Not the keys. but there's one I'm going on that is out of Miami and does the southern bahamas down into Cay Sal Banks.

She's a 3-masted schooner and only takes 12 pax plus crew. Private staterooms. You get to help sail and one of the divemasters is also a Marine Biologist from Brazil who conducts lectures on marine life. Price is around $1250 pp.

Doesn't dove the Keys but if you are looking for something close to that area it might be an option.

The Keys aren't really great liveaboard territory. Most dive sites are within a few miles of shore so it's easier to stay in a hotel and take day boats. There are great sites all the way up and down the keys so a driving trip to see many would be great fun.

I've heard of Dry Tortugas liveaboards, but don't know of any that are operating at the moment.

If you need advice as to operators, check the Conch Divers section of the board or feel free to ask me.

P.S. I see angelfish on almost every dive including a pair of Grays that live on the Busch.

What are you looking for. I second the Playmate, I liked their operation. But it is mainly a hunting boat.
