I can't even explain how high energy and engaging the staff was. Wowza! The Captain even jumped into one of the pics with our group! He was a dancing machine and had the cutest names for some of the dolphins like Finn-daya (omg that euphoria finale!!!) and Finn Diesel. I believe the Captain's name was Daniel and he was just amazing!!! This was one of the only charters we could find that allowed us bringing a cooler full of drinks on which was also a huge plus for our group. Everything was so well organized from start to finish, we were so happy with everything and saw SO many dolphins on our evening cruise. Absolutely so highly recommended for singles, couples, groups and everyone when in Destin!!!! I tipped the guys $20 after as every individual did! They worked it.

I definitely got nervous when I saw the crowds of people that kept moving into the waiting area, but it all worked out and honestly not a bad seat on the boat.

From the moment we stepped on the boat, Captain Brad made us feel welcome and ensured we had an incredible day on the water. He was friendly, professional, and fun! We never felt rushed and were able to relax, swim, float, and enjoy the beautiful emerald water at our own pace. Brad made the entire experience easy and stress-free, taking care of everything so we could simply enjoy the day. His local knowledge, laid-back personality, and attention to detail made the trip even better than we expected. Whether you're visiting Destin for the first time or you've been before, a day on the water with Captain Brad is an absolute must. We couldn't have asked for a better captain or a more fun day. Highly recommend booking with Champagne Charters - we'll definitely be back the next time we're in Destin!

My brother in law and I went out yesterday, and Captain Nick took great care of us. We were…read moreoriginally scheduled to depart at 4:00 pm, but due to a no show/no call (who does that?!) by a charter scheduled for earlier in the day, we were contacted to see if we wanted to go out earlier. Given the forecast of storms later in the day, we headed toward the marina within minutes. While on the way to the marina, Captain Nick called to make sure we were aware of the less than ideal conditions and to advise us that he'd do everything he could to make sure we got out and caught some fish as long as it was safe to do so. He knew we were making about an hour drive in traffic to get there, so I appreciated him calling to make sure we knew what to expect. We were greeted upon arrival and on our way out shortly thereafter. We had some rough waters with storms hugging the coast and what became a tropical storm the next day rolling in, but Captain Nick made sure we stayed as comfortable and dry as possible on our way out to some fishing spots. We made several stops and had bites just about every time we dropped a line. Captain Nick did a great job of explaining and demonstrating the technique for each type of fish, and he showed great patience with a couple midwesterners accustomed to setting hooks while bass fishing. We lost a number of fish (likely due to midwesterner operator error), but came in with 3 red snapper, 4 Mahi, and a white snapper. We also pulled in several other red snapper and a gag grouper which were put back because they didn't meet size limitations. It seems we didn't catch what other O Sea D charters had as of late, but I attribute that to weather conditions and in no way fault Captain Nick - he knows his stuff and his spots, as we had action nearly all of the time we were fishing. As the wind would push us away from the hot spots we'd pull up our bait, and he'd put us right back on top of the fish. Once the trip ended we headed back to the marina, and Captain Nick set us up for some pictures with our haul then cleaned everything for us to take home and eat. We had a cooler but not enough ice, and Captain Nick was gracious enough to load us back up with ice for the trip home. We had quite the feast that night, (some grilled and some fried) and all of it pulled from the gulf no more than 6 hours before we ate it! Within a couple hours after our charter ended, Captain Jeff (the owner) followed up with me to make sure we had a good time despite the tough conditions. He also sent me a photo Captain Nick had taken of us with our catch. Long story short, these guys are top notch in knowledge and customer service. We will be back for sure, and can't wait to bring others with us next time!

Jeff was super detail oriented and answered all of our questions about fishing on the ride out to his favorite fishing spots. We immediately started catching big red snappers!

Thanks for a great trip, we will definitely be returning for a trip with Captain Jeff! 5 stars!

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.
