My friend and I had a wonderful time on the ECO tour. I live in Key West and I feel like I'm so glad I discovered this option for getting out on the water. We really appreciated the knowledge of the crew on the wildlife, as well as the sustainable materials used for lunch and snacks. They serve all organic foods from Date and Thyme! We were able to see dolphins, snorkel, and kayak and it was a perfect day on the water. Thank you to all that showed us a great time!

Went on the Honest Eco sunset cruise and dolphin sighting excursion this evening. Could not have been more perfect. Captain Smalls and first mate Ryan did a great job. The trip was everything we hoped for. We were not interested in a loud "booze cruise". This fit the bill. Small boat, entertaining and informative crew. We saw lots of playful dolphins, had delicious fruit, and witnessed a truly magnificent sunset. Highly recommend.

Welcoming crew. Knowledgeable. Loved that this excursion is limited. Saw many that were packed tight. Wonderful healthy snacks too!

We had a group of five go on a sunset cruise Friday March 1st. The captain and crew were welcoming and very knowledgeable making for a great cruise. The company also booked a musician, Jack Wolf, who played some original songs in addition to covers; loved Willin' by Little Feat. I highly recommend this company and would engage them again next time I visit.

My family of four had a spectacular afternoon with the Honest Eco team aboard the catamaran. Our group saw a large pod of dolphins and had a blast watching them frolic in the serene waters off of Key West. Next, we had a chance to snorkel which was honestly not quite as great as I had hoped. The area had some sunk structures with lobsters, but it wasn't the most beautiful area for diving. Still, they equipped us well and we made the most of what we had. The crew was really exceptional. Christine was our host and worked hard to share information and make sure everyone was having a great time. They fed us with fresh veggies and fruit and had water in reusable containers at the ready. The highlight for me was the cruise into port at sunset. While the masses crowded onto Mallory Square we coasted through and enjoyed the spectacular view from the water. It was breathtaking! I highly recommend d an excursion with Honest Eco. Cheers!

The company advertisement reported an organic lunch from Date and Thyme. It was fresh cut veggies with parsley hummus and fresh fruit. The boat mate was very knowledgeable and actually got into the water and showed us all kinds of fish. The captain was pleasant and knowledgeable also. The Blue Q was an older vessel but a catamaran with stairs to exit for snorkeling not ladder which is better for seniors. Advertised dolphin viewing but just saw a couple fins. They did go to the dolphin playground which I found disappointing since I brought my niece. This is the picture I took on my phone.

If you want to take a super laid back small group snorkeling and dolphin way trip HC Squid is awesome. Knowledgeable attentive crew meets all your needs. The squid is the first all electric USCG inspected vessel. Fruit and vegetable snacks and water provided. Very great trip!

This was one of our best trips! We saw about 20 dolphins and a couple came right up to the boat. Loved that the boat was electric and that the whole trip is eco friendly right down to the reusable water bottles! Lilly and Capt Jeff were a wealth of knowledge!

Did a 4 hour snorkel and dolphin watch with Captain Eric and First Mate Brian on Squid. They are fantastic. Incredibly friendly, fun, and so knowledgeable about everything about the boat (electric, I believe the only electric boat tour company in Key West!) but also about the reefs, snorkeling, dolphins-they know them by markings and have names! No plastic, all of the food served was on real plates, no plastic cups or silverware. This company lives up to their name....hyper focused on being environmentally friendly and providing a fabulous time!!! We saw a bunch of dolphins, tons of fish and other sea life. Brian snorkeled with us and pointed to everything he saw to make sure no one missed a lobster, fish, conch, you name it! Loved to hear about Captain Eric's 30+ years working on boats in Key West and elsewhere was incredible to hear about. 5 stars! Would love to come back and try Blu Q, one of Honest Eco's other boats that does sunset sails and snorkel/kayak trips. Will definitely be back!

A++++ Highly recommend! Captain Kyle & marine biologist Rachel were very knowledgeable about KW and excellent guides. We've done Fury before and Eco was 100000x better.

We took the dolphin sighting & snorkel tour. Alan & Sarah were wonderful. Very friendly & helpful. We saw lots of dolphins which was such a sweet experience. There were healthy snacks, fruits, veggies & hummus. I appreciated that Alan was wearing gloves when handling food (little things matter!). The snorkeling was great for me as a new snorkeler- shallow & calm water. I didn't see much- but I'm sure that just varies by day and isn't something staff can control. Dolphin sighting was the highlight.

Had the coolest time ever!! Both Wayne (the captain) and Bryan were amazing and answered every question we asked! We saw 8 dolphins in the first 30 minutes and then we were able to snorkel. I 100% recommend doing this adventure, it is good for just you and your significant other or fun family time! Only thing I recommend is bringing a towel for yourself and extra clothes because it is a little nippy after. They do provide blankets though!

We took the dolphin watch/snorkeling tour. Seven in our group and 4 in the other. We appreciated the small tour size and the personal attention from Jesse and Jacqueline. Both were so knowledgeable and it was clear they were both passionate about their research. The boat was eco friendly as were the reusable water bottles.Highly recommend. (This isn't a booze cruise. If that's what you are looking for... go elsewhere.)

We did 2 trips. They do smaller groups. The staff is awesome! They educate you on the area and snorkel with you to help spot wildlife. We did the dolphin watch and snorkel trip. Saw several dolphin and a couple swam right next to the boat. When snorkeling we saw a nurse shark, tarpon, lobster and many species of fish. The 2nd trip was the snorkel and sunset sail. We saw some of the same wildlife snorkeling. On the way back they raise the sails and we had a beautiful sunset cruise back.
