We are a full service 5 star PADI resort. Didn't travel with your gear? No worries, we have a huge selection of rental gear, everything from regulators to wetsuits. We are one of the only shops in the Keys that has complementary dive guides. Our professional dive guides will help you set up gear, brief you about the trip, and be there to help if you have any questions. We keep our guided groups small and most of the time private. Enjoy your vacations and let us worry about finding the boat.

General Information
Has it been 2 years since your last dive?
If your last dive was more than 2 years ago, we insist that you take a refresher course. If its been over 5 we recommend retaking the Open Water Course.
Two Tank Dive Trips Daily - Morning or Afternoon:
Morning Trip:
Check in at 8:30am | Departure at 9:00am | Back by 12:00pm
Afternoon Trip:
Check in at 12:30pm | Departure at 1:00pm | Back by 4:00pm
Check-in at The Dive Shop and fill out boat waivers before boarding, please note that the departure time is when the boat leaves the dock.
​
Your dive guide will help fit you for gear if you need to rent and can assist with setting up your gear.
​
Look out for turtles and dolphins on your half hour ride out to the reef. Your guide will brief you on each dive site, dive protocol, and answer any questions if you have not been diving in a while.
You will get to visit 2 different coral reef locations. We spend around an hour at each site with a 10 minute break in between as we travel between reefs. Your guide will switch over your gear onto a new tank in between dives. After the second location, we head back to shore on another half hour boat ride.
