    “Amazing Crab Island Adventure with Captain John!”

    4 Hr – Crab Island (PM) • 4 adults

    We had an amazing time on our boat ride to Crab Island! Captain John was friendly, helpful, and made the whole experience fun. We enjoyed snorkeling with the provided equipment, floating tubes, and paddle boards. Captain John also shared interesting history about Destin and the area along the way. A fun and memorable experience—highly recommend!

    Best trip ever ❤️

    Sunset Crab Island Dolphin Tour • 4 adults • 1 child

    I recommend it to everyone. It was incredible. The captain was great, 👍🏻 he showed us places where it was beautiful. We enjoyed our vacation and the child was delighted. We caught a blue crab, there were many different fish. There were also many dolphins circling around us. Just try it and you won't regret it👌🏻❤️❤️❤️

    Boat Day with Captian John

    Captian John was absolutely amazing! Communication was spot on and he was very responsive and flexible in working with our schedule. We had so much fun on the boat from snorkeling to seeing dolphins to playing volleyball. John really made the day special from start to finish. 5/5!

    great family experience!

    3 Hr – Destin Advendture (AM) • 5 adults • 3 children

    We had an amazing day on the boat with Captain John! Kids had fun snorkeling, dolphin watching, and playing on the raft at Crab Island. John was extremely nice and very knowledgeable of the area. He made sure to taylor our trip that was the best experience for our family. We would highly recommend Captain John if you’re looking to tour the area and do all the activities without sitting on an overcrowded boat.
