Have scuba dived before, but not really all that experienced, so knew the concept. The dive site was really nice, but found the hose length kindof restrictive. Experienced a very rude "experienced diver" who kept running into me and hitting me with her fins and hands, and cutting me off. One of the people participatiing did not dive and hung... More

I just got back from Key West. While there, we signed up for lots of activities, but I have to say that Snuba was the best thing we did!! We have gone on lots of snorkeling trips on different vacations we've been on and decided to try something new - Snuba. It looked cool on the website, but we still... More

I recently took my family Snuba diving in Key West. Although I am an experienced Scuba diver, my family is not and this was a good way to introduce them to diving. The concept of Snuba is diving down to about 20 feet while connected to an air tank on a surface raft. Multiple divers are tethered to a single... More

We had Corral as a guide. She did great. I was a little less impressed with the reef compared to Cozumel and the Bahamas, but it was still cool. Key West is surrounded by a corral reef. They take you to a spot around 18-20ft deep and get you into the water. Our group saw lobster, crabs, and tons of... More

Snuba offers nothing you couldn't achieve with a snorkel mask and some fins. Horrible customer service. Some of the crew was passive, friendly, some of the crew was patronizing and insincere. Sofie was rude, and best yet, made an unauthorized charge on our credit card, no apology for that either. Snuba on Key West is a gimmick and a punishment... More

Horrible experience! The whole thing was a ripoff from beginning to end. My first clue should have been the 3 phone calls I had to make to Florida just to get my confirmation email. My friends and I booked this and eagerly awaited our snuba adventure. It was supposed to be the highlight of our trip to Key West. What... More

The crew is very informed, experienced and knowledgeable, Sophia is a Great Hostess, she owns the boat, dives with you and wants things right, and wants you back, Super way to spend a day, nice equipment, staff is great, dive sight we used that day was very cool. I truly look forward to doing this again next year. Thanks guys... More

My husband and I took our two sons, aged 15 and 18, for a SNUBA trip here and we loved it! It truly is a way to go beyond snorkeling (we went down 20 feet) and not have to learn all the ins and outs of scuba diving or handle the heavy equipment. The staff here was very friendly and... More

We enjoyed the experience very much. Coral was in charge of our group, which we were very happy about. She was definitely the most friendly and helpful on the boat. During the ride, we were instructed on what to do. I was happy to find out that you could go as deep as you want and come up anytime. There... More

What can I say, I'm a picky guy. I expect a lot. I expect people to be excellent. I was impressed. Sophia, Rob, Coral, and Conner were super nice, patient, and completely capable. I recommend SNUBA Key West as an intro into the underwater world. I've always wanted to find out if I would like SCUBA. This SNUBA experience jazzed... More
