Fun trip

    Experienced and Family Friendly!!

    Private Snorkel Charter (4hr / PM)6 adults2 children

    Captain Matt gave our family an unforgettable snorkeling trip in the Florida Keys! He was knowledgeable, patient, and made Brandon, me, and our four kids feel safe and comfortable from start to finish. He knew exactly where to take us for the best snorkeling, and the experience exceeded all of our expectations. His friendly personality and genuine passion for what he does made the day both relaxing and exciting. If you’re looking for a captain who truly cares about giving you an incredible experience, I highly recommend Captain Matt—you won’t be disappointed!

    Amazing snorkel experience

    Private Snorkel Charter (2hr / PM)5 adults3 children

    Captain Matt clearly cares about what he does! We saw so many fish ! He knew the perfect private spot to go to! It was relaxing and fun. We felt perfectly safe with him. We had 3 young kids and have the pad rolled out on the water for he kids to lay on and put their masks in the water too. Again would recommend to everyone!

    Response from Captain

    I’m so glad we were able to get you out on the water on such a flat calm day. The kids took to the water like fish! I have plenty of shallow reefs we can exlpore for your family. Capt Matt Bellinger Bamboo Charters

    Best Boat Guide in the keys!!

    Private Snorkel Charter (4hr / PM)3 adults1 child

    We had an amazing time out on the water with Captain Matt! Our family trip included snorkeling, hanging out at the sandbar, and even a little fishing—there was something for everyone to enjoy. We actually forgot to bring towels, but Captain Matt had us covered, which really shows how thoughtful and prepared he is. The whole experience was smooth, relaxing, and a lot of fun from start to finish. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a great day on the water with family!

    Response from Captain

    our custom charters are perfect for those who want to mix things up a bit and experience new activities on the water. thank you for coming out and thanks for the kind words

    Family fun fishing!

    Private Snorkel Charter (4hr /AM)4 adults

    Booked a trip to go fishing with my family and ended up with my daughter and my daughter-in-law and myself. We could not have had a better time if we tried. The captain was fantastic! Captain Eddie made sure we were all comfortable, had equipment ready to go, filleted all the fish we caught. This was an awesome experience, for anybody with a lot of fishing experience, like myself, or my daughters, who had a little experience!

    Response from Captain

    First we appreciate you trusting your family activity with us and your kind review. Capt Eddie enjoys showing guests the amazing waters of the backcountry of the Everglades. come on down anytime and we can show you other great areas for fishing and snorkeling.

    Great day of snorkeling

    Private Snorkel Charter (4hr /AM)5 adults

    The captain was very experienced and knowledgable. He took us to several reefs where we saw a wide variety of sea life which included many colorful fish as well as some baby hammerhead and nurse sharks. It was great to have a charter and not have to deal with the crowds. We finished the day taking some great pictures in the sandbar. This boat was one of the main highlights of our trip to the Keys!

    Response from Captain

    Ernesto thank you for coming out with Bamboo Charters. The sealife made the day an easy one. The combo of Snorkeling and sandbar makes my job easy ! Capt Matt
