Chad, our senior catamaran mate, said it best Monday night aboard the Commotion, Fury’s official Key West Sunset Sail with Live Music, “In Key West, we are spoiled when it comes to live music.” It’s true, so many bars and restaurants are filled with the sounds of musicians day and night. (more…)
Fireworks out at sea.

This summer has certainly chugged along at a quick speed. It’s hard to believe that this weekend is the Fourth of July! At Fury, we’re definitely gearing up for a busy and festive weekend.
As usual, our docks will be humming with parasailing every hour, snorkel trips, the Ultimate Adventure, and sunset sails. But Sunday night, we’ve got one additional trip in the lineup. What better place to view a spectacular firework display than on the water? (more…)
Ryan and Ashleigh and their first dance.
by Shayne Benowitz
It was a decidedly balmy evening as former Fury check-in dude Ryan Schmedeman wed Ashleigh Cline (parasail mate Justin’s sister) at the idyllic Southernmost House. The intimate ceremony was conducted with the placid waters of the Atlantic as the backdrop. Parasail mate Stephen was amongst the groomsmen in handsome tan suits and the bridesmaids looked pretty in mint green confections. (more…)

Fury Girl testing out the new inflatable.
by Shayne Benowitz
If you’re one of our loyal customers who simply must rock the Ultimate Adventure every time you come to town, you’ll notice a few new elements on your next trip. Most notably, we’ve got a brand new inflatable toy that’s all the rage. Of course, the classic iceberg rock-climbing wall and water trampoline are still there.

It was another classic Fury concert party under the stars Friday night when Stephen Marley took the stage at Ocean Key House’s Sunset Pier. The bar aboard the Caribbean Fury was fully stocked, pizza was abundant, and the crew was ready to let loose to the sweet sounds of reggae music. (more…)
The new facade at la Creperie.
by Shayne Benowitz
There’s been something missing in my life over the past year. For breakfast, I’ve grabbed a fruit parfait and coffee with coconut milk from Help Yourself or a bagel and cappuccino from the Coffee Plantation. Bad Boy Burrito and Cole’z Peace have been there for lunchtime deliveries. Upper Crust Pizza, The Café, and the occasional Chinese takeout have fed me dinner. But… I haven’t had my crepes!
