Super grateful Tyler was able to accommodate our last minute request/booking. Tyler was knowledgeable about the area and brought us to a beautiful sand bar. We even saw dolphins! Can’t wait to go back to st Pete and book again!

Captain Tyler was very friendly and welcoming. He found a lot of dolphins and got them to follow in the wake of the boat. The boat itself was beautiful and very comfortable. Our two boys had a great time tubing. It was a wonderful experience that we hope to repeat soon.

We were visiting family in the area and wanted to see a sunset and learn a little bit more about the area. Captain Tyler was extremely knowledgeable and very accommodating to us traveling with a 2 year old. The bird sanctuary stop was sooo amazing!

The entire trip was fun! Captain Tyler is personable and listened to what we wanted. The boat was clean and had more than enough space for a family of 5. Before the trip I made a couple of calls and he responded quickly
