Dive or Snorkel the Emerald Lagoon

Tour the tropical mangrove habitat of Key Largo Undersea Park's Emerald Lagoon and explore the underwater world of the future. You will find a marine archaeology exhibit, the MarineLab underwater research and education habitat, and Jules' Undersea Lodge, the first and only underwater hotel in the world.

Jules' Undersea Lodge (formerly La Chalupa Research Lab) also served as the site of the historic 1995 sea-space link-up in which ocean pioneers Scott Carpenter and Ian Koblick spoke with astronaut Mike Gernhardt aboard the space shuttle Endeavour. Both Jules' Undersea Lodge and the MarineLab have been used in research on extended space travel.
 

 
Key Largo Underwater Park offers dressing rooms, hot showers, equipment rinse areas, seating and staging areas for divers and dive groups.
