Where We Go

Hanging out in The Backcountry

The Backcountry

A.K.A The Great White Heron Wildlife Refuge, the backcountry is a 130,000 acre refuge of shallow water, sandbars, mangrove islands and a haven for migratory wildlife all year. The depth ranges from exposed low tide areas out to the edge of the Gulf in about 10' of water.

By boat we look for dolphin playing and feeding, sea turtles catching breaths of air, stingrays sleeping on the bottom and sharks wandering for a meal.

Snorkeling The Coral Reef

The Coral Reef

The Florida Keys barrier reef is the third largest in the world and runs the length of the island chain. First largest is Australia and second is Belize. The depth ranges from exposed areas out to 30' where the open ocean floor begins.

Considered the absolute best area to snorkel with a large variety of color, species, unique environment and clear waters due to it's proximity to the open ocean. We utilize smaller inshore reefs as well.

Storm Over The Gulf Waters

Bodies of Water

Gulf of Mexico - Technically anything on the north side of the island chain is The Gulf. Why is the Gulf important to us? Simply put, it hosts it's own unique fishing, snorkeling and wildlife environment.

The Atlantic Ocean - Technically anything on the South side of the island chain is The Atlantic. Why is the Atlantic important to us? It's deep ocean currents and flowing food chain flood life into The Keys.
