Mobile ticket
Are you looking to explore the gorgeous reefs of the Florida Keys? Are you also looking to go out on a snorkeler friendly boat? Then you've the found the tour for you! On our snorkel-only trips we head out on our 2022 51' catamaran, the Calypso, to the beautiful John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park and snorkel two different reefs for 45 minutes at each site. The reefs we visit are no deeper than 25 feet, and the same reefs come up to as shallow as 5-10 feet from the surface in some parts making it perfect for snorkelers - both kids and adults. We visit some of the most popular sites including Christ of the Abyss, Horseshoe Reef, Grecian Rocks, Banana Reef and more daily (weather conditions and mooring space permitting at the dive sites).
Refreshments, chip bags, reef safe sunscreen and ALL equipment are included!

5.00The snorkeling trip surpassed my expectations. The price was super reasonable for the expertise, timing, and general staff friendliness. We saw so much cool marine life...beautiful reefs, a big shark, a big ray, lots of beautiful fish and lobsters to name a few. We were there during the quiet season so no crowds or issues with that..very comfortable. Our first stop was a bit choppy so the captain let us do a quick trip to see the statue and then added a 3rd stop that was in a calmer area.
Great Captain, boat and music!

5.00Had the pleasure of writing on the boat.The calypso with captain aaron and his first maid jolissa, they absolutely made our snorkeling experience exceptional. I highly recommend silent dive center for all your snorkeling and scuba diving needs. I definitely can't wait to go back and share this experience with my husband. I started a traveling journal this trip.And I was able to get a really cool impression of the calypso's keychain, definitely something.I will remember for the rest of my life.I saw a turtle stingray barracudas seriously absolutely breathtaking amazing

5.00For our very first time snorkling in open waters, this was the best experience we could ever wish for. Aaron en Jolisa are wonderful people that did all they could to make this trip as memorable as possible. We saw lots of fish and even a shark! Be sure to ask them afterwards for some food recommendations because they know all the hottest spots in town.

5.00We went on the Calypso on November 8th. The captain and crew were great and reef experiences enjoyable. It was nice that we weren't badgered for tips. We saw the Christ the Redeemer statue and Horseshoe Reef.

5.00Silent World was FABULOUS! Everyone on the staff was upbeat, friendly and happy. From the first person we met in the gift shop through out the rest of our "3 hour tour"! The bathrooms were clean, showers great, sunscreen provided, snacks free... The equipment was new and in great shape. On the boat our captain Aron was funny, friendly educated and informative about the reefs/wildlife. Our first mate Jocelyn was personable, upbeat, funny, friendly and actively engaged all of the guests. I have done several other snorkeling tours in Key Largo in the past. This was by far THE BEST!
