Explore the waters of the Florida Keys at REEF Fest 2024!

Discover the amazing marine life of the Florida Keys by diving, snorkeling, or kayaking. Eco-excursions are offered on the mornings of Thursday, Oct. 17, Friday, Oct. 18 and/or Saturday, Oct. 19 with our partners listed below.

Please book your space directly with REEF. It is not necessary to call any operators to register for REEF Fest.

Cancellation and Change Policies: All dive/snorkel trips are subject to change based on weather and other conditions. Due to the nature of REEF Fest and the large number of guests who attend, no refunds are available for cancellation or no shows. You will receive a full refund for the dive or snorkel cost if the operator cancels that day's trip; however, we are not able to offer refunds for REEF Fest diving/snorkeling under any other circumstance. 
 

**If you want to transfer an eco-excursion you have booked to another person because you can no longer participate, please send your request in writing to events@REEF.org, no later than Monday, October 14, 2024.**
