Two man CraigCat catamarans tour - The guide was nice and gave informed instructions on the proper way to drive the boats. We were guided to a secluded place surrounded by mangroves in which we were set free to explore and have fun with the boats. Weather permitted us to go out into the ocean as it was a calm day. The scenery was spectacular with the light blue on dark blue water. It did make me wish we could stop for a quick swim though. Overall a great adventure.

A 2 hour tour! - Captain Jo Jo better do some research. His submarine fingers are an abandoned military housing project! The submarine base was located in Key West. Turtles surface for a breath of air and a quick look around.

Awesome Time!!! - So much fun! Easy to control and a laid back way to explore the waters of Key West!! We saw green sea turtles, the crystal clear waters and Captain JoJo made it even more fun. He gave history of the island and the tour! We have done the jet ski tour before and enjoyed this way more!!!

If you’re into trying new... - If you’re into trying new things, this is definitely different. It was so much fun!!! Our guide was excellent and informed us on a lot of different topics about Key West. The catamarans aren’t difficult to drive, and we had two different areas where we were allowed to roam a bit on our own. 10/10

Not what we expected, but fun! - Not what we expected, but lots of fun. Based on the description, we thought we would be doing leisurely boating through shady mangrove channels. This tour had time to experience/play on the boats in the open sea and also in smaller inlets with mangroves. So even though it wasn't what we expected, we had just a ton of fun with the mini-catamarans. It was a 30 or 40 hp engine, so plenty of power to get it going. The guide was great with instructions on operations and boating safey and good knowledge of the eco area. I would recommend sunscreen!!!

A little disappointed - This was not what I expected! I thought we would see wildlife in mangrove swamps….alas, just 2 birds. It was mainly traveling in the open water. The boats were fun though.
