MUST DO in Destin!

We had an amazing time with our Captain Cameron. He is so personable and knowledgeable about the area. Crab Island was awesome. We enjoyed the shallow water, and people watching! Definitely recommend this tour!

Fun in the sun
IAFunSeeker, October 2026
Great way to enjoy the Gulf! Beautiful day in the water. Our captain Murray was great. We saw some dolphins on our way back to the dock which was a nice bonus. It is nice you can bring your own beverages to enjoy while floating. It was relaxing to be out there with nothing to do but relax and float. We were lucky to get beautiful weather.

Bachelor/Bachelorette Party
taramT3036VO, September 2026
Absolutely awesome! We booked over the phone with Mary and she set our group of 26 people up with two private tiki’s. We were having a bachelor bachelor party the day before my daughter‘s wedding… Everything was phenomenal! From the dock to Crab Island, everything was perfect! Our captains were fantastic and made our day so enjoyable! Would definitely book with them again!
