Snorkel, Mask, and Map Rental for Self-Guided exploring Fort Lauderdale’s Coral Reefs

Description

Let over 12 years of experience serve Snorkelers who want the Best Value. We have been snorkeling this area longer than almost every tour operator that duplicates our success. We recently decided that experienced Snorkelers prefer to explore on their own and realized that once you duck your head under water, then most Snorkelers want to go where your eyes, body, and mind take you. Note: If you are a beginner, then we highly suggest doing our Guided tour as this is Self-Guided.

Florida is one of the most popular places in the world to scuba dive and snorkel and with a provided map you can go exploring at your leisure to a small Town that is known as "Florida’s Beach Diving Capital." This beach portal is located only 3 miles from our convenient Riverfront Paddle Board and Kayak Showroom and Launch. It is our favorite and most popular spot snorkeling with a Reef Snorkel Trail in 10 feet of water, and three the coral reefs within 100 yards off the beach in Lauderdale-By-The Sea.

We make it fun, easy, and affordable for you to explore the reefs:
1. Come to our Riverfront Showroom for a friendly Orientation, Directions, and a Map of the nearby Snorkel Trails.
2. We provide Snorkel, Mask, Snorkel Vest, Flag (1 per Group Leader), and Map
3. Authorized Credit Card Agreement must be signed for Equipment Returns and a Credit Card Must be provided
authorizing up to $85/pp for any unreturned equipent. (See Authorization Form).
4. Sign Waiver Required

Snorkel Tour of Underwater Explorer Jean Cousteau's dedicated "Snorkel Trail". 2nd to only the Great barrier reef, this hidden treasure is well traveled and would make any pirate happy as one of our expert Guide's navigated you thru the "Snorkel Trail" dedicated by Jean-Michele Cousteau in May 2002. There are two sets of concrete cannons, a large anchor, and a ballast pile replicating a shipwreck common in these waters many years ago. The trial was started in 1998 & took 4 years to complete. The shallow reef trail varies from 8 - 16 feet and is 1 of 3 Reef Systems that host a wide variety of tropical sea life you may see:

Large Sea Turtles Blue Tang Parrotfish French Angels Spotted Scorpionfish
Caribbean Spiny Lobster Doctorfish Tarpon Nurse Sharks Spotted Goatfish
Peacock Flounder Barracuda Eels Manta Rays Trumpet Fish
Blue-Headed Wrasse Eagle Rays Octopus Cuttlefish Sergeant Majors

Our original Tour was created over 10 years ago to complement the 1st Bio rock Project in the USA: The Bio rock Project utilized a low-level electric current from 2 solar-powered buoys to help corals grow much faster than they would in a natural environment while also helping to create vital new underwater habitat for tropical fish, corals, and other species. Unfortunately, the project was abandoned, but thanks to our loyal Guides we have evolved and continued showing off the rich history and beauty of this awesome reef system.

BONUS: Guest may choose to Kayak or Paddle Board for the remainder of the return date for only an additional $12/pp.
