Power Boating, Kayaking, or Sailing Florida Keys Waters, It's Up to You!

"Rainbow to windward, rain ahead. Rainbow to leeward, rains end."- The unknown sailor

Sailing Florida Keys waters is just one way to do it! However you decide to explore this sub-tropical paradise is secondary, but getting on the gin clear water should be the main priority!

"I find the great thing in this world is not so much where we stand, as in what direction we are moving - we must sail sometimes with the wind and sometimes against it - but we must sail, and not drift, nor lie at anchor."- Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr.

There are many ways to enjoy the waters here. While most people prefer either power boating or sailing, Florida Keys kayaking is a an excellent way to explore the Florida Bay. You can also explore the "skinny water" by canoe, sea-doo or flats boat. You can explore the reefs and fish the blue water with a power boat rented from any of a number of companies throughout the keys. We have included some boat rental companies and options below. Be sure to shop around and get the deal that suits your needs.

Check out our list of things to bring to stay comfortable and safe while on the water at Sailing Florida Keys Style.

If you are a novice to sailing and/or power boating, consider chartering yourself a boat. You can charter yourself a boat and captain for fishing, diving, sight-seeing, sunset cruises, dinner cruises, or flats fishing the back-country.

Fishing charters in the Florida Keys are very popular and there are many reputable captains available! Check out our "Fishing the Keys" page for more information!
