Why We Love This Unique Experience

Embark on an extraordinary Shark and Wildlife Viewing Adventure in Key West, the only shark tour in the USA where guests do not enter the water to encounter these fascinating creatures. From the comfort of an eco-friendly catamaran, journey through the shallow waters to a special location just a few miles from shore. Along the way, marvel at dolphins, stingrays, barracudas, and native birds, all while savoring the complimentary soda, juice, and chips provided on board. The highlight of the tour involves using bait to attract various sharks like lemon, nurse, bull, black tip, and hammerhead sharks right to the side of the boat for an up-close experience.
Meet at the Opal Key Resort & Marina for check-in before boarding the Tiger Cat, which will navigate through Key West harbor en route to the Key West National Wildlife Refuge. Enjoy sightings of numerous sharks and other wildlife, such as dolphins, in a safe and family-friendly environment. As you cruise about 4 miles from the shore to the shark viewing site, keep an eye out for sea turtles, tarpon, and an array of native birds. Your knowledgeable guide will provide insights into the delicate ecosystem of the area and its abundance of marine life, ensuring an educational and thrilling experience.
This incredible 2-hour adventure not only offers the chance to witness these majestic creatures in their natural environment but also provides complimentary beverages, like water, soda, and juice, as well as the use of polarized sunglasses for enhanced viewing. Capture spectacular photos of the sharks swimming mere feet from the boat, creating memories that will last a lifetime. Perfect for families, animal lovers, and thrill-seekers alike, this Shark and Wildlife Viewing Adventure in Key West makes an unforgettable gift for any occasion.
