The captain

Third-generation Conch, licensed since 2013

Capt. Jordan “Jojo” Cisneros grew up fishing and diving the Lower Keys, earned her captain's license in 2013, ran offshore boats in the US Virgin Islands and came home to run her own. She is one of the few women running a charter boat out of Key West.

The boat is a 26-foot Twin Vee catamaran with twin 175s, a private head and Yeti coolers. Every trip is private; prices cover four guests and the booking page adds a fifth or sixth.

The one nobody else runs

Pull a stone crab trap

Stone crab season runs October 15 to May 1, and Conch Queen runs a four-hour trip where you pull and reset traps with a captain who grew up doing it. October and December dates are on the calendar; the price shows on the booking page for the date you pick.

The other trip nobody else lists: a four-hour lobster dinner adventure, seasonal, currently without open dates.
