Your Key West Adventures
1-305-900-6060
Abundance and variety being the key words in Key West -- you were thinking maybe "moderation"? -- that is also the rule when deciding on which scuba adventure best fits your party -- where to go, how far, and how deep.
Six miles out, in twenty feet of water, there are a million things to see -- all breathing. North America's only living coral reef has between 30 to 40 separate sites to pick from, the final decision being the captain's based on that day's weather and visibility.
If man-made coral is more your thing, there are plenty of wrecks to dive, at varying depths, offering varying sights and challenges. Not a certified diver? No problem. Key West Water Adventures can arrange instruction in the morning that will have you diving that afternoon.
And there's spear-fishing, there's night fishing, there's lobstering, there's diving with dolphins. In Key West, the scuba choices are truly ... bottomless.
We also offer multi-day trips ( all inclusive ) on our 60 ft. Live-aboard Yacht “The Playmate.” We offer Trips to the Dry Tortugas, Marquesas Islands, and multi-day trips to Bimini Trail and the Bermuda Triangle. Call us for details.
Dive! Dive! Dive!
Alexander's Wreck, a US Navy destroyer escort, lies in two pieces approximately 200 yards apart on the gulf side of Key West, in only 26 feet of water, making it an excellent first wreck dive for new divers.
Joe's Tug lies at a depth of 68 feet, accessible to most open-water certified divers. The hull was ripped open by Hurricane George, providing shelter for schools of snapper as well as the giant grouper known as Jewfish. The dive is interesting not only for the wreck itself, but for the surrounding deep reef.
The 187-foot-long Cayman is an oceangoing salvage vessel rich with sealife, particularly green morays and other eels, and Jewfish. While the deck lies at 72 feet, the ship's maximum depth is at approximately 93 feet. Advanced certification or a log book showing recent diving experience below 80 feet is required for this dive.
Finally, there's the Vandenburg, whose service as a troop transport in World War II tells only a part of her story. Now the world's second-largest man-made reef, she lies in 150 feet of water and is for experienced divers only. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.
