Unforgettable experience! - This was an amazing experience with a very knowledgeable and friendly team. We spotted dolphins almost as soon as we left the docks and the crew made sure we were comfortable and accommodated with snacks, water, and dolphin facts! The guided snorkeling was a grand time and I appreciated the option to go off and explore on our own. We saw many parrot fish and urchins!

Most excellent dolphin watch - It was excellent. I enjoyed swimming with the stingrays and seeing all the dolphins the crew took care of us very well. Captain Patrick and Kaylen were the best. They were very knowledgeable and a lot of fun.

Third time tourists - This is the third time we have done a tour with Honest ECO and the never disappoint. The captain and the mates were all extremely knowledgeable. They take less people than the larger tour companies and it makes it so much more enjoyable. We will go again next time we are in Key West.

Key West experience! - Patrick and Courtney were great! The trio was beautiful and we found dolphins almost immediately. Stayed for a good time watching them swim, play and investigate us. Then we headed to the reef and snorkeled for a couple of hours. I’m a novice snorkeler but they helped me feel confident and I had a great experience. Saw multiple colorful fish, coral and an eagle ray. Highly recommend!

Wonderful Pre Wedding Activity for Family - We loved our private charter 4 hour guided snorkeling and dolphin watching. Captain Dan and Sam did a great job of providing information, snorkeling instruction, and pointed out many things while we snorkeled. We had a blast!

A great time! - Captain Matt did a great job by leading us straight to the dolphins. Hadden is a wealth of knowledge with some humor thrown in. Courtney is a fantastic hand. She is friendly, courteous and knowledgeable. They treat you like friends. It was our first time snorkeling and they ensured we were well-prepared. We saw so many species along the reef! The boat was simple to find and it was definitely worth the price of admission. Thank you for a memorable experience!

A laid back cruise for those looking for smaller groups - Nice trip, saw dolphins and some decent snorkeling had. Enjoyed the small group size and it was very laid back. Expected a more focused biology cruise with how it’s listed and the higher price compared to others but the tour was pretty standard. The guides were polite and as knowledgeable as others in the area. If your interested in a smaller group with less of a “booze” focus this is a good option especially since there is a chance to see some dolphins included. Personally I would probably choose another option next time due to price but it was an enjoyable laid back boat ride and lasted for 4 hours and I would recommend as an option for those traveling with children. They had water to drink in little metal cups, a little veggie tray with some hummus after snorkeling and sliced up a pineapple and a couple of apples while looking for dolphins. Recommend bringing your own snacks and drinks if you feel your crew might get hungry or thirsty though. Small marine bathroom on board that could be used for changing. Also not the best snorkeling gear on board so recommend bringing your own if you have decent mask and flippers.
