He…read morerecommended a few of his favorite beers to bring onboard and gave us a rundown of our itinerary for the day. He drove us by a popular spot for dolphin sightings and was patient enough to wait around with us to see if we'd spot any. He dropped anchor in about 5-10 feet of water and let us snorkel. Despite the poor visibility, my boyfriend and I had a great time. Finally, Captain Chris brought us over to a secluded island and let us walk the shores for shells while he hung back and snapped some photos. The island was beyond beautiful-- mangrove trees, white sand, clear blue waters. By the time we were leaving, about four other boats had pulled up. Captain Chris was super knowledgeable about the area and had no problem answering any/all of my questions! When we pulled back in, the boyfriend and I picked up lunch at Mellow Ventures. Their macaroni and cheese was AMAZING, and we both ordered taco bowls. They served great, clean-tasting food.

The wines ranged from white to red, dry to sweet, flat to slightly bubbly. The countries of origin also varied nicely. This was an unforgettable experience.

After some initial chop, we made it out to smooth waters and one of the best parts of our Florida trip. We would book another cruise with them in a heartbeat and recommend this cruise company to anyone looking for a fabulous Key West experience.
