Key West
Kayaking
Key West Eco-Tours. Key West is surrounded by marinas, so it's easy to find what you're looking for, whether it's sailing with dolphins or paddling in the mangroves. These sail-kayak-snorkel excursions take you into backcountry flats and mangrove forests without the crowds. The 4½-hour trip costs $99 per person and includes lunch. Private sunset sails ($295) and private charters ($545) are also available. Historic Seaport, 100 Grinnell St., Key West, FL, 33040. 305/294-7245. www.keywestecotours.com.
Lazy Dog Kayak Guides. Take a two- or four-hour guided sea kayak-snorkel tour around the mangrove islands just east of Key West. The $40 or $60 charge, respectively, covers transportation, bottled water, a snack, and supplies, including snorkeling gear. Paddleboard tours are $40. Rentals for self-touring are also available. 5114 Overseas Hwy., Key West, FL, 33040. 305/295-9898. www.lazydog.com.
SUP Key West. The latest Florida hybrid water sport involves a surfboard and a paddle, a Hawaii transplant known as stand-up paddleboarding.
