It was a beautiful day & the air was cool & fresh. We went to a place called the Flats a shallow water location. The shark feeding lasted about 15 minutes or so. All the sharks are Lemon Sharks & range in size small to medium with a couple large ones thrown in. The rest of the trip is spent... More

Would do it again! Great way to see the sharks feeding up close & personal on a beautiful boat ride with great guides! Would recommend it to anyone looking to do a boat ride & looking for adventure! No sissy sharks! Great for Shark Week fans!

This was a lot of fun....especially for kids (we had 5 kids with us from ages 8-15). It's a 2 hour boat ride....the captain feeds the lemon sharks first (we saw probably around 20 sharks...up close & personal!) Really fun! We did see some dolphins too. We saw 1 stingray...we were hoping to see some sea turtles--1 was spotted but... More

This tour was great! We had a blast despite it being a bit chilly and choppy. We saw approximately 15 lemon sharks and some dolphins. We got out to where the sharks were and you could immediately make out a few sharks. Once they put the fish out over the water it was a frenzy. It was a great experience... More

This is fabulous adventure. The captains know the ecosystem well, and have a deep respect and love for the Keys, the birds, the water, and, of course, the sharks. They are committed to giving their clients a great experience. We went in mid-March when it was unseasonably cool. It took some time for the sharks to show up, but while... More

My husband and I just got back from key west and this was our favorite activity- we saw lots of sharks but also sting rays and a huge sea turtle! Our crew was professional and knowledgeable. We would definitely do this trip again.

If you are looking for a short trip that is both interesting and informative, consider this shark adventure. While you are really never in any danger, you do get to see some shark action up close. The Captain and crew were friendly and seemed knowledgeable. They also provided drinks and light snacks. We had a good time.

My wife and I recently spent a week in the Florida keys enjoying the abundant wildlife viewing. We snorkeled the coral reefs off of Key Largo, kayaked the Everglades and went on this shark tour among other activities. This shark adventure was the highlight by far and we enjoyed all of our activities. I am 61 and have had incredible... More

I stumbled across this on tripadvisor prior to going to key west,and it sounded pretty cool.well if you want to go for a boat ride I guess it's not bad,yes we saw several lemon sharks but they would only use 2 pieces of bait(anyone ever see how a shark feeds) way to short of a "shark tour"!!
