Enjoy a 3-hour snorkeling adventure in Marathon Key at one of the world's most incredible reefs. Sombrero Reef is alive. It is a place where parrotfish feed on the living coral while trumpetfish try to blend in among its branches. The reef is protected, so you can expect to see large schools of grunts and snappers swimming among large groupers hiding in the crags and looking for a meal. The great barrier reefs on our planet are precious. Like underwater rainforests, they teem with wildlife and colorful corals. You are welcome to bring food and drinks with you.

Q&A

Q: Is there an age limit for kids on this snorkeling trip?

A: Great question! There’s no strict age limit, but kids should be comfortable in the water. I've seen families with kids as young as 6 enjoying it, and they provide life vests if needed. Just make sure they’re supervised throughout the trip for safety.

Q: What if the weather is bad on our scheduled day?

A: You can reschedule if the weather doesn't cooperate! They keep an eye on conditions and will notify you if it's unsafe to go. If that happens, you can usually pick another day that works for you.

Q: What should we wear for snorkeling at Sombrero Reef?

A: Definitely wear a swimsuit! I’d also recommend water shoes and a light cover-up. The sun can be intense out there, so don’t forget sunscreen! And if you have a snorkel mask that fits well, bring that too.

Just booked the snorkeling adventure at Sombrero Reef!

Hey everyone! I'm so excited! Just booked the 3-hour snorkeling trip at Sombrero Reef in Marathon Key. I’ve heard the reef is stunning and I can’t wait to see all the fish! It’s also great that we can bring our own snacks and drinks. Has anyone done this already? Any tips I should know before we go?

Thinking of gifting the snorkeling experience to my partner!

I’m considering giving this snorkeling adventure at Sombrero Reef as a gift for my partner’s birthday. They love the ocean but have never snorkeled before. Is this a good choice for beginners? Any advice on what to include for a gift basket?
