Marathon Snorkel Trip – Explore the Hidden Gems of the Florida Keys

Join Captain Hook’s Dive Team for an unforgettable snorkeling adventure in the “Best Kept Secret in the Florida Keys.” Dive into the crystal-clear waters of Marathon to discover vibrant marine life at stunning shallow patch reefs. Whether you’re a seasoned snorkeler or new to the experience, our trips cater to all levels, offering ample opportunities to explore the underwater world from the surface or take a closer look by diving down.

We take you to two different reef locations per trip, giving you one hour at each site to explore. The specific locations are chosen based on daily weather, wind, and visibility conditions, ensuring optimal snorkeling experiences.
