Overview

All while avoiding the crowded big boats, spend part of your Florida vacation day out on the tropical waters of Key West on Catamaran Echo - making vacation memories since 1991. Enjoy a premium shallow snorkeling and dolphin-watching sailing excursion. Cruise on a roomy catamaran that books only to half their passenger limit for quality control. Be ready to spot wild dolphins being WILD - hunting, playing, teaching their babies how to hunt, feed and socialize with their dolphin friends. Then to a shallow water snorkel stop at coral reefs, wrecks or the wildlife refuge - wherever the best conditions are from Mother Nature that day. The spacious catamaran offers plenty of room to relax in comfortable seats, and on a soft trampoline sundeck forward. Feel the sea breeze in your hair, and enjoy light snacks and premium drinks, all while having fun on the sparkling waters of Key West.

Best trip!!!

Published on Dec, 2024

Super trip! We went on the snorkeling trip on echo 2, and had such a great time with Theresa and Aaron. It was very flexible and easy to change trips due to bad weather. We started by seeing dolphins and then headed to snorkel. If you go on this trip in December, you will want a wetsuit and warm clothes for the boat ride if it's windy. 10/10 would do again!!

The Best in the West

Amazing experience on the Echo! Captain Teresa and Dora the Deckmate provided an unbelievable day for my family. We saw dolphins, turtles, and fishes galore. They were the hosts with the mosts!

Great trip thanks to Theresa and Victoria

Published on Nov, 2024

We had a great trip thanks to Captain Theresa and Victoria. They took care of us during the entire trip and made the entire outing enjoyable. For those mainly interested in snorkeling, the water was choppy with lower visibility so they gave us a choice of spots and we choose a shallower area where the visibility was good but the fish life was not as prevelant. Nevertheless it was a great boat ride with an awesome crew.
