25+ reviews
I have held a US Coast Guard captains license since 2009. However, I have spent over 50 years on the waterways in the Orange Beach area. I am an avid outdoor enthusiast. I am an accomplished birder, fisherman and charter cruise captain. I hold a Master Mariner 100 ton license. I offer private charters on my personal cruiser. I enjoy interacting with people as they come to the coast to experience this wonderful environment. I have served as a charter captain since 2014.

    Perfect Addition to Our Girls Trip

    Bay Sightseeing Tour (PM) • 5 adults

    We could not have asked for a more hospitable, friendly, and generous captain! Captain Lynn went above and beyond to communicate expectations well in advance, kept us updated with questionable weather in the forecast, and offered to reschedule the cruise for the optimal experience. We ended up cruising at our planned time and it was by far the best part of our weekend. He offered information about the area, took group pictures, provided restaurant recommendations, and played excellent music. Beautiful boat. 5 stars!

    Response from Captain

    thank you, Kate for such a great review. I had a great time with you and the cruisers, I believe everyone had a great time. I know I did. y’all were fun to have a board. I hope we’re able to do this again at some point in the future.

    Wonderful 25th Anniversary Cruise!

    Dolphin and Nature Cruise (PM) • 2 adults

    We had an absolutely wonderful time with Best Time Cruises! The entire experience was relaxing, fun, and exceeded our expectations. A special thank you to Lynn, who truly went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. He made a point to find dolphins and it was such a memorable experience watching them swim and play alongside the boat with us! His knowledge, enthusiasm, and genuine care made the trip even more special. We highly recommend Best Time Cruises and can’t wait to cruise with them again:)

I hope to see you and your wife in the future take care thank you for booking with best time cruises. Captain Lynn

    Awesome day on the water.p

    Dolphin and Nature Cruise (AM) • 3 adults

    A 3 hour nature tour did not disappoint. Osprey with fledgling birds in the nests, herons and egrets, and of course, dolphin. We had a couple of female dolphin running and jumping in our wake with a baby dolphin darting along side. The cutwater was very comfortable with an air conditioned cabin, cold drinks and lots of laughs. Also learned a good bit about the channels, coast, and history around Cotton Bayou to Perdido Bay. Captain Lynn was generous with his time, and we had a super day.

    Response from Captain

    Best Day Ever

    Special Occaison Cruises • 6 adults

    Captain Lynn is one of the most personable, nicest people you will ever meet! We went on the dolphin cruise for my daughters 18th birthday and It was hands down one of the best days we have ever had. We saw so many dolphins, enjoyed the scenic boat ride and even went for a little swim! He even let our daughters drive the boat! I could not reccomend this cruise more! So much fun! 🐬🐬🐬

    Response from Captain

    hey Randy Thank you for the wonderful review. I enjoyed my time on board with you and your family. It really was a special day for your daughter‘s 18th birthday and in addition to the birthday celebration the dolphin showed up on time and played with us just as everyone had hoped they would.  I wish you and your family the best and I hope to see you again in the future in Orange Beach aboard Best Time Cruises.  Captain Lynn

    Great site seeing trip

    Dolphin and Nature Cruise (PM) • 5 adults • 1 child

    This was a great trip for our whole family, we were able to see dolphins the entire trip, some whithin 10 feet of the boat. Also, the boat was super clean, inside and out. I definitely recommend reserving a boat with an inside option in case it rains or is super hot. Captain Lynn was super friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating.
