About this tour
Explore the quiet waterways of the Florida Keys on a private Islamorada ecotour and snorkeling boat tour. Guided by a USCG-licensed captain with a background in marine biology and environmental science, you’ll travel through mangrove islands and channels in search of native wildlife, including dolphins, manatees, crocodiles, and nesting birds.
The boat can reach places other vessels cannot, including no-combustion zones, while its location in lower Islamorada offers quick access to both the mangroves and the ocean. Snorkeling equipment is provided, and water is served from a jug with cups to help limit plastic use aboard. This four-hour outing combines wildlife watching, time on the water, and snorkeling in a private setting.
Meet at the marina dock near the kayaks and filet table, beneath the KeyZ Charters sign and white flag. Set out to discover Islamorada’s distinctive coastal habitats on an Islamorada ecotour and snorkeling boat tour.
