sail, snorkel & kayak tours

Focus on ecology, comfort, adventure: you’ll see marine life, learn about the ecosystem and enjoy a day on a beautiful schooner.

$99.00

  • 9AM Daily Departure
  • ~ 4.5 hours Tour Duration
  • Up to 20 Guests

What you’ll do:
Sail a shallow-draft schooner designed to navigate the calm flats, mangrove channels and shallow sandbars of the Key West National Wildlife Refuge (also known as “the Backcountry”).

Kayak: Paddle through mangrove-shaded waterways, drift among roots and tunnels of lush green – peaceful, immersive, and unlike any typical tour.

Snorkel: Slip into crystal-clear shallow flats where sunlight reaches the sea floor. Gaze down on living coral, vibrant fish, and maybe turtles or dolphins. All gear is included and the crew guides you the whole way.

Relax: Between activities enjoy time on deck under the sails, wind in your hair and nothing but water and horizon around you. The early hours give you that exclusive "we're the first ones out" vibe.

Includes masks, fins, snorkels, kayaks, life jackets, wet-suits in winter time upon request, snacks, soft-drinks, beer/wine.

What to bring: swim suit, hat/sunglasses, towel, reef-safe sunscreen, camera.

What you’ll do:
Sail a shallow-draft schooner designed to navigate the calm flats, mangrove channels and shallow sandbars of the Key West National Wildlife Refuge (also known as “the Backcountry”).

Kayak: Kayak through calm mangroves under afternoon light: perfect reflection, warm water, abundant wildlife

Snorkel: in shallow flats or reef edges where marine life thrives; the afternoon light often highlights vibrant color underwater.

Relax: Enjoy snacks and drinks onboard (fruit, chips & salsa, hummus, soft drinks, water—plus beer/wine in some seasons) while you take in the sea breeze.

Sunset: As the final leg begins, the schooner’s sail takes you back at sunset – sky turns gold, pink and orange, and the sea mirrors the magic.

Includes masks, fins, snorkels, kayaks, life jackets, wet-suits in winter time upon request, snacks, soft-drinks, beer/wine.

What to bring: swim suit, hat/sunglasses, towel, reef-safe sunscreen, camera.
