This time around we were helped by Parker and Dalton who were both very experienced, knowledgeable, and relatable. Parker even gave us recommendations for food and local spots that tourists don't usually get to visit. The boat itself was clean, comfortable and highly functional, all for a reasonable price that was not shoved down our throats. I love this company and I will be returning ANY time I need to rent watersports equipment.

They made us pay for parking twice . We had a party of 20 and didn't tell us until after we payed that it was 14 person limit. it's like everyone is on crack. The guy at the front was asking us for weed. This place isn't friendly for people of color. They milked us for money. The people aren't even professional.

We showed up early to grab a drink at the bar before heading out, which was definitely the right move. Our captain, Bailey, was fantastic--super friendly, gave us a quick rundown of everything, and then we were off. We cruised around the area before heading out to Crab Island to catch the sunset and keep an eye out for dolphins. The whole experience was exactly what we needed--relaxing, fun, and just an all-around great vibe. Good drinks, great company, and an incredible sunset. After the sun went down, we cruised back to the dock, already talking about doing it again with another group. 5/5 experience--highly recommend! If you book, call and ask for Bailey. They also offer daytime trips to Crab Island if that's more your speed. Pro tip: Parking is limited, so consider taking an Uber or Lyft.

The staff was friendly and helpful with a map and recommendations on where and where not to go. Also, I found the pricing here to be the best among all the companies that I looked at in Destin.

The downside was the seagulls, the crew member who sells soda and chips feeds them chips and they are EVERYWHERE. It was distracting and excessive how many birds swarmed the boat for the first half of the trip. My opinion of the best place to sit is the top floor, starboard side. It will be rocky up there but you can easily shift to the other side of the boats if needed. Also bring a jacket! At least in January. Sadly there are multiple signs that say the crew work for tips insinuating that they are otherwise unpaid. I truly hope that is not the case.
