African Queen Canal Cruise & Calypso Watersports & Charters
The iconic African Queen is located in Key Largo, Florida. Made famous in the 1951 movie of the same name starring Humphrey Bogart and Katherine Hepburn, she still remains a timeless classic. This famous steamboat is available for daily canal cruises and dinner cruises in the Port Largo Canal area and also for private events.
Originally built in 1912 to shuttle cargo, missionaries and hunting parties across the Victoria Nile and Lake Albert, in 1951 the African Queen starred in the famous movie directed by John Huston. Afterwards she remained in service in Africa until 1968 when she was brought to the United States and worked in San Francisco, Oregon and Florida. She has been the pride and joy of Key Largo since 1982, where she is registered as a National Historic site and in 2012 celebrated her centennial year.
