My mom, sister and I had such fun with JB charters. We did the 3 hour shelling and dolphin tour. we saw a few dolphins and even manatees but the best part was going to little Saint George Island to swim around and collect as many seashells as we could carry! Captin John was very professional and knowledgeable about the area. We would definitely book with him again.

Thank you all again, so glad you all had a great time and hope to get to see you all again.
