Watersports in Islamorada

Islamorada is ranked the number one area to dive by readers of Rodale, the premier dive magazine. The individualized service and attention paid by our dive operators is gratifying to our visitors and so, too, is the selection of sites. Kayakers, jetskiers, kitesurfers and other watersport enthusiasts flock to the Keys each season to enjoy our waters. In Islamorada we are dedicated to building repeat business. That means you won't feel you've been herded into the water. We've listed those firms that provide watersport trips.
