Planning a 7 night September trip. Flying into West Palm Beach. Planning on a split stay between LBTS/Palm Beach area and upper Keys. I will dive 4 days. I would like to dive with Jupiter Dive Center and Conch Republic. Traveling with a non-diver/sometimes snorkeler.
LBTS/Palm Beach - Definitely want to stay at a resort on a nice beach. Currently looking at Lago Mar. I would like to stay at a similar place but closer to Jupiter Dive Center, if possible. We are drinkers so I want to stay at a place with a nice beach bar and not ridiculously priced drinks. Lago Mar prices are high but not ridiculous like the Breakers. Any recommendations? Looking for big marine life so that is why I'm set on Jupiter. Would I get this in LBTS area?
Upper Keys - Plan on diving with Conch Republic or another Key Largo operator. Looking for a place to stay that is close to a lot of activity (bars, restaurants...). When not diving, we will be hanging out at a waterfront bar so ideally I would like a hotel very close to fun bars. Something around $150/night. I've looked at a few in Islamorado. Any recommendations? I've also looked at Hawk's Cay Resort, but that would mean diving with them (which I've read very good reviews about). Is the diving here comparable to Key Largo?
Lastly, I would like to take my gf on a snorkel charter. She will probably tag along on the dive boat on one trip but I would like to take her on a separate charter. What is a good one in the Keys?
Thanks!!!
