I'm going to Key Largo for 3 days for work. Can dive Sunday afternoon and Monday morning. Figured I'd use the dive boat at the resort - Ocean Reef Club - on Monday since its close and will save time.

But Sunday I get in at 9am to Miami so have some time to diver elsewhere. Was thinking a little south - next key or two. Any suggestions or information would be great.

Thanks in advance
Vaughn

In Marathon try Tildens Dive Center at Hawks Cay or their ops at the south end of Marathon mm 49.

Remember to ask how many drivers they take out on the boat. There are many nice 6-pack boats (HMS Minnow) and some nice 10 diver boats (Bluewaters). But, many take over 20 (Ocean Divers) has 50 foot boats.

Thanks. I'll ask but given its a non summer Sunday afternoon (and maybe Monday), I"m worried about enough diver to make the trip go. Never been on a boat with 20 divers, must be chaotic.
