Wonderful Private Boat Tour - It was easy to find the marina just north of the Clearwater causeway and parking was easy, although you do pay. We were able to avoid the craziness of trying to find parking on Clearwater beach area. Captain Ryan reached out by text so we knew where to find him. Captain Ryan was excellent and provided the perfect vibe for the laid back boat excursion we were looking for. A wonderful day of memories so a big Thank you to Captain Ryan!!!!

Pontoon for 6 - Captain Ryan was great. The pontoon was perfect for 6 people. The water was calm at first, and then got a little rough, but the boat handled it well.

Fun family friendly relaxed trip away from crowds - Great trip for families ! Captain Ryan was very relaxed, great with kids and accommodating ! Gave us a heads up in advance to bring sweatshirts which is good because it was a little chilly with the wind in the morning ! Great stops at each of the beaches which were quiet, beautiful and family friendly and even got to see some dolphins en route!

10/10 highly recommend! - Captain Ryan made our private boat tour unforgettable. We had so much fun on our first tour that we booked another tour with him on our last day of vacation. This trip is perfect for families, our sons (5) and (7) can’t stop talking about it. Highly recommend if you want to avoid crowds and spend quality time with your family in a safe and relaxing environment. Can’t wait to do it again the next time we visit Clearwater!

Captain Ryan was awesome!... - Captain Ryan was awesome! Very knowledgeable, sociable, patient and accommodating! One of my daughters REALLY wanted to see some dolphins and he found her several groups of dolphins, all super close to the boat! 100% recommended! We would do this daily if we were able!

Fantastic time. - They took us to multiple islands where we could go for a stroll and search for shells. My family had a great time! On our way back the captain took us around the bay and told us some facts about the surrounding area. A++ experience. We will book this experience again when it gets warmer.

Amazing trip worth every penny - Captain Jordan was amazing. We took a private boat ride and everything was perfect. Captain Jordan was so knowledgable and full of facts about the area and wildlife. He took us to two great locations and we found so many shells. We saw dolphins and a sting ray. Highly recommend.
