Highlights

Outing Highlights

THE REEFS

Shallow, Colorful Coral and Marine Life

Key Largo’s reefs offer shallow dives—often under 30 feet—where snorkelers and divers can view vibrant coral and abundant sea life in clear water, making each stop rewarding for all skill levels.

THE BOAT

A Catamaran Platform Built for Diving and Snorkeling

Trips depart from Amoray’s roomy dive vessel designed for easy water access and surface intervals between two distinct reef locations, providing a comfortable base for both two-tank dives and snorkel outings.

THE OPERATOR

Decades of Local Experience

With nearly three decades as a Keys diving destination, Amoray Dive Resort is a long-established operator for guided reef trips and is set up to support renters, guided divers, and repeat visitors.

What the day feels like

What the Trip Feels Like

Expect a roughly four-hour outing that takes you to two separate dive or snorkel locations; tanks and weights are provided and trips run from a purpose-built catamaran so you spend most of your time in the water sampling shallow reef life or floating over coral gardens.

Suitability

Who it's for

Who this outing suits — and when you’ll need extra steps before you go.

1
Certified Recreational DiversWell suited — certified divers receive tanks and weights and can sign up for two-tank dives; bring your certification card and required safety gear.
2
Infrequent DiversNot ideal without preparation — if your last dive was over one year ago you must hire a guide; divers out of the water more than two years must take a refresher before heading out.
3
Solo DiversConditional — the operator will attempt to buddy solo divers; if no buddy is available you will be required to hire a guide for the trip.
4
Snorkelers & Casual PassengersGood match — snorkel trips are designed for shallow reefs (commonly less than 30 feet) and passengers can also book a seat to enjoy wildlife viewing from the boat.
