Your BOAT DAY starts with a safety briefing, then it's time to cast off! Your trip will typically take you north of Clearwater Beach to our beautiful barrier islands including Caladesi Island, Honeymoon Island and Three Rooker Sand Bar. Along the way it is very likely that we will see dolphins. We may also see manatees, sea turtles, rays, Ospreys, native birds or other local wildlife. As your BOAT DAY continues, it is common for guests to get off the boat and go swimming and snorkeling, or shelling and exploring on our beautiful islands. Afternoon and evening tours can include watching the sun set from the boat, over the Gulf of Mexico. All guests will enjoy a cooler with complimentary bottled water, Big Joe water floats and mesh shell bags.
Caladesi Island State Park
One of the few untouched islands along the Gulf Coast, Caladesi Island State Park is accessible only by boat, but is worth the extra effort.

If you’re lucky enough to get BJ as your host on a Clearwater boat tour, prepare for an unforgettable adventure. From the moment we stepped aboard, her warmth and energy set the tone for an incredible experience. She guided us to hidden gems, including a wild, shell-strewn island that felt like a private paradise. The dolphin sightings were pure magic—watching them surf in our boat’s wake felt like something out of a nature documentary. BJ made sure we never missed a moment, snapping candid photos of our family that we’ll treasure forever. Whether you’re in it for wildlife, island hopping, or simply soaking up Clearwater’s beauty, BJ’s expertise and hospitality elevate the journey.

Thank you for the amazing boat tour. Our family enjoyed learning about the area and admiring the beautiful sandy beaches, sand dollars, and dolphins. We definitely recommend boating with captain Randy.

On Wednesday, April 24,2024 we had Captain Jordan as our host. She greeted us with a warm smile and welcomed us onto the boat. We rented the 27 foot Four Winns Premium Deckboat. It was a new boat that was super comfortable with a very smooth ride. We had perfect weather for boating. As we set out for our 4-hour cruise Captain Jordan asked us if there was anything we wanted to do out on the water. We asked to see as much marine wildlife as possible and check out some of the islands. Captain Jordan did not disappoint. Within the first 30 minutes we saw Dolphins and Manatee’s. Captain Jordan made sure that we were able to get plenty of pictures while not interfering with these beautiful creatures. But that was only the start, we later saw Sand Dollars, Starfish and Sting Rays. Captain Jordan to took us to an amazing sand bar West of Honeymoon Island. We were able to go snorkeling in crystal clear water. With the help of Captain Jordan we located live Sand Dollars. Captain Jordan was our Marine Wildlife Expert who shared many facts about the Florida Marine Life. In addition, she explained the ever-shifting barrier islands. Later she took us to one of her favorite islands where we anchored and collected many exotic shells along the island shore. The bird life on these islands was equally incredible. We had the most incredible day on the water with Captain Jordan as a great host. We look forward to another day exploring the Florida Marine Life with Captain Jordan. Thanks for the wonderful experience!

Day tripped from Orlando and this was the best day of our vacation. Captain Randy had dolphins jumping behind our boat, we saw manatees, went shelling, and did some swimming. The kids got to experience everything they hoped on our boat day.

What an amazing day. Captain Randy took good care of us, keeping us out of the morning rain. He showed us great spots to find sand dollars, lightning welks and dolphins. Definitely recommend and will be coming back to to see him next year.
