Experience Key West from two very different viewpoints.
Climb aboard the World-Famous Conch Train for a narrated panoramic drive through 400 years of history.
Hear about the early days of Key West with entertaining stories of pirates, wreckers, salvagers, cigar manufacturing and sponging. Meet the characters that helped shape Key West's history, from the more private individuals, such as Eduardo Gato and Governor Duval, to public figures, including Presidents Truman and Kennedy.
You will pass by the historic homes, the unique harbor, the southernmost point in the mainland USA and many other landmarks along the way.
Next is an informative eco-tour of the only living coral reef in the continental United States, just six miles offshore. This is one of the most biologically diverse marine ecosystems in the world.
Explore the dramatic vistas generally reserved for scuba divers, and marvel at the tropical splendor of an undersea world on board a state-of-the-art glass-bottom catamaran.
Majestic elkhorn and impressive brain coral, sturdy in appearance yet fragile and vulnerable, stand sentry for the more than 300 species of fish that complete this colorful and intriguing seascape. Special underwater windows provide you with continuous viewing opportunities.
