It was magic - Very well-run professional organization. The crew were the right mix of fun and serious business. We were able to relax and have fun knowing we were with a great crew that would take care of the guests. We saw lots of beautiful fish, a huge nurse shark, a sting ray and barracuda.

Silent World Dive Center is Top Notch!!!! - We throughly enjoyed our experience with Silent World Dive Center. Online sign up and checking in at the shop was effortless. Captain Brandon and Jolisa were professional, knowledgeable, and hilarious. They provided clear instructions and an overall enjoyable experience.

Great Snorkel Adventure - I highly recommend, if you find yourself in the beautiful Keys, head to John Pennekamp. Don’t miss the snorkel adventure with Jeff and Jolie, at Silent World Dive Center. Jolie could not have been more attentive, and sweet, and Jeff took us to the best spots. Amazingly Jeff told us the best place to see Spotted Rays. As soon as I got to that spot, I saw 2 beautiful rays! Also check out the dive shop, we bought great shirts there. Had lots of help from the very kind young man running the shop! We will definitely be back!

The best snorkel trip. - An amazing 2 snorkel trip to “Christ of the Abyss”, and Banana Reef. The entire experience was incredible from booking, to dive shop, to boat. Every staff member we encountered was friendly and very helpful, including the gift shop. They supplied all the necessary equipment. A special shout out to our great boat crew, Jeff & Jolie. A well run operation !

Fun and entertaining - Our first trip was canceled due to weather, totally understandable, and they did a great job getting us rebooked the next day on a trip that worked for us. Capt Aaron (sp?) and Emily were fantastic, very entertaining and informative crew. The water was great temperature and visibility and we saw numerous fish as well as jellyfish, a shark, manta ray and then saw some dolphin (the mammals) from the boat on the way back in.
