    Concur with the online assessment of Silent World... a premier water sports provider, giving, snorkeling, etc. We snorkeled with them and had a great time. 3 hour trip, two snorkel sites. Crew was awesome. Quality of boat and gear obvious... first-class operation. We would use them again.... Highly recommend Silent World!

    Fun experience, great crew and staff, and a great amount of time on and in the water! We took off around 11:30 and pulled back into shore around 2:30 - out of this time we spent roughly 35 minutes traveling to and from and the rest was made available for exploring! Capt. Aaron and Emily did an awesome job of guiding our tour out to sea and along the way we visited two separate reef colonies, one of which included The Christ of the Abyss statue. We would highly recommend going with Silent World for any of your Key Largo water exploration journeys!

    I've only done three snorkeling excursions in my lifetime, but this was far and away the best of the bunch. To begin with their land side facilities were exceptional. Clean, air-conditioned bathrooms for changing, showers for washing off the salt, shaded seating areas, free water, free pop, free snacks, and reef safe Sunblock besides. The proprietor was an absolute sweetheart who made me feel very welcome from the moment I walked up to the counter. The captain (Mike) and first mate were also very friendly and made a real effort to make our excursion fun while also keeping us safe. The boat was in top-notch condition with well-maintained and comfortable seating areas. All snorkeling equipment is provided and all of it was in great condition. We had a beautiful sunny day for our time in the water, which afforded me beautiful views of the reef and the wildlife. Obviously your mileage will vary with this but my experience was absolutely wonderful. Not sure if I'll be back, but I wouldn't ever hesitate to recommend this place to anyone.

    Caption Dave and Kelly were great, they were fun and very informative. We took a snorkeling tour and loved it. It was beautiful and I can't wait to come back and do it again. It was cool to see Kelly dive down to retrieve someone's watch that fell off. Francisco & Jeannie TEXAS

    Awesome experience for reef snorkeling! Everyone that works here is super friendly and helpful. We actually went to the wrong place at first but when we called they were able to get us to the right location quickly and easily. When we arrived they were ready for us - helping us with equipment and familiarizing us with what to expect on the excursion. Preston was our boat captain and he was awesome!! Really dynamic and did a great job engaging with everyone on the tour. The two spots they dropped us in to snorkel were perfect. There were other boats in the general proximity of us but we were far enough away that it felt secluded and not overly crowded....they provided snacks water and sodas in between the stops too which was a nice touch. Preston talked a lot about the waters and reef preservation and you could tell he has a lot of passion for what he does. This company was very organized and had everything ready to go - if you're looking for a smooth boating trip I highly recommend!!

    Going to dive site

    Great quick check in. Staff is knowledgeable and explained everything that would happen and amenities down to a T. Emily and Cpt Jeff great crew, dive sites were clear with plenty of fish. Equipment was great and fairly new. Would highly reccomend

    Waiting area complete with outdoor games

    Silent World is a Dive/Snorkeling Shop located on the Northern tip of Key Largo. Having taken many snorkeling trips in the past off Key Largo, I was expecting to see a rickety old dive shop, with an even older pontoon boat. When I pulled up to Silent World, I was greeted with a completely different experience. The dive shop was new, with excellent restroom facilities, the waiting area was a nice tiki hut with plenty of seating and outdoor games to play (Cornhole and giant Connect 4), and most importantly a new and well maintained vessel. Pricing was on par with every other dive shop in the area, but what sets this shop apart are the employees. Captain Rob and Eddie were great! We visited the Dry Rocks reef "Christ of the Abyss" and the Grechian Rocks. Captain Rob gave the history of both, knowledgeable of local sea life, and were extremely patient with less than coordinated passengers who lost gear. The Grechian Rocks were much more alive with sea life, and Capt. Rob advised he knew several other better places to snorkel than Dry Rocks that they visit. We went to two dive spots in the time most dive shops would have only done one. I highly recommend.

We booked the morning and afternoon dive (total of 4 dives/sites) and we enjoyed the experience. The boat and dive guides were very friendly. We checked in then we got our rental gears. Before we left the dock, the dive guides were able to help us set up our gear (we are beginner divers and, sometimes, you just need to double check if your gear is correctly set up). We went to the Eagle Raw Alley, JJ's Cave, Minnow's Cave, and Christ of the Abyss. We saw a lot of creatures like lobster, hammer head shark, nurse shark, different fishes, stingray, crab, Christ of the Abyss, parrot fish, and tube sponge. Highly recommend this location for your next dive!

    Horrible customer service!…read more My husband and I walked I into the shop 3 times and ended up walking out 3 times disappointed with the customer service. The staff, behind the counter, was extermely unhelpful and we both got the feeling they just wanted us to leave the shop so they don't have to deal with another tourist. We are both experienced divers, just asking to book a dive, but ultimately we decided we would rather give our money to another dive shop in the area that made us feel welcome. I strongly suggest looking for a different dive shop.

This year, it was a sunset cruise, which far surpasses a dinner at yet another restaurant. Jill met me at Buzzard's Roost, which was great. I am local, but for folks who aren't, this is a great extra! I got to meet Suzy, their rescue, who was very sweet. Captain Glenn took us from ocean side to bay side to Nest Key for sunset. Close to Nest Key, we encountered at least 25 dolphin feeding. We sat and watched and them when we started to move away, the dolphin wanted to play in the boat's wake. Could not have imagined such a special experience to celebrate a birthday!!! My friends brought refreshments and Lucky Fish supplied reusable cups and also had a tank of water. A plus is their actual head (toilet) aboard. Their cat is a perfect size for 6 passengers. It is well appointed, spotless and very stable. Highest praise for Jill, Glenn and Suzy!

We decided not to let the pandemic spoil our 4th of July celebration and spent the holiday in Key Largo. After seeing the larger dive operations with their packed boats of 30+ people all weekend and the COVID-19 outbreak reaching an all-time high in Florida, we made the smarter decision to do a private dive with Lucky Fish Scuba. Captain Glenn and Jill took my dad, my sister and me to the perfect location for our first ocean dive. We had the best time! We were so happy to have the extra attention and instruction as new divers. It was such a stress-free experience. We were able to book the dive last minute, and all of the necessary equipment was on the boat ready for us when we arrived. The boat was beautiful and clean. The equipment was very new and in top condition. Glenn gave us tips to improve our scuba skills. Jill provided snacks and unlimited reef-friendly sunscreen. We even got a video of the dive to share will the rest of our family! I highly recommend using Lucky Fish Scuba if you plan to dive in Key Largo!

The dives, most were on Molasses reef with a few others including Christ of the Abyss and the Benwood wreck. The visibility varied by day. The best thing about their dives is that they are fairly shallow 20 to 35 ft So it is very safe , ideal for beginners and great if you have not dove in a while.
