Ocean Reef Snorkeling on XXL Paddleboard from Dania Beach

What you'll do:

During our tour, we will be paddling in the Atlantic Ocean near the Dania Beach Pier. A guide will be with you every step of the way as we snorkel along the natural and artificial reefs. The natural reef stretches for miles along the coast; however, the artificial reefs are only in two small locations known to locals. The artificial reef is made of giant concrete jax, starting near shore and going out over 1,000 feet, ending at the natural reef. These locations are very popular with local divers for hunting fish to spear or lobsters to grab while in season. This area is the perfect place to find rare marine life and explore our beautiful reefs.

First, we will meet near the Dania Beach Pier for some brief instructions on what to expect, safety information, and where we will be paddling and snorkeling. After we all know each other a little better and have been fully briefed, we will begin to prepare our gear for the day. This includes airing up our extra-large stand-up paddleboard. Each one is large enough for ten people or 1050 pounds/ 477 kilos. Once we are all geared up, we are ready to hit the water. We will all carry the equipment together into the water and begin paddling out.

We will be snorkeling on natural and artificial reefs, depending on the current and clarity of the water that day. Our depths will range from 10 ft/3mts to about 20ft/6mts. When we are all finished, we will head back to the beach for a nice fruit snack and some drinks. Other things to note: Guests should be comfortable in the water and should know how to swim. If you have any questions, please ask!!
