5.00Our family - grandparents, son and 4-year-old granddaughter - had an absolutely fantastic trip with Captain Remi! From start to finish, the day was pure magic. We spotted dolphins and manatees up close, spent time shelling and building sandcastles on Three Rooker Island, and enjoyed picture‑perfect weather the entire way. Special kudos to Captain Remi—friendly, knowledgeable, and competent. He was flexible and made the whole experience feel effortless and fun, and his easygoing energy set the tone for a perfect day on the water. We enjoyed it so much and would book with him again in a heartbeat. Highly recommend!

5.00Great tour! Capt Remy was so much fun and made our trip so memorable. He was devoted to getting us some good dolphin sightings and shared a lot of cool info about the area. He knocked it out of the park!!
