It's my 5th time there and it's still an awesome place to be. Had a great time jet skiing, snorkeling, kayaking, parasailing, riding scooters up and down the beach, swimming in the crystal clear south florida beach. The weather is 85 degrees every day.

Ask me any questions :)

7 miles off shore from key west, the ocean water is so clear you can see the fishes. This is where we stop and snorkel.

I did the all day Fury ride a few months ago too. It was awesome!
:thumbsup:
When we went it was only 16 people (8 couples) on the Catamaran. Holy shit it was sweet!!! It feels like we privately chartered the thing :)

It was talking to the crew and they said it usually have 80 or more people.

how much did a vacation like that cost you?
Not much at all.

$452 - For 2 rooms & 6 days @ the hotel. Walk behind the hotel and you're at Ft. Lauderdale beach (The pic where I went watchin the sunrise)

$133 - 7 Days car rental. It's just a cheap 2009 Nissan Versa.

That's pretty much it. I brought $1000 for spending money while we're down there and it was plenty. Spent it on:

$150 - Per person for the key west adventure package. They took you out to the ocean in Keys West to snorkel, jet ski, parasailing, kayaking. Food & alcohol included. www.bestonkeywest.com

$50 - Rent the scooter for the entire day in Pompano Beach, riding up and down Ocean BLVD. It's beautiful.

$69 - Per Person for the Miami Tour. They take a bus and tour you throughout miami, learn a shitload of stuff. See all the celebrity houses, the cemetary where michael jackson did the video for "thriller" etc...

Show you several famous houses & locations such as the CIA secret boat house used in the 60s 70s.

You stop at several places for pictures & food.

And then after the bus tour, they take you to the everglades for the airboat ride & narrated tour. Watching alligators in the wild is some scary shit. :bigthumb:

$$$ - Food is expensive as shit because we eat out a lot. Our bill is usually $80 per couple every time we eat.


Oh and last but not least, those $$ doesn't include the $200 I lost at the Seminole Hard Rock Casino :(

Good stuff. My office is just down the street from the Hard Rock. We could have lost money together. Glad you had a good time.

We had a full boat, but it was fun hanging out with all the girls there. A few of us even went to the free sunset tour afterwards.
