Recreational fishing is just that… When someone asks you what you’re fishing for, the answer is – a) snapper, b) jacks c) grouper d) to relax or e) all of the above. The goal is to fish and catch. We only hope that a) the fish are biting and b) you can bring them in the boat. If no signs of bite early in, we’ll change locations – head to a bridge or out the reef. Ultimate goal: good time fishing!
Our bikes are singlespeed and come in men’s and women’s bike frames with baskets. Locks and helmets are included. Explore Sunshine Key and surrounding Ohio Key, Veteran’s Memorial Park and Beach, or Bahia Honda State Park.
A sunset in the FL Keys is a magical experience to behold. There are few places on the east coast where one can see the sun set into the water, and this is one of them. Motor or sail, ocean side or Gulf. We depart the marina 1-1/2 or 2-1/2 hours prior to sunset. Bring your own sunset drinks and snacks. We might even take a quick dip–whatever we want. You’re in the Keys!
Paddleboarding is fun and suitable for people of all ages and abilities. Rent one of our paddleboards for two hours, full day or by the week. Paddleboarding is a great way to see the Keys and the water.
You might want to add snorkel gear to your rental $10 for the day. We also have wetsuits.
When the conditions are right; light breeze and good visibility, the reef is the place to be. Looe Key is a local pride and joy – most impressive snorkel spot on the only barrier reef in the continental United States. It is an underwater marine sanctuary four miles out to sea that boasts a wide array of coral and colors.
Let Capt Brian show you lots of tropical fish. Snorkel gear is provided. Feel free to pack a lunch. Need a wetsuit? Add $10. Having fun? Add an hour +$75. The patch reef is a great back-up snorkel spot when the barrier reef is too choppy. If you prefer, we can go lobstering instead.
This is the only hands-on boating safety lesson in the Keys. You learn how to: a) dock a boat in different situations, b) drop and retrieve an anchor, c) understand weather, wind, and tides and d) drive a boat. Just one tip from this three hour session could pay for the entire lesson.
An hour loop around Bahia Honda and Ohio Keys with Captain Brian on our flats boat. See the Gulf and the Atlantic sides. Skinny water and beautiful beaches. Cruise under bridges and have your photos taken. This is a great way to get on the water, and just may be the best deal in the Keys!
This is the only sailing lesson outside of Key West. You raise sails, take the helm, switch the lee boards, tack, jibe, and …learn to sail. I often hear people say “I always wanted to learn how to sail”. Pair it with a stay at Parmer’s Resort. One lesson is $325. Three lessons, just $750.
