My bride and I got back from a week of diving, dining and drinking on Key West Saturday, May 12. We went down to get our AOW and did a couple of additional dives with Captain's Corner. Key West area diving tends to be cloudy with occasional strong currents. That was absolutely not the case last week.
Vis was great all week (well over 100 ft), the sea was calm (1 - 2 ft max) and the current didn't bother us one bit. We did several reef dives (don't remember any of the names) all of which were in decent shape and the Cayman Salvage Master. We did 4 two tanks (8 dives total) over the course of the week and didn't repeat a single dive.
Since we got our OW (and now AOW) from them, the diving was relatively cheap. Dives that were not part of our AOW were $40.00 for a two tank all equipment included. I think it runs $40.00 for the boat trip + tanks and equipment if you didn't train with them.
While a lot of people like the diving better elsewhere in the Keys (honestly, I wasn't that thrilled with Largo), there are very few places in the world that can compare with Key West for top side silliness. We stayed in an apartment above a coffee shop on Duval Street that was directly across from the 801 club. What great people watching could be had sitting on our balcony when the drag queens were out trying to drum up business for the nightly shows.
Where else can you see that, dive every day without repeating a dive, AND feel perfectly safe walking the streets at night?
