Key Largo Scuba Diving FAQ
Everything You Need to Know Before Your Florida Keys Adventure
Why dive Key Largo?
With proximity to the Gulf Stream and a long protective landmass, Key Largo offers the clearest water and most vibrant marine life in the Florida Keys.
What are your trip departure times?
We offer two daily 2-tank trips. Morning check-in is at 7:30 AM (8:30 AM departure); afternoon check-in is at 12:00 PM (1:00 PM departure).
How much water time do I get?
We provide 65 minutes of "pool open" time per location, typically allowing for 50–60 minutes of actual dive time depending on your preparation speed.
Are dive guides included in the price?
No. We offer professional, paid instructors as guides for a small fee in 6:1 ratios. This avoids "cattle dives" and ensures a safer, more personalized experience.
What if it has been a long time since my last dive?
If it’s been 1–2 years, a hired guide is required. If over 2 years, you must complete a Scuba Skills Update in our pool before joining an ocean trip.
