Captain Ben has built a serious reputation in the Keys as a spearfishing guide who genuinely delivers. Reviewers consistently praise his ability to put people on fish, whether that's wahoo in deep blue water, snapper at shipwrecks, or lobsters along the reef. He's patient with first-timers, takes time to teach proper freediving and spearfishing technique, and adjusts plans on the fly when conditions call for it. Beyond the fishing itself, people keep coming back to how much they enjoy spending time with Ben. The vibe on the boat is relaxed and fun, and he brings real knowledge and enthusiasm to every trip. A handful of guests even booked a second day mid-trip after enjoying themselves so much. If you're heading to the Keys and want a day on the water that actually feels memorable, Ben is a strong choice.
We had a great time with Ben! There were 3 of us, all first-time spearfishers, and we did the half-day spearfishing trip. Ben gave us a lesson on breathing techniques, diving, and reloading the speargun. He was incredibly skilled at teaching everything in a way that was easy to understand and engaging. We all felt comfortable going into the water, even as complete beginners.Then we went to two different spearfishing spots, spent a good amount of time diving around, and were able to bring home 3 - 4 fish. We cooked them up afterward at the nearby Hogfish Grill. Overall, it was a great experience. Being first-timers, we were naturally a little worried about how everything would go, but we ended up having an awesome time. We were really happy that we got such a great lesson while still getting plenty of time to actually spearfish, especially for just a half-day trip. Ben was an incredible teacher and also just a great guy to hang out with for the day. Thanks again, Ben!
