Loved the sunset cruise. Beer was cold and the sailboat was amazing. Not crowded and casual. Captain and first mate were very nice and friendly. Book online and save.

5 of 5 starsReviewed March 25, 2015 NEW

This was my second snorkeling trip in Key West, and much better than the first. That boat packed the customers in, where 50 people are fighting for a spot on the rail, then on top of each other in the same snorkeling area. However this one had plenty of room to move around and enjoy the view, without bodies in the way. The two crew members, Alexis and Shannon, were wonderful and truly helped make this a first class experience. Service and the customer's experience truly were the priority.

With Floridays, my wife and I enjoyed the snorkeling trip so much, we booked the sunset cruise a few days later. The experience was identical. This is the best snorkeling excursion and sunset cruise in Key West!

Wonderfully run outfit

5 of 5 starsReviewed March 12, 2015

we went snorkeling with Alexis and Floridays and had a perfect day. So good, in fact, that we rebooked with them this year. Unfortunately, though the day was beautifully sunny, Alexis told us when we got there that the conditions weren't good: high winds, very choppy, poor visibility. We decided not to go and Alexis could not have been more accommodating - creating flexibility to work is in another day, and then when the weather didn't clear up, refunding our money. As we watched other boats go out on what we're surely uncomfortable, disappointing trips, we were so thankful we had booked with Floridays. Could not ask for better customer service - last year, when we went out, and this year, when we did not. Thank you Alexis - we will be back!

Fantastic excursion

5 of 5 starsReviewed March 9, 2015

This was a perfect Key West trip. The boat is beautiful and the two women who were our crew were simply fantastic. It was a little choppy who we went out and they gave us great advice about where to snorkel, handling waves, etc. we had our kids with us so it was particularly welcome.
Totally worth every penny and a great tip to the crew! Could not recommend more highly. Next time we will try the sunset sail!

Perfect Key West Experience!

We just got off the boat and I couldn't wait to write this amazing review! The 5 of us on our girls trip had a great time with our afternoon snorekling your! This price and reef was 10x as good as the snorkeling I did in Mexico 2 months ago... I highly recommend!

professional and considerate

There were only 4 people on board and the sea was rough but the delightful young crew went all out. They made us comfortable and took us to a great location. Not at all like the 'partyboats' that are out there and that dont take care of the coral. These people are careful and honest and environmental.

Wonderful!

We had a group of 6 girls attend for a bachelorette party. Location was convenient to downtown Duval (walk through Hyatt Resort & Spa) and boat left on time. Delightful crew, Capt. Mike and Stephanie made us feel right at home, took many pictures of our group and filled up our drinks as needed!

Only negative was our own fault, we went in February and wished we had brought blankets or towels as it was cool when the sun went down!

Outstanding experience!

I live in KW and have enjoyed several trips on the Floridays. but they really went all out to accomodate all of our needs. Capt. Mike and first mate Stephanie (I hope I got that name right) were friendly but professional. The boat itself was perfect for our small wedding party, plenty of comfortable seating, and very clean. Locals and out of towners agreed: A+!! The most stress free wedding ever!

Great Sunset Cruise

Reviewed October 1, 2014

This was our seond time to travel with Captain Alex and her fist mate Savannah on a sunset cruise. They made the trip fun and relaxing. You could tell these ladies knew exactly what to do when it came to taking the boat out on the water and keeping us safe. We went out on the boat for 2 hours or so to watch the sun go down. The waters were calm and the scenery beautiful. Great views of the ocean and sky. There was 20 people on the boat and 3 adults in our party. Lots of time to take pictures and chat with people. Beverages were provided. The cost was reasonable for the trip and this is something, we would do again.

Excellent Experience

Reviewed September 20, 2014

My wife and I went out on the Floridays morning snorkeling trip. Captain Mike along with crew, Shannon and Morgan, were great. We were looking for a smaller trip and a more relaxed experience. Floridays delivered that in spades. We were not able to go to the reef, as Captain Mike advised us that it was a bit too rough and the jellyfish were pretty bad. Instead we went to a wreck at another spot.

Saw a lot of fish and seeing the wreck was pretty cool. You could still see the mast and make out the remains of the hull. We were also able to get great shots with our GoPro!

Memorable sunset cruise

Reviewed August 25, 2014

Floridays does it the right way! They don't pack a boat to max capacity like some other KW sunset cruise outfits, but they SAIL you on a breathtaking sunset cruise. Comfort of their guests are their priority. Mike and Shannon were FANTASTIC! High accolades to the two of them. Mike chatted with my Mom and Shannon loved my Mom's "sippy cup" lol. They served snacks and wine, beer, margaritas, soda, etc. There is a head on board and the ambience was perfect for a small group. Well done Floridays!! Highly recommended

Snorkel and Sail

Reviewed August 17, 2014

The trip on the sailboat was excellent. The snorkel area was a little rough but it is in open water. The keys are a little more grey than say Hawaii but it gives you the big picture of the Florida experience. The crew was the best and went to great lengths to ensure that all on board were well taken care of, safe and relaxed.

Personal Experience.

Reviewed August 16, 2014

This sailboat cruise/snorkel was fantastic! Captain Alexis and Shannon were amazing crew on Floridays. Both were very knowledgable about Key West and offered laughs for the journey out to sea. Since this sail offers 16-20 passengers you feel you are obtaining a much more personal experience on board. The entire deck is yours ladies for the taking if you would like to lay out. Guys-you're on a sailboat-nowhere else you should want to be. There is a head(bathroom) on board with lots of space below deck. However, the view is topside overlooking Key West and the surrounding keys. Today's snorkeling was amazing! The visibility was 80ft. Grouper, sharks, lobster, urchins...etc. Everything your childish heart desires! Shannon kept us hydrated and the Captian Alexis kept the tunes going. Take a seat and enjoy the ride. Maybe next time we'll enjoy the sunset with these two pretty ladies!
Thanks!!

My wife and I had planned on going along just for the ride since we were both novice swimmers.( Snorkeling was not on our agenda) However, after watching Alexis and Shannon in action we felt comfortable enough to try snorkeling. We had a blast! Alexis and Shannon were very knowledgable, professional, and friendly. This was one of the highlights of our trip to Key West!

Wonderful

I am not the bravest person on the water and when I first arrived on the dock and saw this beautiful sailboat and not a cat, my heart took a dive. My husband wanted to have a snorkel trip without the crowd , only 12 guests aboard. Well the sea was a little rough, but Alexis and Shannon did a wonderful job getting us to the snorkel sight. Enjoyed our snorkeling time and went by so quickly. The sail back was much smoother and so enjoyable. Later that night we went on the sunset cruise with Mike and Shannon, total sail and beautiful sunset. Jon and I had so much fun. Saved the best for the last day. Highly recommend and have fallen in love with sailing. Will never go on one of the catamarans with so many packed on board. Thank you Alexis, Shannon and Mike, you made our experience perfect.

The captain, Alexis, and first mate, Stephanie, were super knowledgable and accommodating. On the way back they were quick to make sure we didn't get thirsty. (They provide all the drinks, alcohol included, as part of the trip price.) The price is very affordable for the great time. The fish that we saw were amazing.

Best in Key West!!

Reviewed July 20, 2014

Floridays is by far the best trip in Key West! I am in KW often and it's the only boat I will go out on. Compared to the big operators Floridays offers a personal and private experience on their beautiful sailboat. The captain and staff are always so great and fun to talk to, I always enjoy the relaxed and fun atmosphere. Don't miss this great boat and crew next time you're in Key West!! Visited July 2014

I've been on a couple of snorkeling excursions, and this by far was the best. The crew keeps the groups small (there were 11 of us), which makes for a very enjoyable experience. The captain and first mate spent a lot of time explaining the things we would see. I highly recommend them and will definitely be back on our next Keys excursion.

Best cruise in Key West

Reviewed July 5, 2014

I've been on two sunset sails with the Floridays and one snorkeling trip and must say that the Floridays is by far the best crew and boat that I've been out with in the 20+ years that I've been visiting Key West. The crew is fun, friendly, and won't hesitate to strike up a conversation with you if that's what you're looking for. I've had three amazing trips with them and honestly can't recommend them any more highly. Don't waste your time or money on one of the more touristy (and overcrowded) boats on the island...the Floridays takes much smaller groups for a great price and is by FAR a much better value. If you're on the fence about taking a trip with them, just relax and go for it! Visited July 2014

Once again, top notch

5 of 5 starsReviewed June 12, 2014

This was our second trip on Floridays. The first was a few years ago and it was outstanding. This one was at least at good. As always the crew is fun, friendly, and works hard to make sure everyone has a good time. Alexis and Stephanie make sure to spend a little time talking with all their guests and make sure everyone has whatever they need to make it a memorable trip. The weather was wonderful and the sunset was outstanding . Despite concerns about getting enough of a breeze, they were able to catch a good wind and we were doing 7-8 knots on calm seas and it was simply a great trip. All of our group raved about the cruise the rest of the week. Thank you very much.

Great Snorkeling, Crew, etc.

We took the 10am Sail/Snorkeling trip with Alexis and Stephanie. They were great. We sailed the entire way to and from the reef. At the reef, they made sure to select an anchor point away from other boats. Plenty of fish. Overall very enjoyable experience - definitely recommend

Great snorkeling

5 of 5 starsReviewed June 2, 2014

Alexis and Stephanie were superb. We had a fabulous sale out to the reef, and a great snorkel experience. We agree with the other review her, it was very challenging to get off the boat after that experience. I think we could've spent a week on the boat.

Third time - and more to come

5 of 5 starsReviewed May 26, 2014

This was our third trip on the Floridays, and there will be more. The first time, in 2006, we chartered the Floridays and were married on the deck just before sunset. Alexis was the first mate then. Absolutely the best :-)

Fast forward to 2012, and now 2014. Alexis is the captain now. There have been many upgrades to the deck, rails, and cabin, and we still love coming to the Floridays. No cramming 100 people on board. This is a much more intimate sail. We had plenty of room, and perfect views of the sunset. Champagne flowed, and the first mate (Shannon, i believe) was friendly and chatted with everyone unless needed by Alexis. We heard plenty of history, and plenty of stories about Key West notables - i think your experience depends on the day, and the level of interaction that comes from the guests.

Something to keep in mind: Wind and water conditions will be more pronounced on this size of sailboat.. They will not sail if conditions are unsafe, but you still might find it a tad bumpy when the winds are up! If you're prone to seasickness, and it's rough out, go on a larger vessel or wait till a quieter day.

Perfect morning of cruising and snorkeling

5 of 5 starsReviewed May 23, 2014

We wanted to avoid the tour companies with big catamarans and 100+ guests so we opted for Floridays and their beautiful sailboat. Two crew, 16 guests. It was perfect.

No wind meant we had to motor out to the coral reef, but it also meant perfect snorkeling conditions.

The crew was great: friendly, fun, helpful.

One hour cruising out to the reef. An hour in the water. An hour cruising back (with beer & margaritas provided!).

This was a perfect low-key but active morning out on the water and a great alternative to the party atmosphere on some of the other boats.

The masks and snorkels provided were good quality as well. All you need is a towel and sunscreen!

This 60' sailboat has been our favorite for years. Captain Alexis is knowledgable, fun and so welcoming. This boat is NOT one of the "cattle boats" so often seen in Key West. We were out with them 3x last week and we never had more than 8 people on board. We have, in the past, had up to a dozen, but that's rare. Absolutely #1 for great snorkeling/sailing and beautiful sunset sails. Just do it.

Amazing trip

5 of 5 starsReviewed May 3, 2014

First I want to review the snorkeling -> The reef Alex and Shannon brought us to was beyond beautiful. The length of time on the reef was perfect for our group.

We were a party of 9 on a Girls weekend. There were 2 additional travelers on the boat so that made for only 11 passengers on a 60 foot sailboat that could accommodate many more.

Second the service was fantastic, Alex and Shannon catered to our every need. I would not hesitate to book again and I will be recommending Floridays to all of my friends and family. Thanks to Alex and Shannon for making our trip so memorable!

Back again and again

Of course there are options in Key West, but why mess with perfection? This is the third time we've been out with Alex and a first with Shannon her first mate. Why go somewhere else? I can't imagine. If you're in KW and you want a personalized snorkel/sunset trip and not a huge party catamaran (which can be fine depending on what you're looking for), then Floridays is the choice. It was as close to a private charter as we've gotten in KW and worth every penny. Alex and Shannon were more than awesome.

Floridays caps snorkeling trips at 16 passengers; we had 6. Very personalized trip to reef with lots of instruction on the way. Equipment is clean and well maintained. Conditions were slightly rough on way out, but Captain Alexis talked everyone through the adventure. The reef was impressive, with sightings of yellow tail, zebra fish, blue tang, and for the more adventurous, barracuda and nurse sharks. Alcoholic beverages served on ride back to hotel. Great time.

Fun time

5 of 5 starsReviewed April 12, 2014

We went with Floridays for both their snorkeling trip and their sunset cruise. Sunset cruise was sailing, very relaxing, small group - we didn't want a party boat. The snorkeling trip is one hour out, one hour snorkelling, and one hour back - so if you want more snorkeling than one hour, it's not a fit - but one hour was good with me. Well run.

Awesome for teens to grandparents

5 of 5 starsReviewed April 8, 2014

Wanted to find a snorkeling trip for two families with teens. Booked with Floridays and everyone raved about adventure! Enough on--your-own time for teens and parents while exploring underwater world around National Wildlife preserve. Saw over twenty kinds of fish, lots of coral, a shipwreck, and even a sea turtle! Vessel was perfect size for a few families, and trip length suited us for the 2 pm departure. Returned at 5 pm to clean up for dinner and night on the town. Captain and first mate knew so much about local history and ocean life. Want to return!

Fantastic snorkeling

5 of 5 starsReviewed April 3, 2014

My family and I recently booked a snorkeling tour with Floridays in Key West. I made the reservation for a Tuesday about two weeks in advance. Within about 3 days of our trip, Alexis called to tell me that the weather on Tuesday didn't look as good as Monday's weather, so we switched our reservation. I thought that was really great because we would have had to cancel our trip if it had taken place on Tuesday because the weather did, indeed, turn bad. The crew was super helpful and friendly and knew exactly what they were doing. We had a lovely sail out to the reef, snorkeled for about an hour and saw some amazing fish and even swam with a sea turtle! We got back on the boat, had drinks and cruised back. Everything about the trip was so wonderful. At one point I looked over at another "snorkel tour" boat that was absolutely jam-packed with people like sardines. Our boat was huge and there were only about 12 or so of us making for a very spacious and relaxed trip. I cannot say enough great things about this company. If you are in Key West, you need to call Floridays!!!!

Great snorkelling, great people (...and good sharks!)

5 of 5 starsReviewed March 12, 2014

We were only in Key West for an extended weekend and so we didnt want to jam our schedule, but we thought it would be silly to go so far south and not snorkel. We were a little put off by the big cruise crowds and the huge day trip groups you could see on some of the boats going out, but after talking to the awesome conceirge at the Westin, she asked straight away if we wanted big or small, cheaper or more exclusive. We went the latter and it was still only $65 for a half day trip. Very happy.

So, next morning we were greeted by two ladies running a large yacht and were two of only six people for a morning trip out the the reef, with an hour of snorkelling, and a relaxed trip back. Fantastic. Simply awesome. We've snorkelled in a bunch of places around the Carribean, and while we missed seeing any turtles, we saw a reef shark, thousands of fish, had great visibility, and it was just all so relaxed and casual. Nothing was too difficult, nothing was a challenge, and between the two of them they had answers to even the most esoteric non-boating questions (e.g. best scenic route back to Miami? Where to go for lunch? Where's the best place for Blues music?).

I really cant speak highly enough of the whole experience, I just wish I could have tipped them more as we got back to Key West!!

Outstanding 1st Snorkel Trip for Kids

5 of 5 starsReviewed February 18, 2014

It was the first time our 7 and 10 y/o kids 1) swam in open sea and 2) snorkeled, and the Floridays excursion created the best possible experience. Unlike other snorkel excursions where there are 50-100 people on the boat, the Floridays sailboat takes a limited number of guests, resulting in a peaceful and relaxing sail to and from the reef (vs. the pre-dive/snorkel chaos common on bigger boats). Captain Alexis and First Mate Shannon were personable and laid back, our family felt cared for and welcome. No one got seasick but we felt it wouldn't be embarrassing if we did. Shannon's thorough and knowledgeable snorkel briefing left the adults laughing, and our kids feeling confident and excited to get in the water. The reef was full of sea life, the water clear, the snorkel equipment clean and in excellent shape. When we get back to the Keys, we'll be booking with Floridays. * Sidenote: Before coming to FL our kids practiced using their masks and snorkels in the bathtub and swimming pool, which made for a great day on the reef.

Really enjoyable sunset cruise

5 of 5 starsReviewed February 14, 2014

The Floridays sailboat sunset cruise was recommended by a good friend who lives in Key West. We walked to it's docking area and did have a little trouble finding it as Hyatt owns other properties on the water, so got misdirected a couple of times. Nevertheless, we got there in time, found coupons to discount the trip, and clambered on board. A really spacious sailboat with a great crew--Mike at the helm and Shannon as first mate for our trip, both very personable and great to talk to. The boat was clean, and well maintained. We motored out of the harbor, then the sails were lifted. Shannon didn't neglect anybody with prepared margaritas, champagne, wine, beers soft drinks and snacks. There were only 8 customers aboard, so it wasn't crowded and we all had terrific views of other boats, coastline, and sunset. Mike positioned us well going into the final minutes before the sun went down so we could all take good pictures or just have a great view. The Caribbean music wasn't objectionable and played at an ok volume as has become a normal part of sunset cruises, but I could do without that personally. We found this a great experience and well worth the cost to experience the Key West sunset on the water.

This was one of my favorite sunset cruises during our stay in Key West. Alexis and Mitchell were great company and created a relaxing atmosphere. I really enjoyed seeing all the sailboats tacking across the water that evening including the American 2.0. The Floridays sailboat is privately owned so there is greater care with keeping the group intimate and the boat overall. I would love to return again and try the snorkeling tour with this group. I highly recommend this experience over the crowded and impersonal tours on the catamarans like Fury.

Alexis and Charla truly made our experience on the Floridays 60 foot sail boat a once in a lifetime memory. We're a family of 4 and very familiar with boating and water sports. Took a morning snorkel excursion and were impressed with the professionalism, down to earth nature and great company Capt. Alexis and mate Charla turned out to be. We were all pretty rusty when it comes to snorkeling and very thankful for their knowledgeable tips and hands on assistance. We went to a beautiful part of the reef and saw countless huge bright fish. On the way back to port, we were poured champagne and toasted to a great morning on the water. If you want a beautiful, relaxing, and educational excursion, book this as soon as you can. Oh and don't forget your free t-shirt at the end! Thank you Alexis!

My husband and I took an afternoon snorkel trip today with Floridays and had an awesome experience. The captain (Alexis) and first mate (Mitchell) treated us royally. The boat itself is a beautiful monohull sailboat, not one of the overstuffed catamarans that look like barges stuffed with people. We had a beautiful ride out to the reef and back. The snorkeling was excellent--we spotted many unique and colorful fish and had just the perfect amount of time. We were extremely well-cared for throughout the journey. And as an added bonus, I am 5 months pregnant and both Alexis and Mitchell took extra care to make sure I was comfortable. I cannot recommend them highly enough.

My husband and I just returned from a week in Key West and wanted to thank Alexis and Shannon for a fabulous time — we did the snorkeling trip in the morning and the sunset sail in the evening — both were incredibly wonderful experiences. The instruction, the conversation, and the sailing were all just terrific! It was the highlight of our trip.

Went on a Sunset Sail with Floridays....the weather was cooperating just until the sun went down, then the clouds got in the way. Didn't matter! It was so peaceful and enjoyable. Small, quite group, great music, great conversation. Would recommend this sail before any others.

Super day trip with wonderful team - couldn't have overcome my fears without their support!

5 of 5 starsReviewed October 20, 2013

Lovely sail out to the world's third largest coral reef on a beautiful sailship with wonderful team; skipper Alexis and first mate Shannon. This was my first snorkelling experience and is a bit intimidating an hour out into open water - to my surprise I panicked on jumping into the water and couldn't put my face below water without further panic settling in, but the crew recognised this promptly and Alexis jumped in to support me - with lots of gentle encouragement (I didn't feel rushed at any time) she coached me to build up confidence and before I knew it I was swimming off following colourful fish! Managed a full hour in the water, than back to sunbathe on deck for the hour-long return trip.

Gentle sail back with offerings of margharitas and other beverages (I could only stomach iced water due to sea sickness but the choice looked good!), spotting further fish and a sea turtle, before mooring back next to the Hyatt and wandering back onto dry land and up to Duvall St. Thanks to the team, especially Alexis, for helping me conquer my fear!

Loved it!

We had a terrific snorkeling trip on Floridays. We have done several of these trips over the years in different locations, and this one ranks as the most enjoyable. Not too many passengers booked, the boat itself was great, and Alexis and Shannon were the best hosts. Snorkeling was also good; saw lots of colorful fish, coral and plantlife. Highly recommend!

We booked our snorkeling trip through our Hotel and their recommendation was right on the money. We had perfect weather and Capt. Alexis and First Mate Shannon were gracious hosts. They made sure that everyone was comfortable and well prepared for our outing. The trip out and back was smooth. The only downside was even though we were out for an hour it seemed like 20 minutes. Afterwards Shannon made sure everyone was served their drink of choice on the return trip. I would recommend this trip to anyone visiting Key West. A great value!

The best way to see sunset in Key West.

5 of 5 starsReviewed October 2, 2013

This by far is the best way to see sunset in Key West. Captain Mike and his wife were outstanding host they made us feel right at home. I am not a fan of the large capacity boats, if you are looking for a large crowd with a bunch of drunks; this yacht is not for you. We had a beautiful sail out with wine and champagne. The atmosphere was like going out to sail with a few friends. Good music in the background and conversation on deck provided a great way to just unwind and relax into the island state of mind. We had all our questions answered and were given many great tips and advice on places to go and restaurants to try that were off the beat and path. This is a must if you want the feel of your own private sunset adventure. The boat is easy to find and if you go on Google maps put the street view person on the boat/earth zoom all the way in and click on the boat at the end of the Hyatt pier. We will definitely return on or next trip.

The trip that will make your vacation

5 of 5 starsReviewed October 1, 2013

The Floridays snorkel trip was the ultimate Key West experience. Unlike many touristy boat rides, packed with hundreds of people, Floridays offers a more private and interactive experience. The trip made me feel like I was just being taken out on the boat by good friends. When we arrived for our snorkel trip, we were immediately greeted by a friendly staff that made us feel very comfortable around the boat. They gave us excellent quality snorkel gear to use, and even offered us floats in case we were not strong swimmers so that we could still get the full snorkeling experience. The sail out offered breathtaking views of Key West, and really made me appreciate the trip I was on. The weather was beautiful, as always in Key West, so we were able to get a nice tan on the front of the boat as we sailed out. Once we got out to the reef, the visibility was great. Overall, the Floridays snorkel trip was a Key West must! Don't miss out, I would highly recommend this trip to anyone looking to visit Key West!

Worthy of Repeat Experiences!

5 of 5 starsReviewed September 15, 2013

Our first stop in KW each year - Floridays for a snorkel trip - so that we are sure we get it in! Never a disappointment.

Great boat - comfortable, safe, clean, bathroom on board. Crew (esp Captain Alexis) is helpful, accommodating, and safety conscious. Few folks on board (I think 12 has been the most we have ever sailed with), so it's not a cattle car. Rarely run into the cattle cars on the reef, but if they are there when we arrive, Floridays makes sure we are far enough away to avoid bumping into the cows in the water.

If conditions are right, Floridays does SAIL! An hour out; an hour back; and an hour on the reef. Morning departure is 10am, so early rising is not required. (A second snorkel trip leaves early afternoon.) Trip leaves from the Hyatt, so very convenient. Assistance in and out of the water takes the stress off. Crew prepares first time snorkelers and respects old hats. Reef is primarily 5 feet below surface, so the colors are spectacular, abundant with life, and there is plenty to keep you occupied for the hour you have in the water. Visibility is usually good to great. Pleasant sail back to port with libations provided once out of the water.

Book in advance online for a nice tee shirt!

Relaxing Sunset Cruise Sailboat Ride

What a great experience. Our party of 3 sailed with Capt. Alex and her first mate, Jen on a warm, cloudy day. Even though, we did not see a sunset the sailboat ride was really nice. We were able to take pictures with great views and sit at the very front of the boat where we enjoyed the ride. Capt. Alex and Jen made the trip fun and worked well as a team to know when to hoist the sails or adjust them. We sailed with a party of 20 or so and had lots of room to have a great view. Capt. Alexis was extremely professional and did a wonderful job of keeping us safe with the choppy waves we entered during out trip. The trip was reasonably priced and we sailed with adults not children for this adventure. Thanks for a nice trip Capt.!

I am a local here in Key West, and when my brother and his family visted from out of town Floridays was my first choice for a sunset cruise. It was very theraputic and relaxing.The crew was very interactive with the guests and readily answered their many questions regarding Key West. The crew was very informative, friendly and accomodating to my little nephew. They were very attentive to our glasses making sure we stayed well hydrated.

Best Sunset Sail in Key West

5 of 5 starsReviewed August 28, 2013

My husband Mike and I always take a sunset cruise when we visit Key West. This trip we sailed on the Floridays, a gorgeous ketch-rigged Irwin yacht. The two-woman crew — Captain Alexis and First Mate Shannon — was a delight: professional, friendly and very laid back.

Easily accessible, we boarded Floridays at the end of the dock at the Hyatt Resort Hotel in downtown Key West and were warmly welcomed aboard. Then we were off! The wind was strong all week and the night we sailed was no different. The ketch zipped along smoothly.

We shared our evening with the two other couples who had also booked the sunset sail. Truth to tell? It was like having the boat to ourselves: 60 foot yacht + 2 woman crew + 6 guests = 1 heavenly sail; we felt like we had chartered our own personal cruise! With wine (for me) and beer (for Mike) in hand, we sat back and enjoyed the motion of the ocean and the view of the horizon.

We would recommend both boat and crew highly. The yacht is recently refurbished and very beautiful. The crew is well trained, confident and capable...and also very beautiful.

Amazing Experience with Unforgettable Views

5 of 5 starsReviewed August 19, 2013

I just spent one week in Key West with my wife and two daughters (ages 19 and 21). We went out on the morning snorkeling trip on the Floridays and had the time of our lives. It is a beautiful sailboat with an incredibly friendly and knowledgeable staff. (Capt Alexis and First Mate Jen were great!). The fish we saw were some of the most beautiful I have seen anywhere in the world and they were literally everywhere around us. Jen even got in the water with us and took an underwater picture of our family for us. While sailing back from the reef Jen was always there with a fresh drink and she and Capt Alexis shared their vast knowledge of Key West, the reef and the fish we saw with everyone on the sailboat. We had such an amazing time on this trip that we decided to go out on the Sunset Sail the following evening. Capt Mike and First Mate Charla were equally knowledgeable and accommodating. I can't even begin to describe how awesome it was to watch a Key West sunset while feeling a nice breeze, drinking a glass of champagne and hearing the relaxing sound of sails lightly slapping in the breeze. Two years ago we went to Key West and went out on another companies snorkel and sunset sails. We had fun, but the experience we had with the Floriday's was second to none! This is a MUST do in Key West and if I could give the Floriday's more "stars" I would. We can't wait for our next trip to Key West so we can go out on the Floridays again.

We have been on Floridays before during the off season, when we had only about 8 people on the boat. This time it was a Memorial Day weekend and there were 17 people on our snorkel trip but there was still plenty of room to lay on deck and the service was excellent. The snorkel gear was practically new. The number one reason I'm glad we sailed with Floridays was when we saw another boat leave which looked like it had at least 100 people onboard. The captain of the boat was using a bullhorn to direct the passengers as they tried to count them. It was well worth the extra $20 to have a practically private charter.

I was on the afternoon trip on May 26 and it was wonderful. The captain (Alexis) and crew (Shannon) were very attentive and helpful. I believe the previous contributor must have been on the morning trip since we did sail on the return- which was fun. However, I had heard that the morning was much rougher. I could imagine the captain may have been focusing on driving the boat in those conditions and having less time to chat up the client. I found the captain and mate to be very friendly and interested in the clients on the afternoon trip - especially those that looked like they may not be completely comfortable on boats. The afternoon trip was great - sunny and relatively calm. The reef was beautiful. I would highly recommend this operator and plan to take this trip again the next time I am in Key West.

We've taken this sail several times, day and sunset, with kids and without. Every time has been a fantastic experience.

I signed on for a morning snorkel trip. The crew was professional and friendly, and the boat was immaculate. They limit the number of guests to something manageable, which is a nice distinction from the boats that cram 50 or so folks on board. On this trip, for instance, there were only 9 of us.
Because the day was a little too windy to head to the reef, the crew took us north into the gulf instead. They explained this modification to the trip before we even got on board, giving us the option of rescheduling if we desired. This slight hitch proved to be no hitch at all, however. The snorkeling was great, with colorful fish, large sponges, and even a large stingray that thrilled us all.
Floridays runs a professional, safe, and environmentally sensitive operation. The crew is knowledgeable and friendly. I highly recommend them if you are looking for a great way to see the life under the water!

We live in South Florida and go to the Keys often. This time my husband and I went to Key West to celebrate our 18th wedding anniversary. I am OBSESSED with sunsets so we decided to look into a sunset cruise. We were walking along the dock at The Hyatt when we came across Floridays . The crew was just finishing up with their morning cruise, but were happy to answer our questions. When they told me that they served Margaritas during the sunset cruise, that was the deciding factor! Honestly! It was just different from the norm of beer, wine or champagne.
( although they do serve those as well). When we returned later in the evening to set sail we were surprised to find that there was only one other couple on board, besides the crew. Thank goodness, because there is a 4 person minimum in order for them to leave the dock. The crew was very personable and welcoming. The captain ( sorry, I forgot his name) was very pleasant and engaged in conversation with everyone. I believe he actually owned the vessel, but was reluctant to come right out and say so! His wife was along for the ride as well and she too was pleasant. Jen, the first mate, was right on cue when it was time for another beverage or a snack. She busy putting up sails and working, but had plenty of time to chat with us There was also music playing, but not so loud that you couldn't hear one another. There is a "john" on board, but neither of us had to use it , so I can't comment on that. We have been on quite a few sunset cruises over the years and this was beyond a doubt, the BEST one we have been on. Nice and relaxing, with a yummy margarita in hand !

It was absolutely magical and so special - the crew was top notch, the beverages and fruit and cheese tray was abundant and sailing on this beautiful ship was enchanting. Jill London answered each and every question and more than met our expectations for a wonderful onboard experience.

4 of us from the Miami area are visiting in Key West for a few days and wanted to take a special snorkeling trip. The Hyatt had a special presentation for activities so we had quite a few to choose from. Tim did a good presentation and we felt that they were not as commercial as others. When the guys found out it was an all female crew they were elated! Captain Alexis and first mate, Jen were impressive and we felt we were in good hands from the get go. They handled the 60' boat very professionally and catered to us to make sure we had a great time. We had about an hour sail (and motor as winds not favorable) to Eastern Dry Rocks and were able to snorkel for an hour. We saw HUGE parrot fish, lobster, many other reef fish and, my favorite, moon jellies. Jen explained that they might be out there before we got in the water and said they were not particularly dangerous so I drifted with one and really got a chance to see this amazing sea animal up close. I had only seen them in aquariums and have always been fascinated. It was an awesome experience! After we got back on the boat for our return we were offered drinks and I opted for the Vernor's ginger ale. We arrived back on schedule and were able to see all the Navy ships at dock. What a great Key West experience. Thank you Floridays. When we return we will take another trip with you!

“So Awesome We Did Both Sunset and Snorkeling Trips!”

My husband and I were in Key West to celebrate our 10 year wedding anniversary along with my birthday. Our first trip with Floridays consisted of the Sunset Champagne Sailing trip with dinner after. I was blown away by how great Allexis and Jen are! Allexis was our Captain and is the main one for this company. Jen is her first mate and is just wonderful! We set out on a sail to watch the amazing sunset in Key West. The trip was just fantastic. Amazing views and Jen was willing to take a picture of us while we sailed. There is free beer, champagne, and margaritas available while sailing. We then pulled in for our dinner that was included in the package. It was really good. For the price, I could not have asked for more. I had the fish selection while my husband had the chicken selection. The next morning we boarded Floridays again for our snorkeling trip. We went out 7 miles to the reef and explored for about an hour. On the way out you cannot drink as this is smart because the sailing combined with snorkeling for an hour can be taxing on the body. The snorkeling was great. I swam with a sea turtle! For lunch I had the fish sandwich while my husband had the burger. This was even better than dinner! What a great deal Floridays has with the Hyatt! I recommend either package and if you can, book with Allexis and Jen. Also, the bartender at Blue Mojito was wonderful! Finally, there were many other boats out in the evening and Floridays won us over by their smaller groups and personal attention. We cannot wait to get back and do another trip! ~The Polks

“Perfect Key West Experience”

Reviewed June 12, 2012

My friend and I were looking for a chance to go snorkeling while we were in Key West over the Memorial Day weekend. Our hotel had a couple of recommendations to chose from. We were more interested in getting some good snorkeling in rather that being treated like sheep, so we shied away from the cheap boats with a ton of people - who would inevitably be loud and inexperienced and scare the wildlife away.
We chose Floridays because it was reasonably priced and the size of the group seemed manageable. We went out for a Sunday morning snorkel trip. We met the boat promptly and noted that it would be the captain, the first mate, and one other group of two.
The morning trips are obviously fantastic because the water is calm and clear, this was no exception. The water was beautiful, the weather was fantastic, and the snorkeling was amazing. We saw a turtle...in the wild!!!!!
The staff was very friendly, helpful, and a general good time. I would recommend this company over another in a heartbeat...it was truly a great vacation moment.

The Floridays is the staple excursion every time we go to Key West, and this past trip was not any different. The crew is always fun and energetic, and a major reason why we keep coming back. Unfortunately, we had bad weather the first few days of our trip and the boat could not go out. I called multiple times over a three day period and the captain was very patient and upfront with me about the weather and sea conditions. As we waited for a good opportunity to go snorkeling, the concierge at our hotel tried several times to book us on a big catamaran. I respectfully declined because the Floridays has a unique personality that the giant catamarans do not have.
Finally, on our final day, the weather conditions allowed us a chance to go to the reef. Knowing there had been a few days of bad weather, the captain and crew fully informed us of what the conditions were going to be for the day. As we made our way to the reef, the sea state was a little lumpy, but super exciting! Visibility at the reef was not that good, but we knew what to expect. Once we were back on the boat the champagne began to flow…always the best part of the day!
Overall, it was another great day in Key West aboard the Floridays! Thanks again and we will see you again in a few months!

Thankfully the staff at our B&B recommended Floridays for our snorkel trip. We are bout to book with another company until we heard about how many people they pack on their boats.

We only had 8 people total on our recent snorkeling trip. The crew was knowledgeable, capable and extremely friendly. They welcomed us on board and gave us everything we needed for our snorkeling trip to the reef.

Unfortunately, the wind really picked up on our way out to the reef, because the snorkeling was really tough in the large waves. If it had been more calm, we would have had a perfect trip. Can't blame Floridays for the weather, though! They were awesome and we'd book again with them any time.

We decided to check out Floridays because they take you out about 7 miles from the island to the reefs. Some snorkeling places on the island only take you to the shore of the island. The reef is where it's at because there are a ton more beautiful creatures to see. It was my first time so I wanted it to be super special- and worth the price.
The boat itself was awesome, I felt like P.Diddy. The captain, Alexis, explained everything clearly so I could understand it. I hung on her every word because I didn't want to drown on vacation. She made me feel comfortable and confident that wouldn't happen. The first mate, Hileah (hope I spelled that right) also made me feel comfortable and attended to pretty much everyone's every need. There was water, soda, and juice available for the hour trip out to the reef.
The crew gave great instructions, so when I finally jumped in I felt safe and confident. We had about an hour to explore the reef. It was amazing! I saw a ton of awesome fish, even a barracuda! Before I knew it, Alexis was blowing the air horn for us to swim back to the boat. Although I felt like I could have been out exploring for hours, it was a pretty physically demanding experience. My legs were a little sore after! We spent the perfect amount of time in the water.
On the ride back we were offered beer and champagne. Awesome. I had a glass of champagne while we cruised back to the Hyatt. I really was P.Diddy.
Keep in mind it is important to TIP THE CREW before you hop off. Some of the other people on the boat didn't do this and it was kind of a slap in the face to our two crew members who really were working their butts off to make sure we had fun.
