About this tour

Spend an easygoing afternoon on the water with a Key West Sandbar, Snorkeling and Sunset Sail, combining clear backcountry waters, a laid-back sandbar stop, and sunset views in one 5-hour outing. Aboard a historic schooner, sail through the Florida Keys and snorkel in calm waters with equipment provided. Then head to a shallow sandbar to wade, float, play, or simply soak up the sun. The relaxed pace leaves room to enjoy each stop and the scenery along the way. Back on board, sip beer, wine, soda, or bottled water and enjoy light snacks, including fresh fruit, hummus, chips, and salsa. As the day winds down, watch the sky change color over the water on the sail back toward Key West. Arrive 30 minutes before departure to check in at the base of the Opal Key Resort, and bring a towel, swimwear, sun protection, and any other essentials for your time outside. Choose this Key West Sandbar, Snorkeling and Sunset Sail for a refreshing mix of swimming, sailing, and golden-hour scenery. Book your place and enjoy the Keys at an unhurried pace.

How the score works and rating distribution in Key West
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 7.1.
