We were fortunate enough to receive a discounted rate on our package, as our friend who was on vacation with us is a retired Navy veteran. My wife purchased the full package which included all of the amenities on the transport boat (food, drinks), parasailing, jet skis, obstacle course, banana boat rides, kayaking, snorkeling, and paddle boarding. We were unable to book our slot during the weekend, but were able to secure Memorial Day, which we thought would be a slow day for an excursion but boy were we wrong. We were one of the first to arrive in the morning to sign in and fill out all the paperwork and shortly after droves of people starting coming in. The boat was at max capacity and unfortunately it kind of screwed up what could have been a perfect day. Fortunately, we were the first group called for parasailing and right after we finished parasailing, they called us to meet with a second captain to take us jet skiing. I've never been parasailing before and have always been scared to try it. I don't like heights and have a fear of drowning; I had no fear at all during the entire process and I had a total blast. The jet ski situation was pretty much a waste. When we arrived to the dock the dockmaster was pissed off and had an attitude because the groups that were supposed to be docked were still out screwing around which took time off our ride. You literally only get 10-minutes and since my wife and I were together we had to share a jet ski. There is no way to know when your supposed to return to the dock until the dockmaster waves you in. We basically ended up swapping drivers after a few minutes so we both would have an opportunity to drive. Once we were back to the main ship it was time for lunch. The food was actually better than I expected. Pulled pork, large all beef hotdogs, salad, chicken nuggets, fresh green beans, and several other options I can't remember at the moment, but I remember that it was all pretty good and I ate my fill. After lunch we spent the remainder of our time out in the water having fun. The obstacle area had a huge inflated trampoline and rock-climbing area. The kayaking was limited to the areas around the ship but you could go out to a section further away from the group to snorkel near the coral reef. The banana boat ride was a lot of fun too but be warned if you're on there with a group that wants to go fast you are along for the ride. Something to note is that you cannot enter the water once you start drinking and there were two options of draft beer available that is included with the package. They have plenty of other drink options but you pay extra for them. The staff were very friendly and the ship was kept clean. Overall, we had a blast and I would do this again. Knowing what I know now, I will call ahead of booking our excursion to verify occupancy.

I was looking for an experience that wasn't your typical beach day, and to get out on the water for more than 4 hours, and after lots of looking and searching, came upon Sunset for a 5 hour sandbar and dolphin excursion with snorkeling included! When we arrived, check-in was super easy, and it was out in an area that you can walk around, get food/drinks, or shop while you wait to get on the boat. Everything was included for us in this venture. The captain, Dave and Nick took great care of us from the moment we took way! From the instructional safety recap in the beginning, to the opening of the bar, and them keep us full from the sandos, chicken strips, fruit and hummus, we had everything we needed for our adventure! While on the way to our dolphin seeing adventure, we jammed out with great tunes that anyone could jam out to. Again, Nick and Dave were on it with the customer service. Always lending a hand, asking if we needed anything and just being their amazing selves! As we got to the sandbar, we all jumped ship, literally!!! And got to spend just over 2.5 hours out on the sandbar! If it hadn't been for a storm coming our way, we may have gotten just a little more time out there, but Captain made sure we had a wonderful boat ride back, got to see even more dolphins! It was such a great trip, and even the other passengers on board, we had such a great group, everyone was super nice and interactive. It made for one of the best days we've ever had! Will certainly be using you all in the future!

I loved the experience here. Really friendly crew who took care of us really well and followed a lot of safety procedures. Snorkeled at 2 different places and then had some beer and champagne enjoying the sunset on the way home. The water was not as clear as I expected probably due to the storm that happened a few days before. There was a mix of people on the board, including young folks and families with kids. Got to talk with really nice four guys from France who were attending FIT. Truly enjoyable I would do this again.

Ragz booked us the sunset dinner cruise on our last day here in key west today. He did so without looking at yelp reviews ( blasphemy, I know!) and I am kinda glad he did! Because I'm honestly not sure what led to the poor ratings on yelp - we had an absolute blast throughout the 2 hour sail! The crew was super friendly and the DJ played some fun tunes. The cruise leaves at 5 and you check in a starting 4:15 pm. They definitely want you there by 4:45 at the latest. We started on the top deck for about 40 min before dinner opened up. This gave us a chance to witness an absolutely gorgeous sunset over the ocean with sail boats all around us. Keep in mind that this cruise never really leaves the Bay Area - I think at most we were maybe 0.1 miles away from the pier at all times. The purpose is for you to witness the sunset and the calm waters around you while enjoying dinner. The captain did a good job of making sure that every side of the boat got a beautiful view. There is a bar on deck ( you can upgrade to premium drinks for $20 per person), but most drinks are included in the original $79.99 price. For what we witnessed, I think the price is more than fair. They open the buffet for about an hour 15 and it felt like more than enough time - there were only about 40 folks on our dinner cruise. The food was surprisingly tasty - I didn't expect that really. Started with a house salad and choice of 2-3 dressings, and Cuban bread and butter. I skipped the black beans but the rice was delicious. The island chicken was my favorite - slightly sweet with bits of pineapple and very juicy. Ragz liked the pulled pork too and the mahi mahi was cooked well. The jerk corn was also very well done. They don't offer dessert which was a bit of a bummer, but not a big deal. The crew made rounds offering drinks and picking up after patrons. Most people went back for seconds - kudos to the chef honestly! The cruise lasts the entire 2 hours they promise. Lots of time to linger around the DJ post dinner. His tunes were more party after dinner and folks loved dancing too! All in all, a really fun trip and I'd recommend it to people going to key west and wanting a sunset sail! Thanks, crew!

Parasailing today with Rachael and Wyatt! Totally awesome trip! Nothing bad about it, great experience!

Parasailing with Logan & Logan was an unforgettable experience. I am not a fan of heights but from their awesome (horribly funny) jokes, to there knowledge and experience on the water and about the area, it made it easy to forget and just enjoy being in the sun and on the water (and in the wind). These 2 are fantastic. We had such an amazing time and will definitely book again next year!

Golf cart
Russ P.

Reserved a golf cart for the week during Christmas. Booked it months ahead of time. When we arrived at the resort, they had no record of our rental. After several calls, we determined a trainee booked our reservations and didn't tie it to the resort we were at so there wasn't anything on site for us. Uber'd to the pick up spot on the other side of the island. Picked up the cart with no issues. Lady that checked us in was nice and helpful. Took off and got a few blocks away and the cart died right in the middle of the road. Finally got it going again. Went right back to where we picked up the cart. They didn't have any other carts available. As we were discussing options, someone returned one. A little poorer shape than the previous one but supposedly it ran. So we took off. Still had similar issues with it where it wouldn't run when you pushed the gas but we made due. The side mirrors were loose and would constantly have to be adjusted. After a little while of riding, we could smell a strong gas smell. The gas cap was barely on. No harm, no foul there. The speed barely met what would be considered to be an LSV. 20mph on flat surface. Over a bridge, forget about it. I personally own a golf cart so I know how they should run. Our other family members rented from another company. Much nicer cart, much faster, and less money. The nice thing was we were able to leave it at the resort at the end of the trip and not have to return it which would have been a pain. Our other family members were able to do the same thing. Maybe we just got two duds for vehicles. Trying to give them the benefit of the doubt. I would have hoped that since we reserved so far in advance and had it for a week that the company would have set aside one of their nicer and well serviced vehicles. I would suggest you shop around as I saw plenty of golf cart rental companies with newer and nicer vehicles.

"The Dazz" (my cousin and I) went parasailing and we had a blast!! Thank you.

Sunset water sports- Our group name was "The Dazz" (my cousin and I) ladies had a blast. At first I was skeptical because of the weather, thunder and lightning. The water was choppy. The captain assure me that the weather will be clearing up around 12 PM. Sure enough about 1pm, it did and we were able to get on the activities I wanted the most. It all worked out had a blast! We went on Saturday September 6, the entire group was amazing thanks to them for making it a fabulous one.

Dakota was an amazing jet ski guide. My family of four had a great time touring around the island. Highly recommend the jet ski tour out of Cow Key Marina!!

Dolphins

We took a boat charter for dolphins and swimming at a sandbar. The captain/crew were great. The water was beautiful, and we got to see a lot of dolphins. Drinks and food were also included. The dolphin and sandbar trip is also a smaller boat. I would recommend it for little kids, because the sandbar is shallow enough for them to swim. It was a great way to spend our one day in Key West!

See all

My fiancé and I booked online with Lost Reef Adventures for our first ocean dives. We were…read morecertified back in October in a fresh water quarry. The day we went, the waves were pretty choppy. I got in the water and panicked. Kelly, our guide, expertly made sure I got back to the boat. Spencer, our dive master, helped me up and reassured me the whole time. I got to spend the next couple hours hanging out with Spencer and robin (the captain), which honestly, was a great time. What I loved is how committed they were to safety, and also making me feel valid in my decision to abort the dives. My partner successfully completed two dives and had a fantastic experience with Kelly guiding him. If/when we're back in key west again for diving, we will definitely book with Lost Reef again!!

Lost Reef Adventures...the worst dive shop that I have encountered in 30 years of scuba diving…read more The negatives: The owner, Nick, was extremely unfriendly to the point of being hostile. He had a serious attitude problem and had no idea what the concept of "customer service" meant. He just stares at you, waiting for you to say something...it's really creepy. After telling us to show up at 7:00 for the morning dives, no one from the shop bothered to show up until 7:45. The crew was only okay. The dive master acted like this was an annoyance to be taking us out on a dive...like he just wanted to get this over and done with. He just swam around for 45 minutes until it was time to re-board. The boat pilot told us, "We're not leaving the dock until you get your gear ready." There was one guy (with a mullet and ear rings) that was pretty cool and very helpful. The equipment was fair, but had some issues. The first tank that I hooked up to only had 1200 psi, turns out that 1/4 of the tanks onboard had previously been used and not removed or refilled. The fact that they all had the rubber covers on the valve (indicating a fresh tank) made it very confusing as to which tank to use. My dive buddy's regulator was inoperable. The dives were fair at best. I guess Key West really isn't that great for sea life when compared to the USVI or Belize, buy the dive master didn't even bother to point out sea life. EVERY dive I've been on in 30 years had a dive master that took pride in his/her job and did their best to point out - things to see - during the dive. I told the travel office on the base at Sigsbee not to recommend them. There are vastly superior shops like Southpoint Divers and Captain's Corner that will give you a much more pleasant experience. I dove with Southpoint on all of my subsequent dives in Key West. The positives: The boat was great - lotsa space for everyone, safety equipment was plentiful, and the safety briefing was well done. As I mentioned before, one of the crew (lives in Roatan, Honduras and was visiting his daughter) was very helpful but unfortunately, he was the exception. The BCDs, masks, and fins were fine. There's not really anything else positive that came out of my experiences. Do yourself a favor and use one of the other dive shops in Key West.
