlantis charging a price of about 4 bucks a gallon is very reasonable (September of 2018) for marina price. I'd definitely recommend this place!!!

So we walk in and look at the map, there's trails to walk, a river to see. We didn't know what to expect, but we weren't seeing much of anything to write home about, so we decided to go off trail to get a closer look at a pretty little stream nearby. Just then a woman in a yellow vest comes walking out of the brush calling out, "Don't worry, I'm a human, not an animal!" She was the most interesting thing we'd seen so far, so we asked her if she worked at the park and she told us the most fascinating story. She's a python hunter! She catches invasive python snakes with her bare hands and puts them in the bags she had tied around her waist, takes them back to a place where they humanely euthanize them, and then the hunter has the option to collect the skins, which she does and makes jewelry out of it. She gets more money catching pythons in the Keys rather than the Everglades because the Keys are harder to get to and find the snakes. She told us more about her life and story to go into here, but I just want to say that while I was polite and listened to her, I am animal rights activist so I am 100% against catching even invasive animals and killing them. Hopefully one day we'll come up with a better solution to this problem. We didn't see any snakes while we were in the park, but just know that they are there. She said they'll probably scurry away from you, but some are big enough to take down and eat whole deer and gators. If you run into her there and she finds a gigantic snake, she may call on you to help her catch it. At least, that's what she told us.

Captain Joe and mates (Auna…read moreand Hope) provided the best experience for myself (an experienced snorkeler) and my 25-year-old son (a newbie). I have been on other snorkel tours before, and Sundiver with this crew is the best. They attended well to passengers (approximately 30 of us) and took the time to explain the hows and whys to my son. The conditions were optimal, the underwater snorkeling adventure was breathtaking (my son is now all about snorkeling and because the experience was so amazing, we are going to try diving next). When we asked Captain Joe some questions at the end of the tour, he spent quality time explaining to my son how it is living and working in Key Largo and also about the available diving internships in the area. The ocean water was a very clear, pristine blue. We are very glad we chose the Christ of the Abyss tour - it was amazing - see pictures below. We will definitely return to the area and take this particular tour again!

In fact, we arrived at the reef with the Christ statue when one of the crowded boats was leaving and left about an hour later one another one arrived. We practically had the place to ourselves. After snorkeling the two reefs we ate lunch and paddle boarded. It was a great day spent on the ocean. If you want a comfortable relaxing time and nice personalized experience out on the water, I highly recommend Capt. Putnam's boat. He is very friendly and truly accommodating to what we wanted to do. I definitely give this experience a 5-star rating!

Three of them are prone to sea sickness, one has anxiety about being on boats, one has anxiety about getting into the ocean, one has had eye surgery and yet another is afraid she won't be able to get back in the boat if she gets off. We all got in the water (and successfully got back in the boat!) We we're able to fully enjoy the beauty of the ocean all while sounding like a bunch of cackling hens. Spurgeon had the patience of a saint, which allowed us to sit back and relax. He talked us all through our fears, gave us great instruction, was full of interesting information. I highly recommend chartering with Nautical Adventures and Captain Spurgeon!
