Looking for 2-4 people to join Dry Tortugas Trip 12/30 or 12/31 (2025)

Hi, my wife and I will be in the Florida Keys right around New Years. We are very interested in diving the Dry Tortugas.

Finz (finzdivecenter.com) has a public charter once a week on Thursdays, which unfortunately this year falls on January 1. As my wife and I had planned to celebrate NYE in Key West, this is not the best choice for us. (I asked Finz if they would consider moving the public charter, and they declined to do that).

So, I wanted to check interest here to see if anyone else would be interested in splitting a charter to Dry Tortugas. Cost would be $2800 for the Freeman (their older boat) or $3300 for the Park Shark (their new dive boat with gyroscopic tech). The Park Shark is available 12/30 and 12/31 right now, the Freeman is only available 12/30 (I asked if they could accommodate us with whomever booked the Freeman on 12/30, but it sounds like that the moment they are full with six divers). Our preference would be 12/30 but we could also do 12/31.

We would be willing to split costs with anywhere from 2 to 4 additional people, so post here if you're interested!

Are you diving Inside the park boundaries or outside the park boundaries? I must say their new enclosed air conditioned CAT looks really sweet !

We planned to dive within the park but are happy to discuss that aspect (or any part of the plan) with potential dive buddies

We visited the Dry Tortugas last year. It’s beautiful out there!! I’d definitely love to dive them some day, Unfortunatly, I’m unable to join you both on this trip. I already have a commitment the last week of 2025. Best of luck finding buddies to make the trip a GO!
