    As a longtime Key West resident, I can say this was a great video and you two seem so sweet. A couple of helpful tips: snorkeling on the Key West reef is very different than the snorkeling you did in Key West. You were in what we call the Back Country on the Gulf side, which is where you will find the shallower waters, great mangrove kayaking and dolphin encounters. Snorkeling on the reef, which is on the Atlantic side, is where you will find the deeper clear water with the beautiful coral and colorful fish. Also, the weather in the summer is much more predictable and tends to lend itself to better water conditions(less wind = clearer water). Plus, it’s not nearly as crowded, so it’s much easier to get reservations to pretty much anything. Be sure to go back and visit the Dry Tortugas. It’s an adventure of a lifetime. ❤
