Fun Sandbar Trip
This was a great sand bar trip! We paddled, kayaked and swam in the beautiful waters of Snipes Point. Captain Bethany was great and told us all about the wildlife. We will definitely be back!

Best Sandbar Trip in the Keys
We had the BEST time as always during our Lazy Dog sandbar trip. Heather B. is an excellent, competent and fun captain. The spot we went to was magical and we couldn't have been happier with the whole experience. They take care to provide a first class experience (especially having water, ice, and a cooler available is great, not having to lug one ourselves.). Thanks LAZY DOG! XO

We got to touch the sea life....
We have taken this trip a couple times as well as their kayak tours. Always great guides and the perfect experience for our family of 6. I think we have had at least four different guides over the years and all have been great. On our latest trip we found a sea star, Conch and cool sea slug that was kind enough to ink us as we passed them around. How fun....

Bethany was outstanding! She provided us with so much information about the area and waters and was so accommodating with everything we wanted to do and see.

Great day in the keys
Totally worth every penny. Heather catered to us completely even down to the music we listened to. This was a laid back great day and we even brought our dog ruby and she had a blast.
