As we head back, we'll take the more western side of the Halifax River and stay close to the many small islands along the way where manatees often play

Great experience, Captain Eric was very knowledgeable of the area, and worked with a medical issue we had.

We celebrated my friend’s birthday by taking the dolphin & manatee cruise with Captain Eric. The boat is clean, luxury and comfortable. The Captain was knowledgeable about the area and shared details about northern Florida that was very interesting. Great snacks and drinks provided. He was our very own personal photographer see pics😊 . If you’re looking for a nice sail, great company and comfort, then Captain Eric should be your guide.

This was a wonderful, personal cruise down the intercoastal waterway. We saw the natural areas, some waterfront homes, some businesses, and wildlife. Our boat captain knew everything we could ask about and showed us homes that have been around since the earliest zoning permissions.

The cruise was exciting and Awesome! Captain Eric was extremely knowledgeable and friendly. He pointed out all the best sites, including a still operational draw bridge. He gave us an unforgettable experience. In fact, it was the highlight of our vacation. THANK YOU so much, Eric!

It was a fun-filled day with Captain Liebman, aka Eric. The ride was smooth, and the sights were breathtaking. We made a stop in Ponce Inlet and were able to relax in the water while admiring the views. It was an enjoyable day out, and I highly recommend it!

We went out for a trip on the Halifax River. It was a wonderful time with the captain providing many great points of interest. The boat is the perfect size. Spacious but small enough to give an intimate feel. Would highly recommend this.
