Diving Etiquette

Florida Keys Dive Center has been catering to Divers and Snorkelers here in the Key Largo and Islamorada area since 1983.  Many of our customers, over the years,  have asked us what is customary in regards to tipping the crew. While there is really no set amount, the industry average, is around 10-15% of your total bill.   We believe that the quality of your Keys diving and snorkeling experience starts first with the person you talk to on the phone and follows through with the boat crew and your Dive instructors and guides.  We believe that a great experience is accomplished through a staff that works together and maintains a TEAM attitude.  Our recommendation is that you leave a tip for the whole crew when you pay your bill.  Some people may simply tip the boat crew and instructors/guides directly, if you do that, please don’t forget to thank the store and reservation personnel also, for their service.

We hope to see you all down here in the Keys real soon.  If you have any questions please call.  We look forward to helping you experience the best diving and snorkeling in the Florida Keys.

Winter in the Keys

January 10, 2017

Well winter has finally hit the Keys! Last week we were enjoying flat calm seas with temperatures in the mid 80’s. This week, locals are putting their winter coats, beanies, and scarves on for the CHILLING temperatures in the low 60’s! As you can tell by looking at the wind and wave height above, we will be staying on dry land for a few more days. We are planning to be back into the water soon!

Check out our upcoming dives on our calendar and our Totally Wrecked Tour this summer, July 11th- July 14th.
