Hello Adventurers!
Weather in the Florida Keys can be as unpredictable as it is beautiful. While we all love basking in the sun and enjoying crystal-clear waters, sometimes Mother Nature has other plans. But don’t worry—Capt. Mike and MyKeys Tours have you covered! Even when the weather isn’t ideal, there are plenty of hidden gems and sheltered spots where you can still have an amazing time.
Navigating the Weather with Capt. Mike
One of the key advantages of booking with MyKeys Tours is Capt. Mike’s extensive knowledge of the local waters and weather patterns. As your scheduled date approaches, Capt. Mike will keep you informed about the weather and wind conditions. He’ll communicate with you directly to ensure you’re well-prepared for your adventure. In the case of inclement weather, Capt. Mike will provide his expert advice on whether to proceed, cancel, or reschedule, always prioritizing your safety and enjoyment.
Hidden Alcoves and Sheltered Spots
Even in high seas, Capt. Mike knows just where to take you to ensure a memorable and enjoyable experience. Here are some of the sheltered spots you can explore:
Protected Lagoon: A Snorkeler’s Paradise
Tucked away from the rough seas is a tranquil protected lagoon. Here, the waters are calm, making it an ideal spot for snorkeling even when the weather isn’t perfect. The lagoon is home to a diverse array of fish and sea life, providing a vibrant underwater world to explore. There’s plenty to see beneath the surface.
Ecotour in the Bay Sheltered by Cotton Key
For those who prefer to stay above water, Capt. Mike offers an engaging ecotour in the bay sheltered by Cotton Key. This serene area is not only protected from the elements but also rich in wildlife. One of the highlights of this tour is the chance to see a crocodile in its natural habitat. Cotton Key provides a unique and fascinating ecosystem that’s perfect for nature enthusiasts and photographers alike. With a paddle board available, Capt. Mike can even take you to the bayside to explore shallow waters around Cotton Key or various other mangrove islands. There’s plenty to do and see, even if the wind and weather confines the tour to the Florida Bay.
Your Adventure, Your Choice
While Capt. Mike will always cancel trips in conditions that are dangerous or highly unfavorable, he understands that some customers might still want to venture out even in less-than-ideal weather. In these gray areas, the decision is yours. Capt. Mike will make suggestions based on his experience and knowledge, ensuring that you have all the information you need to make an informed choice.
Comfort and Safety on the Sea Fox
No matter the weather, you can count on comfort and safety aboard Capt. Mike’s 26’ Sea Fox. The boat is well-equipped to handle various conditions, ensuring a smooth and enjoyable ride.
