A, Between 1983 to 1988, Caribbean Watersports was located at MM 104, next to the Caribbean Club. In 1989, the Sheraton Key Largo became our new home at MM 97. The hotel since then has changed names to the Westin Beach Resort Key Largo, then a few years later to the Sheraton Beach Resort Key Largo, all under the Starwood group. April 15, 2008 the hotel operated as the Key Largo Grande Resort and Beach Club, A Hilton Resort, under the LXR Luxury Resorts group, a division of Blackstone. Blackstone also became the owners of Hilton Resorts. April 1, 2012, it was named: Hilton Key Largo Resort. In Feb, 2015 a California company, KHP, purchased it and started renovations in Feb. 2017 for several months, only to fall to Hurricane Irma Sept 10, 2017 and has remained closed throughout all of 2018.

Fortunately for CWS, in Sept, 2016, we had opened a second location at the new 178 room 5 Star Playa Largo Resort and Spa, Autograph Collections by JR Marriott just .4 miles north, 97450 Overseas Highway; Key Largo on the same bay, where we are still today and operating only there today.

CWS offers many venues for Private Charters of Watersports at nearby Resorts with our 24 passenger Carolina Moon sailing catamaran, our Parasailing boat, Enviro-Tours, Private Snorkeling Tours with our Caribbean Cruiser. We have 4 Hobie Cats that have helped groups to ‘Learn the Hobie Sailing Way’, too.

We have also operated all the watersports, including a PADI 5 Star Dive Center at Cheeca Lodge from 1996 to 2001. Over the years we have provided professional watersports services as far north as Key Biscayne to Ocean Reef Club to Hawks Cay. Other family members businesses included the watersports at Holiday Isle, Snappers, Howard Johnson’s and the Quay in Key Largo, Rickenbacker Causeway in Miami and at Hilton Head, South Carolina under H2Osports.
