Excellent. Great service. - Chace (owner) and Colton (our captain for the day) made our day of boating, swimming and relaxation so much fun. They were extremely easy-going and accommodated our family with two kids. We had so much fun that we also extended our day an additional two hours. I would highly recommend Saint Pete boat rentals and their captains. They definitely know the areas and can advise you well along with well experienced captains. Also, his rates were also very competitive and fair.

Book. The. Boat. 🤩 - This was a WONDERFUL experience! We’ve done the 2 hour dolphin tours to Shell Key and they were great but SO SHORT. I priced renting our own boat for the entire day (7 hours) and it was barely more than the 2 hour tour where you get about 30 mins to hunt shells. The pontoon was very comfortable, plenty of room for the 6 of us, and best of all we were on our own schedule and could boat where we wanted for as long as we wanted. Chase was wonderful to work with. Everything was ready to go right on time, and he stayed in contact in case we had questions. EXCELLENT EXPERIENCE Highly recommend!!!!!!

Best boat rental I have experienced - Fantastic experience, Chace was fantastic and boat was great. I was extremely impressed with the way that the kids helped us plan our day as well as how the boat was set up. Boat had bluetooth radios, usb charging ports, Garmin GPS unit etc. Will never use anyone else after this experience.

Great Memories to Shell Key - We rented a pontoon boat from here, the owner was super helpful and made this trip a success! It was very easy. Thankful my partner is an experienced boater- we traveled to Shell Key for part of the day, with the kids and parents. We found beautiful shells and sand dollars (already dead of course). Water was clear and perfect to hang out in. Thank you!

Absolutely terrible - Do not go anywhere close to this guy he will lie cheat and steal every dollar out of your pocket we had a boat planned he called and said too windy which is fine safety is first... But the next day he called and said he had a boat go down mechanical issue... I know your next question is I thought no boats could go out the previous day? Lol stay away had to message him multiple times to get my refund he kept telling me to have a good trip home....
