We are dedicated to protecting the local ecosystem through education, exposure, and environmental impact efforts to clean and preserve our beautiful waters. These tours focus on sustainable efforts and green initiatives while adhering to ethical practices and procedures set by the Global Sustainable Tourism Council (GSTC). All ocean tours are provided by AQUI Water Sports, the top-rated snorkel and diving facility in Lauderdale by the Sea.. 

The Florida State Park system is one of the nicest places to visit in the US from Palm Beach to the Keys.  These reefs are toured by thousands of divers yearly for their beauty and wildlife. Florida’s ocean and shoreline are amazing! Coral reefs are also one of the most threatened marine systems. Scientists estimate that unless we take immediate action, we could lose up to 70 percent of coral reefs by 2050.

Colorful parrot fish, angelfish, wrasses, barracuda, nurse sharks, stingrays, delicate corals, other invertebrates, and turtles – all are inhabitants of Florida’s beautiful coral reefs. The Florida Reef System (FRS) is the largest coral reef ecosystem in the continental US, with its extensive shallow coral reefs that span 358 miles from the Dry Tortugas near Key West, north along the Atlantic coast to Martin County. Our treasured coral reefs provide Florida with many benefits. Not only are they home to many species of wildlife, including species listed as Threatened under the Endangered Species Act, but they are also integral to the economy of Florida’s tourism industry, including commercial and recreational fishermen and scuba divers. Additionally, they act as a natural buffer for Florida’s shoreline, helping to lessen the strength of waves, and providing natural support for coastal resilience.

AQUI is located in one of the busiest destinations in Broward County, Lauderdale by the Sea:  Click here for Directions

The Town of Lauderdale-By-The-Sea is approximately 1.5 square miles in area and is located along Florida’s “Gold Coast” in Broward County, Florida. The entire Town is situated between the Atlantic Ocean on the east and Intracoastal Waterway on the west. It is bordered on the south by the City of Fort Lauderdale and on the north by the City of Pompano Beach. The Town is located on a barrier island that is 7 feet above sea level. Lauderdale-By-The-Sea is 30 miles north of Miami and 33 miles south of Palm Beach.

Once you arrive in this coastal community of 6,000 residents, it’s a short walk just about anywhere: to the beach, to Anglin’s Pier, or to the numerous shops and restaurants lining Commercial Blvd from Anglin’s Square, the town’s quaint oceanfront district, to the Intracoastal. The town’s vibrant beach area offers live music in various restaurants seven days a week, or if you’d rather just take it easy and stare at the ocean, just sit yourself down on one of the boat benches under the beach pavilion.

 

Snorkeling Eco-Tour
$59 / Per Person

This 1.5-hour eco-tour is dedicated to showcasing our beautiful reefs within a few hundred feet of the coastline. We will spend time in water time snorkeling, and showcasing the abundance of marine life, coral reefs, and the impact of human and natural interactions. We follow local tide charts to get the best visibility and provide safety for all group members. The snorkeling tour is very popular with our guests, who very often want a more intimate experience than just swimming. 

AQUI provides high-quality and complimentary snorkel equipment on all its excursions including children’s sizes. Staff will help size and fit equipment correctly. For those that wish to snorkel down (freediver), weight belts will be provided. 

NOTE: All guests are required to wear a snorkeling safety vest during the tour. This is for our safety and yours.

For guests that may experience feeling ‘colder’ than your typical person, we do offer Sharkskin Chillproof tops for $5 additional per person. This way you can stay warm and enjoy the sites. If you would like full thermal protection, wetsuits are available for $10. Typically for snorkeling tours, the Sharkskin is mostly used.

SCUBA Diving Eco-Tour

$139 / Per Person 

SCUBA Diving is simply an amazing and enjoyable experience. The ability to breathe and visualize ecosystems hidden by a layer of water captivates every soul. As a diver, it’s important to make sure your dive site and dive company support sustainable diving. Diving in destinations that take reef and ocean preservation seriously is another great way to keep these biodiverse ecosystems (and the species that call them home) as pristine and vibrant as possible. Across the East Coast of Florida, the keys, we are surrounded by these ecosystems. Some are within walking distance in a state park, others require marine vessels to get there. We provide tours to a host of locations; however, our most popular is Lauderdale by the Sea.

We provide private guiding both locally, and internationally, for customers looking to have qualified safety instructor with them at all times. We’ve worked with celebrities, production studios, private companies, and completed training in dozens of countries. Check our Google Reviews to see why we are recognized internationally for safety, fun experience, and highest quality training standards in South Florida.

For our most popular tour, there are two reefs full of marine life easily accessible from the shore.
