Can't wait to book again! - We had the best time! Jessie and Izzy were amazing! We saw dolphins and crab island was relaxing and our kiddos had a blast. We only had 6 people on our boat so it basically was a private tour! We will be booking this excursion every time we come back to Destin for sure!

Awesome Experience at the crab island - We had an amazing time on the 3-hour Crab Island tour… Captain Jessie and Cole were incredibly friendly, accommodating, and made sure everyone had a great experience. The boat was spotless, and the extra touches like floaters and the paddleboard made the trip even more fun. It was the perfect way to relax, enjoy the water, and take in the beautiful surroundings. The kids had a blast!! Highly recommend this tour!

Worth the money! - Very fun and accommodating hosts. A little cool and extra windy conditions, but that was no fault of the charter. Would love to do it again!

Terrible Experience – Not Worth It! - I had an absolutely horrible time on this 3-Hour Crab Island and Harbor Tour from Destin. First off, the captain seemed either completely careless or dishonest. I asked for a snorkeling kit, and he handed me a broken one. Just a few minutes later, another passenger asked, and he gave them a full, perfectly working kit. When I asked why I wasn't given that one, he casually brushed it off, claiming they must have brought it from home. It was beyond frustrating. To make things worse, there was a clear 'no smoking' sign on board, but the captain did nothing to stop a person who smoked the entire trip. It made the experience even more uncomfortable. Overall, it felt like the captain couldn’t care less about the passengers. I would not recommend this tour to anyone – a total waste of time and money!"
