Key West Scuba Diving in January

January is comfortable for Key West scuba diving. Air temps are pleasant and surface water temperatures rarely drop below 74°F. Visibility is mostly good to very good, and except for the shortened daylight hours (~10.5 hours), dive conditions are generally favorable. Expect rough seas when cold fronts move through, then warming and calming trends between fronts.

January Weather Outlook
January is the coldest month of the year in Key West, but daily highs still average around 74°F and rarely go below 66°F. Skies are clear or partly cloudy 70% of the time. Precipitation chances are about 15% to 13%, with monthly rainfall averaging 1.5 inches. Winds average 13.7 miles per hour out of the east.

January Marine Life
In the Atlantic, shoreward shifts of the Gulf Stream and baitfish movements induced by cooling water bring large pelagics including Sailfish, Wahoo, and Cero Mackerel in near the outer reef edge. Sharks, Kingfish, and large schools of Permit may be encountered over the Gulf wrecks.

Activity name

Key West Scuba Diving wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That's why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.

On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You'll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.

If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Key West Scuba Diving over a 12-month period.

The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
