2 Hour Trip – Sunset Cruise on April 16, 20264 adults
Four of us met Captain Hibbs for a sunset cruise. His boat is new, clean and comfortable. Captain Hibbs took us on a tour around the keys, pointing out important information and answering all of our questions. We stopped at a clear viewing point to watch the sunset. It was perfect and we all had a wonderful time. Would definitely recommend.

Fantastic sunset cruise
2 Hour Trip – Sunset Cruise on March 31, 20265 adults
Captain Jeff was a pro. The weather looked not so promising for our originally scheduled sunset cruise, and he texted me to figure out an alternative. We switched days of the trip without a hitch, and had a blast. It was exactly what we were looking for on our trip to Siesta Key.

2 Hour Sandbar - Cruise - Dolphin on March 26, 20264 adults
We had a very enjoyable cruise today. Did not know anything about "Get Salty Charters" before booking. We were all (4) of us very happy with the pontoon boat and the captain Cameron. Two hours on the water was more than enough time to enjoy a very pleasant cruise with a knowledgeable captain who is a native to the area. We definitely will book again with "Get Salty Charters". Thank you.

2 Hour Sandbar - Cruise - Dolphin on March 16, 20262 adults
Had a great time on the water with Get Salty. The captain was very kind, informative and was very sweet to our two year-old boy. We enjoyed cruising and stopping at a small sandbar. The captain picked up and pointed out multiple sea creatures to show our son which was definitely a highlight of his day. Would highly recommend if you’re in the area and looking to get your family out on the water.
