The captain was very experienced and knowledgable. He took us to several reefs where we saw a wide variety of sea life which included many colorful fish as well as some baby hammerhead and nurse sharks. It was great to have a charter and not have to deal with the crowds. We finished the day taking some great pictures in the sandbar. This boat was one of the main highlights of our trip to the Keys!

My boyfriend and I had a wonderful time out on the water with Captain Matt! We booked last minute the day before and Matt was proactive in being sure to call me and see what we wanted to do so he could plan. He had everything we needed for a fun morning of snorkeling then hanging out at the sandbar. He is so friendly & very knowledgeable about marine life in the FL keys. We had a wonderful day and very thankful for Captain Matt who had plenty of ideas for us to choose from to make the most of... More

My family of 4 had a great experience chartering with Captain Matt. We visited 2 great snorkel spots for which the captain provided all the gear and ensured each passenger had proper size fittings. We finished the trip by enjoying a beautiful sandbar. Would absolutely use again and recommend to others.

Captain Matt was an amazing host. So knowledgeable of the local area and even though the weather didn’t allow for Alligator Reef (way too windy) he ensured we got to snorkle and saw tons of fish. We toured the mangroves and caught and released some bonnet sharks. Amazing day. Highly recommend!!!

We had such a good time seeing Islamorada from the water. Captain Matt drove us around the bay and told us many interesting facts about the area. We were so happy that we decided to take the cruise. It was a perfect afternoon and I would highly recommend seeing the area from the water.
