What to expect

This full-day sailing trip is the perfect way to explore the natural side of Key West—away from crowds and off the beaten path. You’ll board a historic schooner and sail into the Key West National Wildlife Refuge, a protected area only accessible by boat, known for clear water, mangrove islands, and marine life!

You’ll snorkel over coral heads, kayak through mangrove channels, and relax on deck between activities. When conditions allow, we'll also stop at a shallow sandbar. All gear is provided, including sanitized snorkel equipment, flotation devices, and kayaks.

The crew shares stories about Key West’s history and gives fun, informative eco talks throughout the day. No experience is needed—they guide and support all skill levels!

Group size is limited to 20 guests for a more personal, spacious experience. This trip is family-friendly and great for all ages. Lunch is fresh and locally prepared, with salads from Fausto’s, sandwiches, fruit, chips and salsa, and hummus. Vegetarian and gluten-free options are available on request. Restroom facilities are onboard. After the water activities, enjoy craft beer, wine, and non-alcoholic drinks during the sail back to Key West!
