We had so much fun on this excursion! We were on a bachelorette party of eight people and we had the best time. Our captain Jayden was fantastic. The instructions were super clear on what to bring, where to park, etc. and the communication was great. I would absolutely recommend this experience!

Our captain was Jayden and he was THE best!!!! The sun wasn’t out but we made the best of it during low season. We ate some fish tacos from the floating vendor and they were also 10/10. I held a jelly fish and we thoroughly enjoyed our day! We would rent again if we came back to Destin.

That the fee that was charged for the boat does not include a mandatory captain's fee, and the amount was not disclosed until the day of the event.

The private crab island pontoon experience was a blast! I cannot say enough great things about Captain Cody! We had three boys, ages 9-15, and he was able to capture their attention and keep it by showing them various sea life; he even was able to catch a blue crab and let the boys hold it! The floating mat and paddle boards were a nice addition, but the best was the double decker slides! It was a fun way to relax, play in the water and get a pontoon boat ride!

Aedan was our captain and he took such good care of us! He definitely made our time at crab island an easy and fun experience. Our pontoon selection lived up to expectations and so did the experience!

Aedan was the best captain and made sure our family had everything we needed to have a great time. I couldn’t recommend this company enough! We had 2 teens, 4 adults and 3 babies under 3 and we all had the greatest time. Thank you again!

We had Jayden as our captain, and we were here for a bachelor trip. We had a great time! Jayden took care of us and was very chill the entire tour. Crab island was a little crowded, but not too crowded to not enjoy everything that was offered. We would absolutely go again.
