Description

Mud Keys Mangrove Safari will have you feeling like a world explorer in our own backyard. After getting onto the boat, we’ll take you for a 30-minute cruise of backcountry waters to Mud Key Sanctuary! Upon arriving there, enjoy nature surrounding you and take pictures while soaking up the sun. You can walk around on the sandbar and swim if you’d like or just soak in all the gorgeous sights the area has to offer.

Things to know

Things to Bring

We'll uncovered and under direct sunlight for the entirety of the tour, make sure to bring hats and sunscreen!

Before you come

We will be at sea and while the weather and waves are often peaceful and tranquil, it's still the ocean. For anyone who struggles with motion sickness, we recommend taking whatever medication 30 minutes before the cruise to ensure it has time to take affect before our journey. The restroom situation out at sea is unideal, make sure to visit the restroom before coming on board.

Went on the Manta Ray night snorkel with Capt. Lorraine, Azure and Fosse. We had a great time! The manta rays get sooo close!

I had an incredible experience with Key West Boat Trips! Capitan Pawel was professional, friendly, and made sure everyone was comfortable and safe throughout the trip. The boat was well-maintained, and the views were absolutely stunning. We got to explore beautiful, secluded spot…
