We had such a fun time! Larry’s communication was great and he ensured we all had a fun time (there were 5 of us including 4 kids aged 12-18). He picked us up at our Airbnb since we had a dock and canal access and while navigating through the channel saw a manatee and her baby! Larry had noticed them on the way in so stopped to turned off the motor if we could see them.
It was too windy to go the the reef but were able to snorkel at the sandbar. We got there shortly after 9AM and were the only ones there for a while which made it even more special!
We used the rest of our time cruising around to sight see. It was very hot and the splashing water felt incredible. The kids did go in the shade some to cool off and the boat was a perfect size allowing for a comfortable area to lounge in the full sun or shade. Larry also had ice in coolers for our drinks and snacks which was very convenient and made our time on the boat very comfortable.
Lastly Larry took some footage on his go pro and sent us a highlights reel just before dropping us off which is a great way to reflect back on such a fun experience!
If you’re looking for a fun, safe and comfortable boating experience we highly recommend Larry!

We got to spend the day exactly how we wanted. We went to Molasses Key, found some star fish, and our husbands smoked some cigars while we waded in the water. We then went to the old lighthouse where the water was much warmer and we got to snorkel in a school of fish. Larry provided us with snorkel gear and noodles. Thanks Larry!

If you’re not Living Like Larry, you’re doing it wrong! We booked a half-day private charter and honestly didn’t want to get off the boat. Larry took care of everything — us, our kid, and even our dog (who now thinks Larry is his new best friend). He was so patient, fun, and accommodating the whole time. It felt less like a tour and more like hanging out with a friend who happens to have an awesome boat. 10/10 would live like Larry again!

My mom, sister and I booked Larry for a four hour trip and we all wished we had done eight! He tailored the trip to whatever we wanted to do. We started snorkeling at lighthouse and then went to a sandbar for the rest of the trip. He was so kind and accommodating, we will definitely go out with him again when we are in the area and have been raving about the experience to all of our friends and family. You will not regret a day spent on the water with Larry!!!

“Captain Larry gave us an unforgettable experience! He was incredibly friendly, courteous, and accommodating from start to finish. The cruise through the canals was peaceful and scenic, and heading out to the Molasses Key sandbar was the highlight of our trip. The boat was comfortable, and Captain Larry’s expertise made us feel safe and completely at ease. We had such a great time—we’ll definitely be booking with him again!”
