Oh what a night!
Sophia L.

Absolutely loved this cruise. The staff was great. Would highly recommend. The senset spectacular. The experience very much worth having. In a town where most everything is overpriced, this cruise was priced perfect and worth every cent. Would have tipped more if I could have. Thank you Argo Navi we loved it.

View from the bow.

Easily the highlight of our trip to Key West. The ironic thing is that it was the one activity we didn't plan. We found out about Argo Navis during our food tour. We were able to book then for that evening. It was a beautiful evening on the water. They are not joking when they say a 75 foot luxury catamaran. It was a beautiful vessel. Well appointed with seating both indoors and out. We spent the majority of time on the bow. The wind in our face was awesome. We had a smaller group of only eleven, so the service was very attentive. Our drinks stayed full and had our choice of appetizers. We were able to get plenty of pictures and videos during the trip. It was so nice being on a quiet vessel away from the craziness of some of the other sunset cruise charters. A nice slow enjoyable evening is exactly what we got. They say you get what you pay for, and this was a shining example. When we return we will be back to another cruise. Next time we will bring our two pups for the ride as well! Thanks for a great trip!

Perfect sunset cruise! Went on the same one two years in a row and would do it again! They have lovely appetizers, a great drink selection and a relaxing cruise to watch the sunset. Carol and Mandy were fabulous!

During our Foodie Tour, our last stop was key lime pie onboard the Argo Navis luxury catamaran. We loved it so much that we booked their sunset cruise for the next evening. It was a wonderful experience with nice tapas style snacks and an incredible sunset! The crew was very friendly and we would definitely sail again, perhaps for their Sunday brunch cruise.

This is now one of my top tips for Key West! Everything they did was so classy and tasteful! The boat is beautiful!!! The bathrooms are modern and clean. Loved that it wasn't crowded at all - we actually made friends with the others who joined us. The crew was friendly and high-class. What drew me in was that they feature brunch from all over Key West so I could try brunch items from all over town. The Bloody Marys from The Saint Hotel was my favorite! My husband and I rave about this experience with everyone we meet. Worried about the price point? It's priced perfectly for the value you receive! Can't wait to do it again!

This has been the best experience in Key West the whole week. From the first minute the Captain met us on the dock to the last minute after docking, the crew has been wonderful in welcoming us and treating us like royalty.. with all drinks and tasteful finger food appetizers and most of all the clean and beautiful boat; we were delighted and definitely will come back to do the trip again next time we are on Key West.

A group of 6 of us took this sunset cruise out. I had read many reviews from different sources. First is that it's a beautiful sail boat. It is warm and inviting. All amenities that are mentioned are kept clean and didn't disappoint. The crew was very hospitable and personal. They answered questions and seemed to enjoy what they do. No music which we knew ahead of time, which for me was great. They had plenty of alcohol to go around and a decent selection at that. Where they fall short is the appetizer menu. It was said that there would be enough that you would not leave feeling hungry. The skewers of meat and cheese are good, but as far as getting six, I truly don't think we had that. We should have eaten before boarding, so yes the do have appetizers of sorts, it is not enough for a meal and if there's a large crew seconds do not happen. I come down to the Keys pretty often, and think for the money we will try someone different.

What a great day on the water! Brunch cruise was awesome! Andy, Emma, Lindsay, Angelina and Connie were outstanding! Very friendly, knowledgeable and very accommodating! If in Key West and want to cruise around on a beautiful boat with a GREAT crew - this is your best bet! Food and drinks were on point - GF/DF for one of our travelers as well! Kuddos to all and Thanks for the great memories and all the laughs!

Took our 3rd cruise with Hindu Charters and loved it again! The staff and our captain Sean were fantastic and go above and beyond to make everyone happy. Perfect weather, great apps and drinks and just a really wonderful time. The sunset was beautiful. We recommend to everyone

A wonderful night

See all

Namaste Sailing Charters

My husband and I booked a snorkeling excursion with Namaste and felt like it was only an…read moreadequate/average experience. Clearly, Namaste is pretty well reviewed on Yelp, but our experience made us wonder whether something had gone awry with our tour. The information we read on the website made it seem like it would be more of a special, hands-on three hours on AND IN the water. While Jeff was eager and informative about his on-deck timeline presentation about the millions of years of geological history regarding coral reefs, the information about the present day was a little lacking. Additionally, it was a bit surprising to be on an "eco" excursion and to hear Jeff talk about how global climate change doesn't concern him as much as pollution does, especially since climate change is the result of pollution by greenhouse gases. During Jeff's presentation on the boat, there were some details and photos of different corals, but there was no instruction in the water. The pics and description on the site made it seem like the four of us who were "guests" would be led snorkeling around the reef and be presented with observations and sightings of the marine life first-hand--for example, there's a photo onsite of a diver showing/handing a guest a sea cucumber. What actually happened was that Jeff dove into the water before any of the guests and then seemed to be off swimming on his own personal snorkeling adventure during the roughly 40-45 minutes we were snorkeling, although he and his (very friendly) wife, Trish, did swim by to take underwater pics from time to time. And that brings me to another point: We paid extra for a photo package, which ended up being publicly available pics that they posted to Facebook after the trip anyway; no "photo package" was ever provided specifically to us. Additionally, there was no checking in at any time about the comfort level of any guest--nothing asked about swimming abilities, no suggestion of floatation assistance in the fairly choppy water, and no requirement even of life vests at any time during the three hours we were on/in the water. This actually discouraged my husband (a nervous swimmer) from even getting in the water, although neither Jeff nor Trish ever inquired about why one of the only four guests on board didn't want to get in the water or whether there was anything they could do as guides. (The tour description called for strong swimmers but also accommodated "shy swimmers.) Jeff and Trish seemed, in this regard, as being rather amateurish, and the food and drinks provided were lackluster as well (a block of supermarket cheese cut up on the spot, along with shrinkwrapped watermelon and pineapple slices and crackers dumped out on plates set on deck. We aren't super fancy or picky, but we've been on less expensive and equally informative snorkeling excursions elsewhere (St Thomas, Turks and Caicos, etc), and Namaste was a bit adequate by comparison, especially regarding the higher price and the hands-on explorations that was promised via the Namaste website.

I'm no Key West expert - prior to my recent trip, the last time I was there was at age five. I was…read moreleft turning to the world wide web to find decent dining, nightlife, and activities. While lounging around was on the top of my family's list, a snorkeling trip was at the top of mine. I set out to find the right tour operator for us. Yelp led me toward a very well reviewed, giant tour company. As I flipped through their photos, something didn't feel right. Crowds, a party boat, frat boys. Where were the fish? Where was the coral? It seemed that these things were an afterthought for many operators. So I hit Google. And one operator's facebook page caught my eye: Namaste Sailing. Their facebook page was loaded with albums of recent snorkeling trips. In fact, each charter had its own album full of beautiful underwater photos. Seemed like a good sign. I made my way to their official website and found more goodies. Snorkeling, sailing, and a little bit of environmental education. Sounded like the right thing for me. Booking was painless. I called the main number and quickly realized I was talking to Jeff, the co-owner and co-captain of the Namaste, the 30+ foot sailboat he and his wife Trish call home. We settled on a "mixed private" snorkeling trip at $125/person that would last about four hours. Mixed private means other folks are free to sail with us, but no more than eight people total. It was significantly more affordable than a private charter but was still a small operation - a good trade off. Soon it was finally sailing day. We met Trish on a marina just north of Key West. She led us to the Namaste. As we approached the boat, we all assumed it was the small, dodgy-looking boat to our right. Wrong we were. The Namaste, to our left, is a majestic 37' blue water sailing dreamboat. We hopped on and were greeted by Capt. Ron. Capt. Ron is the Namaste's live-aboard cat and he was quite snuggly. Also on board was a very sweet little dog named pollito who was amazingly well-behaved. Then finally we met Jeff who would be our boat driver (after all, Ron is the Captain). Jeff and Trish couldn't have been more welcoming. We soon realized we were sitting aboard their home - they live year-round on the Namaste. After we left the harbor, Trish and Jeff tag-teamed a quick, informative, and passionate presentation about reef ecosystems, what we might see in the water, and how we can minimize our impact on the reef. Both Trish and Jeff are retired teachers and it shows through. This might have been our favorite part of the trip! When we finally arrived at the reef, we tied off to a buoy, donned our snorkeling gear, and jumped in with Trish. She led the way through crystal clear water to the Western Sambo reef. The coral was from 5 to 15 feet below the water. The reef was a beautiful mural of sea fans, fish, corals, and sand. Truly indescribable. While we snorkeled around, Trish followed nearby and snapped photos of the reef, of us, and of us looking at the reef. Once we tired ourselves out, we swam back to the boat and returned to shore. Our guides had cold watermelon and cheese & crackers waiting for us as well as cold drinks. Once we were back on shore, we started checking the Namaste facebook page religiously. We were so eager to see our tour amongst their many photo albums. About three days afterwards, our photos appeared. They were excellent and will make sure we remember the trip for years to come. Trish is quite the photographer! We were encouraged to download the pictures -- at no additional cost. If you want to snorkel while in Key West, you should do yourself (and the reef) a favor and opt for a small and responsible operator like Namaste Sailing. Once you've committed to that goal, going with this outfit is a no-brainer. Jeff and Trish bring such deep passion to their work. If I make it back to Key West, another trip on the Namaste is undoubtedly in my plans.
