At least, that's what they told us at first because a larger group booked an earlier time and they could not accommodate both. Terribly disorganized and unapologetic.

Being from out of town, Alex gave a quick tutorial on the bay, sailing boundaries and areas to avoid, from leaving the dock, radio check and arrival back, these guys were great. Boat was in perfect shape and we had an amazing time. The staff was really good with the kids. Will be back here for sure. They also have Hobie wave available which is smaller than the getaway and has only a main sail (no jib). I found the prices to be more than fair.

However, Captain Mike said something very disrespectful, rude and unprofessional. He should always be aware of who is listening. He made a reference to black people being late. The funny thing about that was another family pulled up after my family did and he didn't comment about that. I would've rated a 4 not a 5 only because no keepers but I now rate a 3 instead of 4 because I didn't feel as comfortable as I should have on a boat with a Captain with those types of views.

We…read morecalled mighty heron, but they weren't available the next day, Kim offered a recommendation of someone who might be able to. On that factor alone, we decided to move our date to the next day when they were available. Captain Mike watched the weather forecast closely and said he would make the call the afternoon before our trip. Based on all the data and his experience, he felt it would be a good trip. We met Captain Mike and his 1st mate, Andrew at 7 AM and we headed out for Seabass. They treated my wife and I with a great deal of respect and great friendly conversations. The waves were a little closer together than forecasted. Which made for a very rough ride. We arrived at our fishing spot and drop the lines for a short bit. Mike closely monitored the radio and made the wise decision to pull the lines up and head in as the reports were that the winds and waves were coming in much sooner than predicted. We were able to see some humpback whales blowing, and even a US Coast Guard helicopter training Mission. We really enjoyed ourselves in spite of the waves and me "feeding the fish" a couple of times. When we returned to dock, Captain Mike was clearly disappointed and graciously offered to adjust our rate since we weren't out there the full time. Absolutely no doubt that we would book with them again in the future.

My friend and I went on the 4-hour afternoon fishing trip yesterday after finding a deal on…read moreGroupon, and I had such a great time. This was my very first fishing charter, so I was really excited for some deep-sea fishing--and Starfish Boats definitely lived up to the reviews I had read beforehand. The mate, Anthony, was the star of the show. He works for tips, and you should absolutely tip him because he is your best friend out there. From the moment we got on the boat, he was helping with everything--setting up the poles, putting the bait on for the first cast, walking around checking in on everyone, and jumping in whenever someone needed help. He made the whole experience so much easier and way more fun. At one point, I hooked something really big--probably a shark--but my rod couldn't handle it. Anthony quickly cut the line, set me up with a new pole, and got me right back to fishing. I ended up catching a little baby bluefish. My friend didn't catch anything this time, but plenty of people around us were reeling things in: bluefish, flounder, and even baby sharks. So you're definitely going to catch something out here! The trip itself was well-organized: about an hour ride out to the fishing spot, then we moved three or four times to drop lines before the hour ride back, giving us roughly two solid hours of fishing. Everything ran smoothly. The only downside for me was the number of people on the boat and some kids running around who clearly weren't into fishing--it got a little distracting. But I get it, families want to bring their kids along for the experience. Next time I might try a trip with fewer people for a quieter vibe. Overall, I give Starfish Boats five stars. Great crew, well-run trip, and an awesome first experience with a fishing charter. I'd definitely go out with them again.

The DJ was playing patriotic music throughout the fireworks. They were giving out free pretzels and sodas were free as well. Everyone was very friendly and we really enjoyed the few hours we were out on the boat. Would definitely take another trip with this company in the future.
