We had a wonderful time with Justin and Patrick who were our hosts. They provided us anything we asked for very graciously

The captain and crew were amazing. Music was festive and it was a party. It was nice not having to drive the boat.

Even though the weather didn’t cooperate as well as we would have liked. The trip was such a great time and the captain was absolutely amazing, energetic, very knowledgeable and a blast of fun. This is highly recommended and we will most definitely do it again.

This was my first time going to Crab Island, and I am so happy I chose SunVenture Cruises. The captain and his crew member were professional, courteous, and fun! I met a couple who said it was their fifth time coming to Crab Island, and they take this same charter every time because they appreciate the experience provided by SunVenture. The crew will help with whatever you need, like taking pictures, handing you things while you’re in the water, answering questions, etc. There is a long, flat floatation device that can fit many people if they want to get out of the water and sun themselves. Bring a cooler with food and drinks, but you can also buy food and non-alcoholic beverages from different vendors around the island. Also bring your sunscreen! I will definitely do this again, and I will book SunVenture Cruises when I do.

Fun time on crab island! Captain and his crew were great and accommodated us while we were in the water. If we needed a picture or food boats to come by, they were there to help.
