     The Afternoon Half Day Excursion is similar to the morning excursion but  gives you a chance to sleep in a little later if you choose. On the  afternoon trip, you will enjoy the same activities as the morning,  kayaking, snorkeling, and sailing. Snacks and drinks will also be  provided along the way. One of many great things that stands out with  this trip though is the Key West sunset seen from the water on the way  home. Truly one of the best ways to end your day.

  Yes!  Our expert crew can give you an instructional overview on snorkeling  and kayaking, and a one-on-one lesson if you need additional support.

Snorkeling is easier than swimming, and our gear is top-of-the-line  and sanitized between uses. We even have some prescription masks  available. We have easy-to-handle ocean kayaks – and if you fall in, the  water is warm and shallow! In winter months, we provide complimentary  wetsuits.

If you don’t want to snorkel and/or kayak, you’re welcome to relax on the boat and enjoy the phenomenal scenery.


 At  Danger Charters, we are intentional to seek out calm waters. Our aim is  to enjoy the sailing experience – not to sail fast or go hard – and  it’s unusual for our guests to get seasick.

If you are prone to seasickness, though, consider choosing our Key  West trips out of the Danger Chandlery Store where the water is almost  always flat calm. We sometimes see some waves on our Stock Island trips.

Motion sickness pills and sea bands are recommended for seasickness, and both are available at the Danger Chandlery Store.  Note that motion sickness medication is most effective when taken about  30 minutes in advance of boarding. Ginger candy can also help to combat  motion sickness.


 Yes, there are bathrooms on all of our boats. (Although, we sailors call them marine heads.)
