Unfortunately the person who told you about boats/offshore reefs is pretty much right. However, there are many low priced options to get out to the reefs. At Bahia Honda State Park they run a small dive boat out to the reef every day (at 9 a.m., I think.... may be 10 and again later in the day) for $15 or $20 pp. Definitely a bargain and the snorkeling is excellent if its not too windy. In Key West, down near the marina at Schooner Wharf there is a small dive shop that does the same thing, every day. Same basic cost and the reef they go to is excellent. Longer boat ride though and if its too windy it might be a bit of a challenge to swim over to the reef from where they anchor but it is definitely worth it if the conditions are good. Bring your own gear if you have it because the rental stuff that is provided on these trips is marginal at best. At the very least, invest in a good waterproof snorkel!
