And the countdown to the Keys begins!

[cdkmoss]

We're headed to the Florida Keys the end of this month. We will be staying in Marathon, Florida. Any suggestions on places to go or if you can suggest any outfits to dive with, that would be greatly appreciated! It's our first time in the Keys.

Welcome!!

We have used Captain Hooks a few times, and plan to use them again when we're in Marathon in June/July. Good op, nice boats, great staff, and we like that they have dive packages where the more days you dive, the more discount you get. They provide a dive guide on every dive - if you want, or you can do your own thing. They were also nice enough to keep our gear (after we rinsed it) each day in their gear locker so we didn't have to lug it back & forth.

Also check out Keys Fisheries (3502 Gulfview Ave, Marathon) for lunch/dinner ... really good seafood specials and right on the water. And if you don't want to eat there, you can just buy fresh fish from the storefront and take it home and cook it yourself!
