Looking for Marathon's water sports center? Since the 1950's Capt. Hook's has been the place to go for anything you need for a day on the water. Fishing, diving, snorkeling, back country and offshore charters, bait, tackle, free advice - we do it all. Oceanside at the Vaca Cut bridge, Capt. Hook's is minutes from Marathon's fabulous reef and just as close to the great wreck and flats fishing of the Gulf. Book a charter at Capt. Hook's or come by for advice - we love to talk and visit.

Owners Kathi and Rich have been a part of the Key West and Florida Keys diving community for many years and have firmly established themselves as one of the top dive operators in the Keys. Coming from a combined corporate (Rich) and retail (Kathi) background, Kathi and Rich know how to plan the details of your dive trips or fishing charters for maximum fun and enjoyment.

Located at the Vaca Cut, Capt. Hook's has immediate access to the best dive sites on the reef and fishing spots in the bay or offshore. No long boat rides around the island, our location provides for a shorter boat ride and a longer dive.

Kathi and Rich have gathered a staff famous for their friendliness, knowledge and experience. With the addition of Keys Veteran Capt. Tim, who joins Capt. Rich and Capt. Dave, whether diving or snorkeling you know you will be on a prime spot on the reef. When you come to Capt. Hook's we are sure you'll have fun. Our custom boats go to the reef twice a day. Both boats have fresh water showers, heads and long ladders for those of us who are horizontally challenged. Capt. Hook's is a PADI 5 STAR CENTER. We specialize in small groups so you get personal attention and are never rushed. Come dive where you know you will be taken care of.
