Captain's Corner Dive Center

Had an awesome afternoon 2-tank reef dive with Captain’s Corner in Key West! The entire staff was incredibly helpful, professional and made everything feel easy and well-organized. The boat was clean and comfortable and the gear was in great shape. I rented everything—including mask and fins—and it was all set up and ready for me right on the boat, which made traveling and diving super convenient. Great experience from start to finish. I would absolutely dive with them again.

Wow what a great time, my son got certified and his friend and myself tagged along. Me being already certified it was a great two days. Rachel his drive instructor was so attention to detail and helped him navigate through the course with ease. The owners Jen & her Mother, the boat Crew Patrick & Amanda and other instructor on the boat was so fun to be around. Derek for taking pictures because I forgot my gopro. Definitely recommend if your looking to get certified or just want to dive, all of them take pride in what they do!!!

Wonderful experience with Captain's Corner over two days. I brought my 18 year old son with me to get his open water certification and he's all in on Scuba. Captain's Corner was responsive, professional and locked in before and during our visit. Our dive guide Derek was outstanding....both in terms of his knowledge of diving as well as the quality of his instruction. We'll be back to dive the Vandenberg with Derek as soon as we can!

We went to Captains Corner for our open water certification. The entire staff was helpful and friendly. Mornings working in the pool and then afternoons on the ocean really helped us understand diving. Derek was a very patient and thorough instructor, plus he's just a cool guy. Thank you all!

You will have a fantastic time with Captain’s Corner! My friend and I dove today with them: my friend completed the discover scuba program and I dove alongside her with my OW cert. Tony is an amazing instructor in the pool and in the ocean - super knowledgeable and was able to give me a good refresher while also making sure my friend knew everything she needed. The whole crew is very safe. We did two reef dives and saw so many different fish, a turtle, a sting ray, etc. It was fantastic and we’d definitely come back!

Diving with Captains Corner is so much fun! We got a really nice supirse with Derek Our guide, who took our pics under the water. Will go back with these guys. Always professional and a great time!

Best diving operation, contacted them before my trip and spoke to Leslie who was very responsive to all my questions and quick call backs. On dive day the process was easy, checked in, and was on the boat introduced to the dive masters and off we were. 1st Dive the Vandernburg, an amazing wreck experience, a must do for bucket list divers. Second day of diving was on the reef paid extra for the guide Dereck $70 it was well worth it, he was kind enough to take pictures as my camera was not working, which made the experience even better. So much to see lots of rays, sharks and turtles, it was awesome. The captains Ricky and Zack were so much fun and safe, extra points for dry humor. I highly recommend Captains Corner for diving on the Keys

We had a really positive experience diving with Scuba instructor Derek in Key West. He is a knowledgeable, friendly guide who clearly prioritizes safety and making the dives enjoyable. We especially appreciated his follow-up with the video service. He quickly shared the edited dive clips, which were high-quality and make for a great memory of our trip. It's a professional and personal touch that sets him apart. We highly recommend Derek and look forward to diving with him again!

If you're not diving with Captain's Corner, you're doing it wrong! Leslie was incredibly helpful when I initially called for more information on getting certified. I had called other dive shops here in Key West and did not receive the info/friendliness as I did with Captain's Corner. I was able to get my PADI open water certification with Mac, and went out on 3 different days for dives. Mac is actually the best instructor ever - super knowledgeable, a great teacher, very experienced, and patient, as well as the superstar entire crew (Amanda, Ricky, and Zach) I seriously cannot recommend this place enough!! I can't wait to come back to Key West and dive with them again!

Captains corner is my favorite dive center of key west! As a local, who lives here I dive with Captain's corner about twice a month. so it's about time I write a review to help other tourists and people choosing a Dive shop in Key West. The entire crew from the front desk, to the deck, hands to the captain, are all amazing and make you feel safe. The crew here are seriously the BEST. even people that work here always dive with them on their day off that's how great these guys are! The boat is great, freshwater showers, and an upper deck seating area with great views. They even have a fresh water hose on board to rinse your gear off. Other Dive operations in Key West don't allow this. they want you to use their dunk tanks back on shore. Captains corner is also the most popular dive shop in Key West, which I like as a solo diver. It's easy to pair up with a buddy on board. This is important because in the Florida Keys most dive shops do not automatically give you a Dive guide in the water. You have to pay extra for a guide, so make sure you have a buddy! Also because they are more popular shop, they are less likely to cancel on you for having not enough people on board. Captains corner is more dependable with daily trips. My Favorite dive site is the Vandenberg shipwreck. It's an advanced dive 100 feet depth so they make sure only advanced divers with the proper experience can go for everyone's safety. If you aren't advanced, you can get your advanced certification through them, so you can do this Dive!

Amazing instructors and crew always there to help you out. Thank you for going above and beyond.

Diving in the waters off Key West with Captain's Corner was a great experience. Jen answered all of my questions over the phone and email in the weeks before I signed up my family of four for a day of reef dives and two wreck dives. She accommodated my schedule changes and answered questions in email consistently and clearly. On the day of our first dive, we checked in at their booth, paperwork was done quickly, and then we waited just a few yards away while the boat was being prepped for the trip. Dive guides are an extra cost, but worth it of you want a worry free trip. Derek made sure our rental gear was in order, gave us a personal briefing after the boat's dive master Amanda gave a general briefing, and after a 40 minute ride, we arrived, and had a well guided dive. The reef dive we did was shallow (max depth around 30') and that led to a long dive, cut short by the hour long time limit we were given. That was plenty of time for my taste. I prefer dives with more depth, as 15' depths aren't as interesting to me. On our second and third days we dove the Vandenburg wreck. It was awesome. This is a huge wreck with plenty to see. I believe it when they say it is a world class wreck dive. There were many swim throughs, different levels, stairs and rooms to go through. There is more than enough to experience that you'd never get bored exploring this large artificial reef. Derek took us through a thoughtful route of the ship and took videos and pictures which he shared with us afterwards. He did a great job making sure we had a quality trip and his humor is pretty funny. Thanks CC!

First of all the reservation process was smooth. I had several questions and Jen was very helpful and responded super quick! Next the day of our reservation was also smooth. The crew were engaging before we even boarded and made us feel like guests on board and that they were happy we were there! Ricky stood out getting us settled and gear fitted. Also engaging- and true professional. We scheduled a guide for our two tank reef dive and scored a great one. Derrick stuck with us, gave us a dive plan, safety checks, reviewed hand signals... all by the book. Then he and Ricky set up our gear before we knew it! Outstanding experience. Oh and the gear, they say on the website it's well maintained. I think the BCD was new! Great gear! Can't wait to return.

Weird story - but an epic dive! I need to shout out three dive outfits (Lost Reef Adventures, Captains Corner and Southpoint Divers) and one stellar DM (Mike Rice)! Here goes: I was scheduled (months in advance) to dive the USS Vandenberg shipwreck through Lost Reef Adventures. I selected Lost Reef based on positive online reviews. The evening before my dive (November 30, 2023), Chris calls me to let me know that there weren't any other recreational divers scheduled for the morning of December 1st and thus it didn't make good business sense for them to send a DM, crew and a boat out for a single diver (it's a bummer, but I totally understood). What I didn't expect was for Chris to refer me to another dive shop in town. BEFORE he called me, he coordinated with Jen at Captains Corner who confirmed she had a handful of divers scheduled for December 1st and that I was welcome to join them if I still wanted to dive 'the Vandy.' Chris texted me directions to Captain's Corner's vessel and where to check-in. I checked in with Jen, met the guys scheduled to dive with me on this morning (all of whom were great) and waited for the crew to get the vessel up and going. The vessel was spacious with an upper viewing deck, fresh-water shower and a hose to clean off gear. There was an issue getting the ship going. Though they figured they could get it going in about 30 minutes they didn't want us waiting so they refunded our booking and escorted us to Southpoint Divers - except Mike came along to be our DM! So, Southpoint booked us, charged us basically the same (reasonable) rate Captain's Corner charged us and we just paid Mike his DM fee directly (he was open to cash or Venmo which made it real convenient). Diving the Vandy was awesome and I attribute it to Mike's skills... he's great with people, cares about safety and was a blast to hang out with! Plus, he sent me a really cool video of our dive (edited, music and all)! I will definitely be joining him and others in Cozumel soon and will look to dive with him next time I'm in Key West. The Southpoint Divers crew was awesome, and the boat was the same as Captains Corner. I sincerely appreciated both Lost Reef and Captains Corner for having our backs and making a way for us to do this dive! Stellar customer service all the way around! This experience could have been a massive failure; instead, it's rekindled my hope in humanity. There are still good people and businesses that believe in customer service!

Got to do 6 dives with "Five Star Mike" as a guide and instructor. Couldn't ask for a better experience. The entire staff was amazing and the dives were great. Couldn't recommend them more.

5 star rating ! They are so easy and sweet to work with! They are very reasonable price with . We did a two tank dive with husband and daughter today Every time I dive I need to be put at ease even though I have been diving for years and everywhere. New waters always worry me The team was amazing! The boat was clean. They helped. They were so easy to work with . I would give it a 6 star if I could ! Will be back for more We saw dolphins, stingrays, barracudas, sand dollars and a million fish!

Amazing Dive Center. With an amazing staff. They were friendly, knowledgeable, and professional. Derek Bardini was our divemaster, and he insured we were safe and that we had a good time. He even went the extra mile to capture some amazing footage of our dive in 4K. And was kind enough to share it with us. I highly recommend these guys if you're in the Key West area looking for a great diving experience.

Wow what a fantastic dive shop! This was our first time ever diving and the entire crew was amazing. Jen emailed and called me several times to answer questions and walk me through the process. Tony and Mike were awesome instructors! And Justin, Amanda and Billy were top notch on the Sea Eagle. Would not dive anywhere else. Safe, clean, professional and awesome!

Great experience, amazing crew. Tony is a great discovery dive instructor. Fun, patient, and professional. Very good communication before and after my dive and instruction. Highly recommend. Bring cash to tip crew afterwards

Captains corner is a great dive shop that offers extensive certifications for every level, shout out to Ben for guiding us through several dives and being very patient as we completed our Advanced open water. If you are from out of state and considering traveling to earn more certifications or simply looking for a great dive shop in Key West, I can't recommend this team more. Very organized, competitively priced, multiple instructors, diving for every level and an amazing boat with the latest in gear for their rentals. I will definitely be back to Captains Corner!

Took this operator for a second trip to the Vandenberg dive site and the crew could not have hustled more to make it a great trip. As a single diver, I was paired up with a real whack job and given the fact that we were going to 110 feet and have a current, I had my hands full as a scuba buddy. This guy cared more about his camera equipment than he did how much air he had left. When I got back on board the ship, I told the dive master that I wasn't going to dive with the guy again because he wasn't safe. They immediately sprung into action, told me I did not have to deal with him, paired him up with a dive master so I would not be burdened, and then had the amazing grace and hospitality to make no one feel uncomfortable or less then. A real class act given how difficult the situation was for all parties. This on top of their hospitality and positive energy made it for a great dive.

Safe, Professional, and Fun! Great experience with Captain Ricky, Victoria for refresher glass and dive, and Amanda. Also, impressive setup for dive refresher with on-site pool followed by reef dives!

Great dive center! I've been diving for almost 30 years so have been on a many dive boats through many dive centers. From booking the trip through the last dive of my trip, Leslie, Capt Brad, Amanda and John were wonderful! Extremely knowledgeable, professional, and just great people. They easily made even the newest divers on the boat feel comfortable! All around, a 5 Star experience and I look forward to diving with them again in the near future!

So very happy with them. From trying to get a spot on the boat, to the 30 or so minute ride out to the reefs. The snorkeling itself was magical. I manage to get sick from swallowing so much salt water... here's a tip future snorkelers.. if you have bangs and cannot clip them back or what ever, slick your hair back with water so NONE of your hair gets stuck in your goggles. It will ruin the suction of the goggles and cause a little trouble. Anyway, everyone was so pleasant. I had to run to my parking spot to add time to it, and the lovely captain (sorry i forgot your name) waited for me. They have fresh cold water on the boat that is very refreshing, especially being on the salty waters. The waves were a bit choppy today, but that is only the weathers fault. I highly recommend.

Friendly and helpful staff and crew from planning before arrival to dive day, highly recommend Captain's Corner!

This was my 11th dive and my birthday I got to spend the morning with this crew. Mike was my guide and hands down the best experience in all my travels and all my dives. We had a CRAZY trip but I learned so much outside of the box skills that would never be thought without being thrown in the mix. The wreck was so amazing and Mike from start to finish made sure I had the time of my life (I told him I had some high expectations for my birthday). The captain was so skilled and helped out so much in our wild situation but everyone came together and made a trip I don't think any of the crew will forget. Thanks Mike for a great time! I will be back!

This is the company to dive with in Key West! Top notch equipment, crew, boat, and customer service! They have a pool to get you started and used to the equipment and the whole scuba program. Got my PADI open water certification, never once did I feel uncomfortable. They go at your pace, make sure your comfortable and most of all they treat you like your important instead of a source of cash! They actually learn your name and everyone gets you by name! Very friendly, incredibly secure and safe!

Several Facebook diving friends recommended Captain's Corner to me when I mentioned my trip to Key West. Ended up booking a AM wreck dive of the Vandenberg, and a PM reef dive. Kudos to Jen for working with me as I went several changes to the itinerary due to my friends wishes. Dive cost was $85 for just tanks and weights (my own gear). Instructions to check in and to the dive boat were comprehensive and accurate. The captain and crew of the Sea Eagle as well as the CC coordinator, Rick, were very professional and ensured that we had a great day diving. There was water and light snacks available. I splurged by getting nitrox for both dives and a guide for the wreck. I'm glad I did! Levi was very professional and took me on several of the easier passthroughs that I would have been hesitant about doing them with another diver unfamiliar with the Vandenberg. The wreck lies about 100-120 feet, so near the limit of nitrox and recreational diving. But what an awesome sight! Because the wreck is relatively new, it was really interesting to see new coral growths and baby fishes inhabiting it. This was my first dive with my camera, so I know my pictures did not it justice. The PM reef dive was a nice dessert after that deep wreck dive. Maybe 30 feet max, the reefs were alive with fish. Really interesting to see several different species of fish in schools, as well as all the delicate coral growths. Overall a very enjoyable day, and one I definitely will repeat with Captain's Corner in Key West as soon as possible! Highly recommend and will return!

Went scuba diving on 9.28.2020 and it was easily one of the best days of my life. They are very clean, professional, and patient. They even helped my significant other plan/video our proposal!!! Our instructor John was incredibly kind and ensured we felt safe the whole time. We can't wait to go back!!!

Great dives with these guys. I was also able to have my son do a discover dive on the reefs and was able to see an eel, sting ray and shark! They are super patience. Thanks a bunch to the whole staff

I had such a wonderful experience learning scuba diving basics during the 1-Day Discover Scuba Diving with Tony that I decided that I wanted to get Open Water Diver certified as well. I was on a 2 1/2 day time crunch before flying home. Leslie helped me plan my certification with my instructor while also speedily completing the elearning required to shorten the time it would take to get certified. I went through my certification course with my instructor Mac who is a fantastic teacher and leader. He went through everything I had to know how to do while in the pool in a more relaxed environment compared to the ocean. The crew on the boat took us to the most breathtaking dive spots with an array of fish and marine life. I felt supported and safe through every step of the way and I couldn't thank everyone at Captain's Corner enough! I look forward to a chance to return there and feel immensely prepared for my next dive. I encourage everyone, beginner to advanced, to check out this excellent establishment!

Excellent dive operator! The DiveMaster and staff on the boat were helpful and gave clear instructions on safety and diving site instructions! Highly recommend!

First of all, this is the only dive shop in Key West that I called in the summer and asked about conditions for diving the Vandenberg that told me if I could come back in the fall that would be a better time for that specific dive. I was concerned about visibility and wanted to make sure we were diving in optimal conditions. The folks at Captain's Corner are nothing short of amazing. The Captain was terrific, the dive master was extremely thorough and helped everyone and our guides were fantastic. The gear was good and they were very safety conscious. Every other dive shop I called in the summer said the visibility on the Vandenberg was great in the middle of the summer. Captain's Corner had availability for that dive in the summer but didn't want us to be disappointed with the visibility due to summer sugar cane farm runoff. I appreciated the honesty of the folks at Captain's Corner. We went back in October and dove the Vandenberg and had an absolutely amazing experience. We won't dive with anyone else.

Captain's Corner is a pretty big operation, but I felt like they were still very organized. We did the morning and afternoon dives. The morning dive was Vandenburg and the afternoon dives were reef dives. I thought the visibility for the reef dives were not very good. I had been diving in Key Largo and Isla Morada a day prior to Key West and the visibility for Key Largo and Isla Morada was like 70 feet! Key West....maybe was like 15-20 feet. I don't know why. Captain's Corner has no control over visibility. I still think they have a 5 star dive operation and I would highly recommend them to fellow divers.

Captain's Corner team was outstanding. Completed my advanced open water course with Joe. Course was 2 dives on the reef and 4 dives on the Vandenberg spread across 3 days. Joe was very thorough in explaining the plan and goals for each dive. Kept a close eye on me during every dive as well. Everything felt very safe. Would highly recommend and would be happy to dive with this team again in the future.

OMG!!!!! What an experience. I did scuba diving lessons here from Steph Paige. She's awesome!!! She taught my two grandchildren, my daughter and her husband as well as myself how to scuba dive. She's VERY ATTENTIVE and knows what each of us needed in order for us to learn. I'd recommend anybody to come here for scuba driving lessons. And YES I'd do it again!!!!

Went diving with these crazy folks and could not have had more fun. The crew is so funny and helpful, the wreck dives were amazing. I was paired with a young, good looking Costgaurd diver named Trevor, be still my heart. If I was a lot younger....any whoooo, it was the best dive trip I have ever had. They also have a shop but they always have the gate locked so you have to call her to get in. The owner is an animal lover and extremely nice. Will post video when I get home.

Fantastic experience. I took their afternoon reef dive. It had been quite a while since my previous dive, so I wanted to be cautious. I paid to go with an instructor. Everyone on the boat was as friendly and helpful as could be. I've generally had good experiences on boat dives. However, with everything going on it can sometimes seem a bit hectic (especially if you are out of practice). But Captain's Corner gave very personal attention to everyone. And my instructor/guide Sage was wonderful. She was very patient and went over everything with me in detail. I will definitely go with Captain's Corner my next time in Key West.

Well organized dive company with a nice staff, good equipment and a very nice boat (not too small not too big) and equipped with a toilet on board. Staff was really nice helpful with equipment and added assistance constantly if needed. I did the morning wreck dive which is about 85-120 feet. The staff was very well organized with instruction and suggestions about what to expect and how best to dive the large wreck. Not as many fish as I would have expected but had nice visibility and managed both dives effectively. Really the only disappointing thing was they offer no refreshments...the only thing they offered was cups of fresh water. I'm used to bottles of water, juices etc, fresh fruit and snacks. They offered nothing. So bring your own, there is a little cafe open before the dive that sells some basic things you can pack also providing a bathroom before your set off.

We recently had the opportunity to go Scuba diving with Captain's Corner while in Key West for our honeymoon and had a awesome time! It was our first time Scuba diving and our instructor John was great! He made sure that we felt totally comfortable before we got into the water and then proceeded to show us around some beautiful reefs. I highly recommend considering Scuba diving when you visit Key West and I wouldn't do it with anyone other than Captain's Corner Dive Center!

Where to begin ! I'm relatively experienced but haven't dived in a while. This was a great place to get back in the groove. The boat is clean and well laid out, the gear is in great shape, and most importantly, Bradley (Captain) and Billy (Divemaster) and their crew are all very professional and friendly. They made everyone feel welcome, were incredibly helpful, and made sure everyone had a great time. I CAN NOT say enough good things about this dive crew. Don't forget to ask about the Military Discount if you're military (thank you !). You WILL have a great dive experience, I guarantee it !! And I will be back !!

I have to say I've been very impressed with Captains Corner. The owner Leslie was very informative on how to accomplish the dive training I was looking for and considering they have the only on-location dive pool on Key West that is VERY convenient. Tony was my instructor. I don't know about you but I prefer experience when learning technical skills such as diving and Tony has been teaching SCUBA since 1975 so yes I prefer his experience than having some 23 year old train me. Tony has a great personality and obviously loves diving since he has been doing it longer than I've been alive (1977) You can't make a mistake going with this training center, their boat is top notch and has a great crew.

Top notch staff, customer service and attention to detail. Everyone I met at Captain's Corner was knowledgeable and friendly. Dive instruction and equipment were all excellent. Prices are fair and along the lines of what you'd expect. I highly recommend this shop to anyone regardless of skill level.

As first-time divers we were nervous, but Captain's Corner went through everything and made us feel safe. We did the 1-day diving experience and it was pretty simple- you do training in their pool/classroom in the morning and in the afternoon their boat takes you to do the real thing in the 3rd largest coral reef in the World! Levi was an incredible instructor. The entire crew is friendly and we had a great captain and dive-master on board as well. I hope one day I can get my certification and come back to see the shipwrecks.

We had a great experience with captains corner. Jen was really responsive when I was first booking our trip and everything went perfectly on the day our dive. Ben was a fantastic dive guide and it was definitely worth having him along. Even with a limited visibility day he helped make sure we saw an amazing variety of sea life.

I highly recommend this dive center. For many years I have wanted to have the PADI Open Water Certificate. My wife and I decided to get certified at Captain's Corner this summer. It was a wise decision to do it with this company. From beginning to end, the staff at Captain's Corner were warm and attentive, and the price tag was very reasonable. Our instructor was John, a diver with a lot of experience and a loving and patient personality, who accompanied us throughout the whole process making it fun and enjoyable as well as didactic. The idea of ​​getting this certificate was mine, in fact my wife was a little afraid. But John taught us us both with infinite patience and great didactic skills which made both my wife and I feel calm and safe throughout the whole process. He continuously adapted his teaching speed to our rhythm and pace, giving us very good advice on safety, equipment, protocols and the enjoyment of diving. He repeated things we did not understand as many times as was necessary for us to be clear. He proved to be not only a professional and methodical person, but very well organized: it was clear that the progression of exercises and dives precisely calculated. I really feel grateful for all the attention and care he showed us throughout our certification process, because the first impression of diving will determine how you develop and grow as a diver for the rest of your life. The diving school is nice and friendly, the program is personalized and the dives on the reefs we made with them were enjoyable and interesting. Both our instructor and the crew of the boat that took us to the diving areas at sea, showed great professionalism and care, constantly ensuring our safety on board as well as getting in and out of the water. It is difficult to find good divers, probably even more difficult to find good teachers, but finding a person who meets both skills is really rare: John meets them. I am very glad that I made the decision to do this course with them, because the other option we had was to do this course in an artificial lake in Pennsylvania (we live in NY), which would have been only a little bit cheaper. Our experience with Captain's Corner was totally worth that little extra expense. I am immensely grateful to the entire Captain's Corner team for the care and affection they bestow on their clients and their work. None of the negative reviews I have read in Yelp reviews were true in our case, everything was very good, responsible, safe and enjoyable. If you are thinking about getting your diving certificate with Captain's Corner, I strongly encourage you to do it.

Excellent crew, great boat to learn to scuba and get certified. John was the best instructor, patient and knowledgeable.

Great time diving with Captain's Corner. A very professional and thorough team of divers. We did the 2 tank dive to the Vandenberg wreck and it was magnificent. We had a guide, Eileen, who was awesome in prepping us and also bringing us to see quite a bit of the wreck, swim-throughs, etc. The captain and the whole crew did a great job as well. Highly recommend this dive shop!

Can't say enough good things about these guys. Awesome dives, very professional and polite. DM Ricky was very helpful, and guide John was perfect, thanks guys. Also, the best captain in the keys. Will see you guys next time. Daniel and Kimberly.

We did 2 near shore reef dives this morning and the crew was fantastic. Everything from the first greeting over the phone to in person, getting our gear to informing us about the Dave sites was excellent. Would definitely come back and dive with them again.

Got sent over from Southpoint whose boat motor blew. The check in was efficient, the price was average for Key West ...about 145 for all gear rental plus guide. Our guide Chetty was very attentive and took his time with us. We were out there for a good while from about 930-1pm so I told the Capt it would be nice to have a few snacks...they had plenty of water but no snacks . most companies ive dove with offer a little something to munch on. Other than that it was an efficient operation.

Ended up diving with this company on a last minute trip to Key West and seeing it's high Google reviews. Had some difficulties getting in contact with their office, called twice and got no answer and third call spoke to a lady who was very pleasant but seemed a bit scattered. Our interactions with the other guides was a bit abrasive, one was very rude. Also we were disappointed that both dives were the same wreck; this meant that the hour in between dives was spent moored in the pretty moderate chop. System was typical of a standard cattle boat, would be frustrating as an experienced diver. Did the morning wreck dive, was a pretty impressive large wreck. Water wasn't as clear as prime diving spots or the Bahamas, but was pretty average for the keys. Crew had an intense focus on safety that would be great for beginners. The highlight was our knowledgable, friendly, and top notch dive guide!

Did my open water advanced certification and these guys were great. Fun knowledgeable staff.. professional. Great equipment and a comfortable vessel... totally worth it. In fact I'll be back in June

I think that my opinion represents the views of our small dive club out of Fort Worth TX. We dive as a group once each year, and this year it was with Captain's Corner in Key West. We range in experience from 30 to 200 dives, everyone has been to 100+ ft. We expected to assemble our equipment and take responsibility for navigation on each dive, but we were delighted to find that the crew dive masters were more than happy to lead us on a few, and swap our tanks. We hired a guide for the Vandy, good decision, the swim-throughs were awesome. From Captain to trainee, the crew were first class in skills, professionalism, helpfulness and humor. We ended up adding an extra day on the boat because the entire operation was just perfect. Thanks to Capt. Scott for noticing that I didn't put my fins on before stepping off on the 6th dive. Whew!

We had an amazing couple of dives with the Captain, Amanda and the instructors at Captain's Corner. Excellent trip, well-equipped boat and fantastic crew. The reefs were spectacular, warm water, great viz and we did 50-60 minutes of bottom time. First rate operation with a convenient location in Key West. We'll definitely be back to dive with Captain's Corner.

Amazing experience and well worth the money. We did the discover scuba and started out our day in their private swimming pool/scuba training location. After a nice lunch break we boarded the dive boat and had a few stretches of lovely boat rides. The boat had our small discover scuba group in addition to other divers. Our instructor was wonderful and taught us so much about diving. The dive sites are remarkable and the coral heads were stunning. We felt safe and well-lead the entire time!

The best dive facility on Key West. Extremely polite, professional and most of all SAFE! I wouldn't dive with any other place. Ask for Jennifer for your instructor, you won't be disappointed!

Captain's Corner did an excellent job ensuring my friends and I had an awesome time diving the Vandenberg. They communicated well about weather issues from bad storms that had recently come through the area, and made sure our dive was safe and worth while considering the conditions. Billy was an excellent dive master and did an excellent job explaining the dive site, helping us plan our dives, and ensuring we had all the equipment we needed ready to go. I hope to come back to Key West and dive with Captain's Corner again!!!
