The 15 Best Key West Reef Snorkeling Trips

38 reviewed

The only living coral barrier reef in the continental US sits six miles off the island, and half a day on the water is all it takes to swim it. These are the best reef snorkeling trips in Key West — which boats reach two anchorages, which throw in gear and drinks, and which stay calm enough for first-timers and kids.

1.Half-Day Trip from Key West with Kayaking, Snorkeling & Sunset

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 1,683 reviews · 4 hours 30 minutes (approx.) · from $115Our pick

Half-day Key West sailing plus mangrove kayaking and reef snorkeling, with wetsuits, gear, drinks, and guided wildlife spotting.

“anthony was a great deckhand . the way they handle the kayaks is a bit unwieldy. you have to wait while they load and unload. and with 20 ppl on board we were pushed around in small quarters. smaller groups would be easier on the boat. Laura doesn’t give the. best service. Did her entire education about the snorkel group where half of us could not here.”
