Captain Vaughn was absolutely the best and was a great conversationalist. We did a custom tour and went to Snipes, Marvin and Mud Key and it couldn’t have been a more perfect trip. The boat was great and he navigated the waters with ease. I would very much recommend taking this charter.

Vaughn was an outstanding guide; both personable and incredibly knowledgeable about Key West’s history. He took us to a variety of secluded islands and beautiful mangroves within the Great White Heron National Wildlife Refuge, making the experience feel unique and off the beaten path. He also went above and beyond by providing a cooler, paddleboards, and snorkeling gear, ensuring we had everything we needed for a perfect day on the water. Highly recommend!

Captain Van was great. He was on time and easy to communicate with.  I loved being able to have safe parking at no cost. Parking has been a bit of an issue in Key West. He knew all the best spots and had paddle boards and snorkels for us to use included. He had a chest full of ice and took photos. Overall this trip was 10 out of 10.
