| What could be bad about a sunny day sailing on the ocean? It is a great escape from Key West madness. The young sailor-guides, who attended to the cruise, were a bit cocky, but very attentive and enthusiastic trying to reach out and engage all the participants. They gave special attention to those who were new to kayaking and snorkeling, alerted us to the wildlife, and made sure we had plenty to eat and drink! The snorkeling was a bit disappointing- I guess I was expecting a coral reef, which it was not. There are no coral reefs in this area. So the sealife is not quite as abundant and colorful. We kayaked around a small mangrove covered island, but ran out of time and could not loaf when we reached the beach. Due to the distance to be covered and the time constraints, the boat used a power motor in addition to sails, but it was still much quieter than a regular power boat. All in all it was a nice way to spend the day off the island and a good value with hyper-attentive sailor-guides. |

| Being on the sea and sailing literally brought tears to my eyes I was so happy to be there. My crew, Windy and Dennis we were warm and welcoming, knowledgeable, informative, and very fun to be with. The kayaking experience was one I will never forget. I would do this every day if I could! |

| There are many different charter groups to choose from when visiting Key West, but I guarantee you won't find one better than Danger's Key West Full Day! The morning started off with a quick orientation of the amazing 65' sail boat, and before we knew it, we were under way. Captain Dees and his cohort in crime, Sean, were extremely welcoming and made the nine of us feel right at home. The boat was both spacious and comfortable, and the sail out to the snorkeling spot was simply amazing. Captain Dees and Sean proved to be extremely knowledgeable as they gave us a great overview of the surrounding area. Before we knew it, we were all thrown overboard with snorkels and fins with the instructions to find as many fish as possible. After an excellent swim in the gorgeous warm waters of Key West, we were reeled in and served a fantastic lunch. I had the PB&J, while my wife had a ham & cheese and lots of white wine! As we ate, Captain Dees sailed on and stopped at the most amazing, secluded kayaking spot. Sean led the nine of us through the back country of mangroves and gave us a ton of interesting info on the area. We stopped at a little beach that few have ever seen, and it was absolutely gorgeous. Along the way, we saw several small sharks and tons of other interesting wildlife.
Since I don't want to bore readers with the rambling memories of my fabulous trip, I will close by saying that you simply must take a Danger Cruise. Moreover, I highly recommend that you ask for Captain Dees and Sean. They were great fun and both my wife and I look forward to sailing with them again in the not so distant future. |

| Tony, Chris and Billy made a potentially dismal experience a great time. The weather was cold and windy - not exactly perfect snorkel and kayak conditions. The crew and boat were top notch. Chris' lesson on reggae dancing was interesting to say the least. All in all an unforgettable experience. We're gonna do it again. |

| What a fantastice trip! The first mate and captain gave it "their all". With humor, being knowledgable and knew how to serve thei r sailing guests.
Was the full sail snorkle/kayak and it was worth EVERY penny. Great food served, especially the curried chicken salad and the FRESH tuna salad. Snacks, wine, beer, sodas, cookies, fruit.
Don't miss it! Go the extra mile and pay a little more...because you get a lot more!

| They have 3 things that seperate them from their competitors.....
1. Tour guide is a professional with an in depth knowledge of the habitat.
2. Smaller boat = individual attention with only 10-14 people aboard and this boat can reach areas with only 4 feet of clearance. Food was excellent, easier to provide fresh lunch with a smaller crowd, every 10 minutes you were asked it you needed anything.
3. ATTITUDE, this charter loves what they do. They are an ECO friendly charter with an excellent crew. Don't waste your money on other charters, you will not be disappointed by using Danger! |

| We went on a full day cruise and were lucky to have marvellous weather (the previous day had been called off due to heavy storms). The crew taking us out were Corey, Chris and Wendy and the three of them were very knowledgeable, friendly and enthusiastic. Corey deserves particular praise for taking everything in his stride, including some shin bashing by my inept entry into a kayak.
The snorkelling was fantastic -- we saw a nurse shark, several sting rays, schools of fish, barracudas and a few too many jellyfish. After lunch, the kayaking provided excellent views of a variety of bird species, from cormorants to pelicans to ospreys and a frigatebird.
The only negative was the sunburn! Despite two thorough applications of 30 SPF waterproof sunscreen, we both ended up with bad sunburn on our shoulders and backs. If you burn easily, be sure to keep reapplying the sunscreen.
A great day out. |

| We loved Danger's Prize and crew!!! We were went on the Full Day Snorkel, Sail, Kayak Tour and you got all 6.5 hours as promised, WELL worth the money. There were 14 of us "tourists" and 4 crew, plenty of room onboard. The crew was outstanding, they made an extra effort to get to know each of us on a first name basis and learn about where we were from, etc. The snorkeling was completely safe, you had the option to use vests or noodles or nothing at all, it was very relaxed & comfortable. The kayaking was great, we went to a shallow sandbar where the water was perfectly calm & clear, only about 2-4 feet deep and an uninhabited island to see the Mangrove Trees. It was exciting to see the sting rays and watch them zoom off into deeper water. The food & beverage onboard was plentiful, lunch was sandwiches & fruit with cookies near the end of the trip. They had water, soft drinks, beer & wine to drink, as much as you need or want. I have to say though, the crew really made the trip a one of a kind - we will definitely go back and do this again - Thanks Danger's Prize!!!
