Diving the Florida Keyswith Key DivesKey Dives is at Bud N' Mary's Marina on Islamorada in the Florida Keys, a destination for divers from all around the world adjacent to the largest living reef in the United States.
Scuba Divers are overwhelmed by the massive volume and unparalleled variety of aquatic life resulting from the nutrient rich waters of the Gulf of Mexico meeting with the warm tropical waters of the Gulf Stream. It's no surprise that it's
been awarded the title: Go to the Key Dives web site |

Key Dives Service"The Treatment" - Some have called what we do "Goochi" Diving (sorry, we can't spell it correctly without paying for it!). What is "The Treatment"?
If you hire a dive guide, all we ask of our divers is to breathe and kick!

Guided Dives At Key DivesWe actually love to dive and we absolutely despise sitting on the boat when we could be blowing bubbles underwater. So, for as little as $70 for a three 2-tank dive minimum, you can have a divemaster guide you to all the cool stuff on your dive.
Unguided Dives - For those that prefer to do it on their own, that is fine. We offer the most competitive prices for you independent folk. Regardless, you will still receive "The Treatment."
We provide all our divers with fresh fruit, cookies and bottled water.
