My absolute favorite thing we did during our 2 week vacation! Captain Chesney was awesome, she made our trip so much fun!! This was a nice relaxing trip around the bay, we got to see a dolphin with her baby along with many birds. Had such a great time enjoying our personal tiki bar play list and some adult beverages while we cruised. Will definitely do this again if we're ever in the area, highly recommended!!!

My wife and I had a wonderful evening with Will our captain. He was personable, knowledgeable and entertaining. We leisurely cruised the shorelines of downtown Sarasota, the beautiful waterfront homes of Sarasota, Siesta Key, Lido Key and the canals of Bird Key. We had a gorgeous unobstructed view of the sunset from Big Pass. It was a very peaceful evening and well worth the money. And our dog loved being on the water as much as we did! I would highly recommend this cruise.

We went in a half day boat tour with Justin and had a blast! The day before we talked a little about what we wanted to do, and he made some suggestions as well. My main interest was Big pass sandbar, which was awesome. Then he took us into Sarasota for lunch at a restaurant he recommended, and a tour of the harbor. We saw Edward Island, a small nature preserve. Overall this was a great experience, nice boat, great captain. Highly recommend!
