Where We Go
Our Summertime Morning Swim takes you to beautiful shallow waters in the Florida Keys where guests can swim, search for sand dollars, and enjoy the peaceful beauty of the islands.
The cruise itself is part of the adventure. Along the way, keep an eye out for dolphins, rays, sea turtles, and other marine life commonly found in the Florida Keys.
We typically spend approximately one hour at our destination, giving guests plenty of time to swim, explore, and enjoy the crystal-clear waters before heading back to the marina.
