Key West Afternoon 2-Tank SCUBA Dive

Our boats are licensed for 25 but typically accommodate a maximum of 14 divers per trip, ensuring a comfortable and personalized experience.

There are no lockers at the shop. However, there is a section on the boat that won’t get wet where you can leave your belongings, or you can ask the staff at check-in to keep them for you while you dive.

For non-certified, we can only do the Key West Dive in a Day PADI® Discover Scuba Resort course, which is the best way for you to experience scuba diving without certification. You have to know basic swimming skills and the ability to float without the help of any floatation device. Pool training is in the morning, and reef diving is in the afternoon. Here’s our available schedule: https://www.keywestscubadiving.com/packages/key-west-dive-in-a-day-scuba-resort-course/

On our afternoon trip, we dive two reef sites with tons of tropical fish. This shallow reef system is perfect for the beginner diver or the avid adventurer. These dives can be guided but most certified divers are comfortable with the relaxing 25-35-ft depths and hour-long dives at each location. The Captain chooses the actual reef location each day based on current conditions and with the goal of getting you to the best visibility and sea-state.

While we aim to visit different reef locations, the final decision depends on visibility conditions. In some cases, dives may take place at the same reef to ensure the best experience.

Participants in the Key West Afternoon 2-Tank SCUBA Dive cannot fly in an airplane within 24 hours of their dive.

The main concern with scuba diving and flying is decompression sickness (DCS). Your body needs adequate time during an ascent to off-gas excess nitrogen, or you can form bubbles in your bloodstream, possibly leading to DCS.

This dive requires good weather. If it’s canceled due to poor weather, you’ll be offered a different date or a full refund.

The minimum age for this dive is 10 (must be accompanied by an adult).

If a date or time is not listed on the calendar, it’s sold out or unavailable for another reason. Support cannot assist further if a date or time is not on the calendar.

If you find a date and time that works for you, book it NOW because things always sell out at this time of year.
