Shane and his crew have built a solid reputation for making boat and watercraft rentals genuinely enjoyable in the Marathon area. Families consistently highlight the spacious, well-maintained boats, and guides like Dave and Jason bring real local knowledge to the experience, pointing out sandbars, snorkeling spots, and marine life encounters that turn a simple rental into something memorable. The jet ski tours in particular have earned some enthusiastic reviews, with dolphin and manatee sightings adding to the excitement. That said, a handful of reviewers have experienced last-minute cancellations due to boats being out of service, which is worth keeping in mind when planning around a tight schedule. These situations appear to be mechanical or availability-related rather than the norm, and most customers describe the overall process as smooth and stress-free. If flexibility is important to your trip, it may be worth confirming your booking closer to the date. For families or groups looking to explore the Keys from the water, this is a well-regarded option with knowledgeable, personable staff who genuinely seem invested in making the day a good one.
Rented the 20 foot Cape Horn for the day, great company, great service from staff, the young guy helped us tremendously giving us spots to check out and see. We ended up going to Coffins Patch Reef through Vaca Cut and caught some snapper at a nearby spot they have marked on the map they provide. Very seamless process show up and go. You do have to fill gas on your own (which means docking and pumping gas mostly solo) so if you never rented or operated a boat I’d take some lessons the keys can be tough with shallow water and hidden dangers but if you can follow a map and think smart you’ll have a blast. Thanks paradise watersport rental I wil be back!
