Super fun morning on the water!

4 Hour – Boating Adventure (AM)5 adults1 child

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!

    Amazing day out on the water!

    4 Hour – Boating Adventure (PM) • 4 adults

    Captain Larry was an awesome host ,he took my family to a really cool sandbar. and then I wanted to look for manatees and dolphins. unfortunately we didn't find any but he drove us around and showed us all these little coves and a really cool community on the water .He gave us great recommendations for dinner, we took him up on one ,where I did finally get to see my manatee! He was the best.So much fun!!!!

    Lots of fun!

    4 Hour – Boating Adventure (PM) • 5 adults • 3 children

    Our family of 5 did a 4 hour afternoon charter with Larry. We wanted to do some snorkeling and spend time at the sandbar. Despite the weather having other plans, Larry gave us the best charter possible! We were able to soend some time at both places. Larry was attentive to the changing weather conditions to ensure our safety. He was kind, knowledgeable and patient. We would definitely book with Larry again!

    Great Day on the Water with Captain Larry

    4 Hour – Boating Adventure (AM) • 4 adults • 2 children

    We booked this trip hoping to see some wildlife, but unfortunately it was too cold for them to be out. Captain Larry was super accommodating about the change in plans and took us to a sandbar instead where we had a great time. He was incredibly friendly throughout the whole experience and made sure we still had an enjoyable day despite the weather not cooperating for manatee viewing. Would definitely recommend Captain Larry for anyone looking for a relaxed, fun day on the water with a captain who genuinely cares about his guests having a good time.

    Tailors to any request

    4 Hour – Boating Adventure (AM) • 5 adults

    Larry communicated perfectly and offered a wide variety of options for our family of five with kids aged 7, 5, and 3. Went to a great sand bar/island for snorkeling. Then tried another reef, but water was too choppy and did an easy pivot and found an incredible group of dolphins and then cruised through some beautiful channels.

    Response from Captain

    thank you so much for the review, the dolphins were a nice treat!
