Easy Adventures offers fun fishing, snorkeling and eco-tours in the Florida Keys.  Based in Islamorada, we specialize in teaching kids and beginners how to fish or snorkel. Fishing and snorkeling lessons are taught patiently without pressure at your own pace.  Look for dolphins and manatees.  Dolphins often jump our boat wake!  Photograph a gorgeous Florida Keys sunset or wading birds on the sand bars.  Go island exploring on Indian Key or Lignum Vitae Key.  Cruise along backcountry flats or meander through a narrow creek lined by tangled mangroves, searching for elusive wildlife. During season catch your own lobster dinner.

Some of the best Florida Keys snorkeling can be found at Cheeca Rocks and Alligator Lighthouse, which you can visit on your private snorkeling charter!  Your patient captain can teach you how to snorkel or help you refine your free diving skills.

Your captain can also narrate a well-planned informative ecology tour.  Eco tours may be planned for anytime of the day. Bird watchers prefer our sunset cruise when birds return to their mangrove roosts. Children prefer our critter getter program where they can capture animals with hand nets and then learn about them from your well-informed captain.

Weather is seldom a problem on an Easy Adventure.  If the ocean is too bumpy, we can explore calm Florida backcountry waters or visit the ruins on Indian Keys where pirates once camped and where ship wreckers built a flourishing town.

 

YOUR CAPTAIN is Anne Baxter, former Everglades National Park   ranger, published photo-journalist, and marine ecology instructor.  For over 20 years she has explored the Florida Keys, a great part of that while living on a houseboat and running week-long charters.  For 15 years she taught shipboard marine ecology courses at numerous educational facilities in the Florida Keys.

BOAT TOURS are on a seaworthy 22 foot fiberglass outboard motorboat with center console, canopy and easy access swim platform with ladder.  The boat offers a stable ride in up to 3 foot seas. Cruise slow or get there fast.  The boat is capable of cruising at 35 knots.  When on plane the boat can go in depths as shallow as one foot without disturbing the seagrass beds.  This permits you to get into areas not accessible to larger vessels and to get closer to Mother Nature.
