Capt. Ron's Awesome Everglades Adventures

If you're looking for ADVENTURE, you found the right place! I have been guiding waverunner adventures for over 32 years and in my spare time I volunteer as a first responder for hurricane SAR with my waverunners and airboat and have worked Katrina, Harvey, Irma, Florence and Michael . I invented the 1 hour waverunner tour in 1987 and eventually turned that into a 3 hour adventure! I always use new model and state-of-the art skis equipped with BRAKES and electronic shifting and Capt Ron's is the ONLY waverunner adventure that employs an underwater microphone so guests can actually here dolphin speaking underwater. I carry a full EMT medical kit including an AED device and am certified in CPR and First Aid. All adventures cover at least 35 miles and up to 50 miles and are covered by a 100% satisfaction guarantee. I know there are cheap tours available but they pale in comparison to a Capt Ron's adventure. If you want a real Waverunner adventure look no further!

Scuba Marco

The vision for Scuba Marco came to Capt. Jeff while he was underwater at Marco Island’s Five Mile Reef. Dive conditions were perfect that day and in the middle of a beautiful, tranquilizing dive he had the thought, “I could bring divers out here, share this aquatic beauty and give them a great experience.” Tucked away at the North end of Marco Island is our quiet little dive shop with a true, old-fashioned "mom & pop" vibe. As a PADI 5 Star Resort, we've been selling FUN in Southwest Florida since 1998 and have well over 30 years of diving instruction experience. Stop by & say hello - we're always happy to meet new people and help divers discover the joy and wonder of being underwater!
