That trip looks like a dream while I'm still here in Buffalo NY...snow outside and 23 degrees.... I had to wipe my tears off the screen to keep watching !lol ! I'm so jealous of you two !! Safe travels guys !
Oh Man, this series is excellent you guys! Every week I am noting must do things, I suspect we will be like your clones!! That reef diving looks epic!!! Paused vid to show my Honey later. Thanks as always for awesome ideas and reviews!!
2 years ago I decided to startted visiting the florida beaches and that is when I found your channel. thanj you for the great content. Your new series on the keys is my favorite. I cant wait to go back
Just wanted to thank you for the plug on our kids at Keys Vacation Supply Rentals. We (mom and dad) live in Indiana and proud of how hard our son and his wife work to make peoples vacations memorable. Thanks again.
That's pretty much our motto Gene. There are plenty of things we've done that we never would have thought we'd do a few years back! That said, snuba-ing isn't for everyone, but it really can be incredibly safe and simple if you stick to the shallow waters (like those in the second spot we dove at).
We've used the boat from Ft. Myers to Key West, but I really would love to take the drive. Always great pointers and locations to stop and visit. And the underwater photography is awesome!
We have yet to do the Ferry from Ft Myers, but we're definitely going to give it a try one of these days! We're really glad you enjoyed this episode and always appreciate the support!
For a decades long Florida resident I’m almost embarrassed to admit I’ve only snorkeled a few times and tried scuba twice in a backyard pool. I am much more on the Jamie scale of underwater anxiety. But this looks like the perfect thing to try. This series sure has me missing the keys but brought back a ton of great memories from dozens of trips there.
Great video. We are going in 3 weeks so I took notes. Two questions 1. What was your favorite flavor of Mead? 2. Is there a downtown area that is walkable with shops and restaurants?
Mrs. Mac Kitchen was where we would stop for lunch back in 2008, 2009, .... All the Monroe County Sheriff Deputies would go there for lunch, that is how I new the food was good, and the prices were also! Mrs. Mac never let us down when we drove A1A to Key West!
@Explorcation the owner (John I think it is) was in the Navy and last I knew was diving for them himself. I really had to jump out of my comfort zone to try it but its one of my favorite things I've ever had.
I'm more if a whipcream on Keylime vs marange(sp?)but don't knock the chocolate....Kermit's in KeyWest has a great chocolate covered Keylime "fudgesical" type of dessert that's great!
I'm the same. normally go for the whipped cream, but the meringue is pretty too. While I don't love chocolate, I do enjoy it on certain things... but never on Key Lime pie! Jamie would definitely like the fudgesicle thing.
Wow, you guys are doing the full tourist video this round! Problem is if you fly into Miami, or FT Lauderdale, and rent a car to the keys, you would overpack your luggage on the plane home! And I will tell you all, that UPS or FEDX or USPS, is not cheap to send things home that you buy in the Keys!
Loads of new ideas 💡 for our bucket list 🤩
Thank you so much for visiting and highlighting so eloquently what our mission is. We appreciate you! ❤
Fox sanctuary is sooo heartwarming.
It really was. We were so happy do have discovered this place.

My son also has a air machine and they can go 50ft
That's awesome. They really have so much to offer it's almost unbelievable!
Our pleasure! They were truly great people to work with and their store/business is quite impressive to say the least!
@@Explorcationnext time your down you need to stop in. They have now added dune buggies to their store which are street legal.
Awesome!
That bird Sanctuary looks amazing . Definitely on our list now
It was! I (Skylar) really loved that they had woodpeckers there. We'd never seen them in a sanctuary before.
Awesome footage of the reef, thanks so much. Brings back memories of scuba diving . You guys are good😊
Thanks so much for the kind comment, Carlos. After that experience, I am so excited to go snuba diving again and also to get scuba certified someday!
The Snuba(?) experience looks amazing but I think we'll have to just experience it through this video...but never say never.

The meal at Lazy Lobster looks Deeeeelicious
Oh it certainly was! And fish always tastes better when you caught it yourself.

That chipped beef looked exquisite! Not sure why, but I've noticed a lot of breakfast joints in the Keys serve chipped beef.
Caribbean Club is still on our bucket list. Looks cool
It is very cool. We just wish it would have been a bit more hoppin.
@Explorcation I think we're at the " a bit quieter is better " stage but yeah it did look a bit on the quiet side of things for what one would like.

Havana fries look interesting!!
We love yucca... so we couldn't pass them up. So greasy but soo good.
@Explorcation good plan to split the order!
It seems baking and selling key lime pie is a lucrative endeavor.
We were thinking the same!
❤ your videos. Pretty cool fish.

Key West Blue Heaven for breakfast Benedict!
FYI..
The King of the Jungle Roll at Castaway Waterfront Restaurant in Marathon has fantastic Lionfish sushi!!!
Ohh wow I would 1000% try that. Definitely going to make it happen our next time in Marathon.
@Explorcation the owner (John I think it is) was in the Navy and last I knew was diving for them himself. I really had to jump out of my comfort zone to try it but its one of my favorite things I've ever had.
Very nice video! Lots to do there! Hopefully I can go there some day.
Another great video!
How do you two stay so fit eating some of the stuff you eat? 😂
Looking forward to your future Keys videos.
Do they make waterproof wireless mics? Glad yours made it.
Not that we know of. But when they do, we'll definitely be purchasing some 😂

@Explorcation yeah, I forgot you're not a big chocolate fan 😉..I think I'd like it...never thought there could be so many different varieties though!
what kind of camera do you use underwater??
