Visión General
What’s better than snorkeling in Key West? Doing it twice! Climb aboard Fury’s fast catamaran and embark on a journey that explores Key West’s underwater marvels.
During our 3-hour Key West snorkeling trip, you’ll get the chance to snorkel the reef in two different locations. Fury’s power catamaran was built for speed and comfort. It’s the quickest way to get to the reef, so you can spend less time traveling and more time snorkeling. Once at the reef, you’ll be given top of the line snorkel gear including a snorkel, mask, fins and a snorkel vest. You’ll also get some professional tips and guidance on how to best snorkel and enjoy your experience. After meeting some of our most popular residents - the colorful marine species that inhabit the reef - we’ll transport you to another ideal location on the reef for more snorkeling
FAQs
Key West is a very popular snorkeling destination as we are home to North America’s only living coral barrier reef. The reef is protected by Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary and is home to over 500 species of fish and an abundance or corals. Fury also supports local reef restoration efforts by donating a portion of every snorkel ticket to Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary.
The Captain will choose best reef destination for snorkeling based on the marine conditions of the day. There are several possible reef locations you may visit: Sand Key, Rock Key, Eastern Dry Rocks and Western Sambo, just to name a few.
Our experienced and CPR certified Fury crew will give you detailed instructions as you sail out to the Living Coral Reef. They will go over the best practices and safe snorkel procedures for your day at the reef.
We will provide you with a mask, snorkel and buoyancy compensator and fins for snorkeling. You are more than welcome to bring your own gear if you wish.
Wetsuits are available seasonally for a fee of $12 per suit - on location
We are very lucky that so many days here in Key West look exactly like the beautiful photos and video you see on our website & other marketing materials. However, you should be aware that all of our water adventures are outdoors and influenced by Mother Nature. Many days underwater visibility is 80+ feet and teeming with sea life; others are not. Though we hope that every day is perfect, we are not in control of the wind, waves, clouds, rain or underwater sea life. If we are aware of any concerning factors regarding conditions, we will make an announcement before your trip departs. At that time, you may elect to take the tour, reschedule or receive a refund.
The total snorkel trip time is 3 hours. Guests will enjoy about 35-40 minutes to sun and relax as we sail out to reef, approximately 35-40 minutes of reef snorkeling at each location and about another 35-40 minute cruise back to Key West.

We do not provide food on this tour but you are more than welcome to bring food with you, just as long nothing is in a glass container and it fits in a small soft cooler. Water and soda are available before you snorkel and beer, wine and champagne are available after you finish snorkeling.
Yes. Fury will provide you with snorkel instruction and equipment, but you must know how to swim to participate in any snorkel adventure. We take you about 7 miles offshore of Key West and once in the ocean, there will not be a place for you to touch or stand, while snorkeling. All guests will receive flotation devices for their safety. Fury crew is present to assist in an emergency, but will not be able to solely attend to one party for the duration of the trip. For those unable to swim, we suggest booking a trip aboard our Glass Bottom Boat, where you can see the reef and marine life from the comfort of the boat. Guests are also always welcome to relax and enjoy the amenities aboard our spacious catamarans, during the snorkel portion of any tour.
All participants must sign a liability waiver to participate in snorkeling and other adventures.
Please bring a Valid Government Issued Photo ID. Gratuities are customary.
Social distancing procedures will be in place throughout every facet of operations. All vessels are equipped with hand sanitizing stations. During each tour, crew members will regularly disinfect risk areas such as railings, table tops, bars, restroom door knobs, faucets and toilets if equipped. Immediately after each tour, the vessel will again be sanitized with disinfectant solutions, including all areas on the vessel that have had the potential of being touched – even if it wasn’t knowingly touched. At the end of the day, each vessel will receive another deep cleaning with disinfectant solutions. All surfaces will undergo sanitizing even if they could’ve never been touched.
