Description

After three sun-soaked weeks exploring the Florida Keys, Chris and the crew are back in Cincinnati—but not before making memories in Marathon and Islamorada. In this episode, we dive into the highs (and hilarious mishaps) of DIY scuba diving at Sombrero Reef, recount the best mini-golf course we've ever played, and share the story behind our accidental “Lost Buoy Dive Club.”

We talk about the charm of Plantation Harbor Marina, our new paddleboard adventures, snorkeling with sea turtles, and eating our weight in tuna nachos at Marker 88. There's even a surprise iguana cameo and a spontaneous swim (unplanned, of course) by the captain himself.

Plus, we preview what’s next on our Loop journey—from Key Largo to Fort Lauderdale—as we chase clear water, great reefs, and smoother sailing.
