Best day on our vacation! - Man what an experience! Spencer and Izzy were just top tier as far as tour guides! They kept everything light hearted and fun! We got to have great conversation with them on the boat while everyone was in the water! We got a shift while out there and got to even pick up a jellyfish! Man what a kick ass day!

Fun in the Sun at Crab Island - Had a great time. Spencer & Izzy went above & beyond to ensure everyone had a good time. The water at Crab Island was so warm & crystal clear. There were paddle boards, Lilly Pads, snorkeling gear to enjoy and even a football to toss around. There were vendors selling different things & we got fresh cut fruit which was nice to enjoy on the boat. Our family enjoyed our trip.

Great time for family! - We had such a great time on our tour. The water was perfect, although there were quite a few jellyfish. We took lots of great photos, and enjoyed the paddle boards and provided equipment. Our guides, Spencer and Caleb were tons of fun and knowledgeable about the area and marine life. They were enthusiastic and were completely in tune with the needs of our group. I would definitely recommend this company for your family excursion to crab island!

Spencer and Izzy - Spencer and Izzy were great hosts. The music was perfect. So many Jellyfish but Spencer took us to a location right off to the side of Crab Island. We were able to get out and enjoy the Sandbar and beautiful water. Great conversation and time!
