About Reef, Wildlife & Weather
We are very lucky that so many days here in Islamorada look exactly like the beautiful photos 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 clear 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.
December thru March - water & air temperatures maybe cooler, bring light sweater or jacket.
