John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park



One of the best snorkeling locations on the east coast is John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park.  From the visitor's center, you can board a catamaran to be taken out to one of the various snorkeling sites in the park. The site you'll be taken to is dependent on the weather and ocean for the day, so you never know what you might get to see.

You can either bring your own snorkeling equipment, or rent it from the visitor's center, including wet suits.  It takes about 30 to 40 minutes for the boat to get out to the snorkeling site.  Once there, you get about an hour out in the water to see some beautiful coral and sea life.  This is definitely a trip that is worth it and we'd highly recommend visiting when in Key Largo.
