 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Captain Mike took us out to Looe Key reef to snorkel and then went fishing until dark. Captain Mike is a super good guy, easygoing and patient.  Perfect boat and captain for an inexperienced group like us.  We had a great time.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a great afternoon combo trip with Captain Mike. We snorkeled at Looe Key Reef, went fishing, and watched a lovely sunset. Beautiful waters and sights. Saw an amazing spotted eagle ray which was the highlight of the entire trip. Can’t wait to eat our catch! Thank you Captain Mike. Looking forward to next time!
