(Drivebycuriosity) - My wife and I are continuing our vacation in Florida. We are staying now in Key West, the most southern point of continental USA (without Hawaii). Yesterday we took a four hours boat tour to Marquesas Key north-west of the island.
The water there is very shallow, just some feet deep, and filled with fish. This attracts lots of dolphins, the main attraction of this tour. We were lucky to observe some of these mammalia. They usually dive, of course, to devour on the rich diet of fish.
We were lucky to see some of them jumping and at least one of them seemed to follow our boat for a minute or so.
The tour also contained some minutes snorkeling. This part was a bit disappointing because the water was very shallow, maybe just 6 or 7 feet deep. The sandy ground looked spooky, like a swamp covered with ugly white plants. There were plenty of fish, but most were grey or black. But watching the dolphins compensated and made the tour a nice experience.
