What people said about boating in Alligator Reef
- 4.7/5(6 Hour – Multi-Activity 1-6 Guests)
Great trip to charter, awesome Captain and very comfortable boat!
It's hot, but not as crowded as other times of year. The water and place is basically beautiful though.
- 5.0/5(6 Hr – Multi Activity)
MUST DO ADVENTURE!!
Take the boat trip! My husband expected more beaches down in the keys but that’s not really the case! Taking the boat out was so much more fun and worth the investment and time!
- 5.0/5(2 Hour Private Charter (Afternoon))
Just what we wanted!
We purposefully avoided the party areas, and were taken to a quiet spot where we could just swim and snorkel. If you know what you want to do, and ask the captain for recommendations, they do a great job finding the perfect spot.
- 5.0/5(Private Snorkel Charter (4hr / PM))
Experienced and Family Friendly!!
Book with Captain Matt!!!! He is experienced and knows the best places to go as well as the rules and regulations. Great time for our family, ages 10, 11, 14, 17, 43 and 47!!
- 4.0/5(4 Hour – Boating Adventure)
it was a good time!
Bring everything you need including food, anti-nausea medicine, and plenty if water.
- 5.0/5(4 Hour – Sandbar Trip)
Awesome family snorkeling adventure
The Captain is highly focused on safety and communication. Listen to his briefing details on safety, boat features, and most of all where you want to go and what you want to see. And don't forget sunscreen!! Have an awesome time.
- 5.0/5(6 Hour – Islamorada Adventure)
Fathers Day Sandbar Celebration
Known for their water but not the beaches you would think. Be prepared for the iguanas on dry land
- 5.0/5(Private Snorkel Charter (3hr / AM))
Amazing day trip out of Islamorada
Make sure you are using reef safe sunscreen, stay hydrated, water is very clear but there will likely be seaweed/sargassum floating on top of the water, which doesn’t stink in the water, just swim around it.
- 5.0/5(Private Snorkel Charter (3hr / AM))
Captain Matt was great!
Yes, charter had it all—just show up and enjoy the beauty of the Keys. Captain Matt did a great job.
- 5.0/5(3 Hr – Afternoon Sandbar & Snorkel)
Sandbar Trip
Definitely go to the sandbar, and on the way home stop by Robbies and feed the Tarpon and have a delicious Margarita!
- 5.0/5(2 Hour Private Charter (Afternoon))
Private charter- snorkel & sightseeing
Highly recommend going on at least one excursion! Even a short snorkel trip is well worth it!!
- 5.0/5(2 Hour Private Boat Tour MIDDAY)
Excellent trip
Early April may be windy, which can impact tours, you may want to wait until you get here to book, because the forecast is rarely accurate more than a day in advance. Sightseeing/sand bar trips are likely less impacted than snorkeling/fishing trips.
- 5.0/5(Private Snorkel Charter (4hr /AM))
Family fun fishing!
This was an absolute fantastic time! Captain Eddie went above and beyond, and I cannot thank him enough!
- 5.0/5(4 Hour Private Tour (Afternoon))

Fun day on the water!
Perfect morning on the water for our family! Great music and vibes. Captain Dawid was very accomodating, knew the area well and had all the equipment needed including a football for my teenage boys. Would highly recommend!
5.0/5(Private Snorkel Charter (2hr / PM))Amazing snorkel experience
Captain Matt clearly cares about what he does! We saw so many fish ! He knew the perfect private spot to go to! It was relaxing and fun. We felt perfectly safe with him. We had 3 young kids and have the pad rolled out on the water for he kids to lay on and put their masks in the water too. Again would recommend to everyone!
5.0/5(3 Hour – Snorkeling Trip)Outstanding Trip
It was an awesome experience! The weather was a little windier than we had hoped for but our captain made it work! He suggested a couple spots to take us to based on his local knowledge that were incredible for snorkeling! We got to see lots of marine life including a sea turtle, eagle ray, lots of fish, and a manatee + baby manatee to top it off! We had a great time and would recommend again.
5.0/5(3 Hr Private Charter & Sandbar (AM))Definitely a must do again!
The only bad thing I have to say is that I should’ve booked the trip for longer! Captain Mervin was great! Kept us educated about where we were going, where we were at and things to do. Overall great experience very knowledgeable felt very comfortable and safe. after the excursion, it was great to be able to cool off in the pool. Everything was very clean very nice. Thank you for a great time and making it memorable!
5.0/5(4 Hr – Sandbar Trip)Great Trip
We had an amazing time on our sandbar charter today! The captain was friendly, knowledgeable, and made sure everyone had a great experience. Everything was well organized, and we couldn’t have asked for a better day on the water. Highly recommend this charter if you’re looking for a fun and relaxing day. We’ll definitely be back!
- 5.0/5(2 Hour – Sandbar Trip)

Fun sunset cruise
I had a specific plan in mind for our first night down in the Keys and Captain Dalton worked with me to create a memorable night for my family. With a customized plan, we were able to coordinate a unique pickup and dropoff. Dalton was friendly and chill and we enjoyed our time on the water very much. 
5.0/5(4 Hour – Islamorada Adventure)great trip!!!!!!

- 5.0/5(Private Islamorada Sunset Cruise)
Best boat charter
We left our hotel in Marathon to see other islands and chartering a boat here was the best choice we could have made. The whole experience was lovely, especially the captain who was warm and friendly and knew exactly what to do with 4 teenagers. Will definitely book again when we go back!
- 5.0/5(2 Hr - Afternoon Sandbar & Snorkel)
Private Sandbar & Snorkel Charters
We had an amazing experience with this Dinorah’s charter — so good that we even extended our tour. The kids were in heaven on the floating mat and paddle boards, and the crew made everything easy, fun, and family‑friendly. Beautiful sandbar, great snorkeling, and a super comfortable boat. Absolutely recommend for a perfect day on the water.
- 5.0/5(3 Hr – Afternoon Sandbar & Snorkel)
Great trip
We had a great trip with Captain David. He was personable, answered questions I had before our trip, which gave us a great afternoon on the water snorkeling and just hanging out. Would highly recommend.
