2.Half Day Scuba Diving Trip in the Florida Keys

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 157 reviews · 3 hours 30 minutes (approx.) · from $115Top rated

Spend about four hours aboard a 45-foot catamaran, visiting two reef sites in the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary. Certified scuba divers bring or rent their own equipment, while tanks and weights are included. Captains Brad, Katie, and Carl, plus guides such as Scuba Joe and Nate, help set the tone.

“I recently had an experience with "Pirate's Cove" that left me disappointed. I expected a good family friendly trip, but instead I encountered poor service, delays, unprofessional behavior from the Manager, and rude employees. This was especially frustrating because this was my wife and I's anniversary trip, and we would have went elsewhere had I known this place to be such a circus. I believe that the business could improve by buying newer, less prone to break-down equipment, providing basic nessecities to its customers, and getting rid of that Suzie woman. She was a very crude and unrefined woman. Unfortunately, based on this experience, I cannot recommend them at this…”
