Captain Kevin was great at getting the dolphins to follow the boat! The shelling island was in the mangroves, and we found lots of basic shells. Then Captain Kevin showed us the homes around Port Royal. But, the highlight of the day was dolphins! Captain Kevin answered all of our questions. He's very knowledgeable and informative about Naples. We felt safe and had a great afternoon. read more

I couldn't recommend Day Star Charters of Naples more! My party and I had the best time out on the water with Captain Kevin. He was extremely kind and made sure we achieved everything we wanted out of the trip. He was very knowledgable about the area. We had the best time on the island finding shells, seeing dolphins, and all of the beautiful homes in the area. We are already looking forward to our next time going out with Day Star, and would highly recommend to anyone looking for a fun boating experience!! read more

We had an excellent time on a 2-hour boat ride/shelling experience on this awesome island. The individual who booked the trip, Rachael, was very nice, helpful and patient with all of our questions. Kevin gave us a great ride and made sure we got really close to some dolphins. Price was very reasonable. Highly recommend. read more

Found Kevin via google and so glad I did. He took our family of 5 out for the best day of our 4 week vacation in Florida. Firstly booking was really straight forward and Kevin's wife was very helpful on the phone. Directions and meeting point was very stress free. Being from the UK this was much appreciated. We booked 2.5 hours. Shelling, private/secluded beach, dolphins and tour of local houses. The beach is the best I've been on, absolute amazing. Kevin not only showed us dolphins but had then following us. Highly recommend. read more

Kevin was a great captain- he took us places that other captains didn't know about. He was extremely knowledgeable and a great driver; never did we feel uncomfortable. A great experience all around! read more

This is a husband and wife charter fishing company. The company offers a very competitive fishing charter trip. $250 for three hours. Other companies asked for $350 for three hours. Or, the competitors charged for the number of persons fishing. The boat is clean and well maintained. The company provides the fishing reels, rods, and the bait. Captain Kevin drove the boat to three different fishing spots in the backwaters of Naples. One of us caught six fish and the other caught five fish. Captain Kevin cast the lines for us and knows before you do if you get a bite on the line from a fish. We wish Captain Kevin was a bit friendlier, but he was professional and knowledgable. read more

This was a good backwater fishing trip. We caught a lot of fish on a day when we probably shouldn't have due to record low temps and wind the two-days prior. We caught an average of five fish per person, highlighted by a snook and a 19" Pompono that was the largest of that type our guide had seen. The guide was a cool guy who was not overly talkative and just got us out fishing quickly. When we hit a dead spot he would take us elsewhere, which he had to several times due to the conditions. All in all a good trip. read more

My family has been going to Day Star charters for 8 years straight. He is very patient and knowledgeable about the area and where the fish are. This year we tried the 3 in 1 Combo. The Shell island was great, we saw 9 dolphins and had a blast. The time spending fishing was less than usual. Our average fish count over the past 7 years has been 25, but this year with the 3 in 1 combo we caught 5. A great time with a GREAT captain in Captain Kevin.. read more

Our Family chartered with Capt. Kevin and had the greatest time in all our 5 chartered trips at Naples, Florida. The Family caught so many fish off shore we gave up counting! All you do is follow Capt. Kevin's instructions he baits your hook, you drop to the bottom of the reef reel up quickly 3 times and you have fish on immediately! Once you get the technique down you've got fish on as many times as you can drop your line! What a dinner we ate that night! read more

Looking for a great, personal fishing expedition? then call Day Star Charters!! A great value for PRIVATE fishing! Captain Kevin is knowledgeable and will do his best to take you to the spots where the fish are (note: he can't help the weather conditions...only mother nature can!). Rachel took great care of us during the "cold snap" and got us out for the most enjoyable time possible. They are accomodating, friendly and a GREAT VALUE!! A must for anyone visiting Naples who is interested in fishing fun! read more

Took the backwater and deep sea charters. Had a great time on both. Kevin knew where the best spots were. We had children on the backwater trip and he was great with the kids. Caught a bunch of fish, saw a ton of wildlife, once we spotted some dolphin he knew the right speed to get them to ride the wake, the kids loved it. read more

Went out with Captain Kevin twice on our vacation and had a great time both trips. He knew the best fishing spots and we were even able to bring home some fish for dinner which he cut and packaged for us. We had children with us one day and Kevin baited their hooks and cast their lines for them. They had an absolutely wonderful time! We saw dolphins and even a manatee and caught grouper, snapper, and small sharks. We stayed in the bay when we were with the children and they caught some ladyfish and were so happy! His boat was clean and obviously well maintained. I would definitely recommend Day Star Charter and Capt Kevin to anyone! read more
