Rent a boat in the Florida Keys and spend a day in warm, tropical waters aboard sleek, well-powered craft from Fish 'N Fun Boat Rentals.

THE FLEET

Three day-boat options to match your group

Choose a compact 22' Sea Hunt (200 HP, capacity 7), a roomy 24' Hurricane deck boat (200 HP, capacity 12) or the powerful 25' Proline Super Sport (250 HP, capacity 10) depending on passenger count and speed needs.

THE EXPERIENCE

A full day on the water — launch, explore, return

Single-day, eight-hour rentals let you set out from Duck Key marina and spend the day exploring Keys waters — a flexible option for snorkeling, fishing or cruising between islands with friends and family.

THE PRACTICALS

Simple check-in, optional extras

Check-in requires ID and the credit card used to reserve the boat; anglers and snorkelers can bring their own gear. Operators price these day rentals reasonably for vacation needs in the Florida Keys.

What the day feels like

What the day feels like

You’ll meet at Fish 'n Fun’s Duck Key marina, slide aboard at the start of the eight-hour rental and run into clear, shallow Keys water for a day of cruising, snorkeling or fishing — returning to the marina at the end of the day with the boat. The fleet’s horsepower and capacities let groups tailor the day: family-friendly deck boats or a sportier pro-line for faster runs.

Suitability
