Boarding a Key Largo dive boat, you’ll complete a safety briefing before a pair of guided dives—two tanks per diver—over about four hours; between dives there’s a surface interval on the boat, and the guides select reef or wreck sites based on current weather and visibility to deliver the best possible underwater experience.
