A Perfect Day on the Water: Dolphins, Shells & a Proposal to Remember šŸ’šŸ¬

2 Hour Trip — Dolphin Watching4 adults2 children

Our experience with Captain Jon’s private boating trip was truly unforgettable from start to finish. I booked this as a special Spring Break outing for my girlfriend, our two boys, our dog Beau, and myself—but it also doubled as a very meaningful moment, as I planned to propose at Shell Island since my girlfriend and the boys love shell hunting. From the beginning, Jon went above and beyond. He proactively reached out about an incoming cold front and suggested we adjust our date to ensure the best possible experience. That level of thoughtfulness made a huge difference, and I appreciated it more than I can say—we ended up with wonderful weather. During the trip, Jon worked hard to make it special for all of us. He even made sure we got to see dolphins, which the boys were thrilled about! When we arrived at Shell Island, everything fell into place for a beautiful, intimate proposal. Without me even asking, Jon captured photos of the moment—something we’ll cherish forever. That small but meaningful gesture really speaks to the kind of person he is. Jon was incredibly kind, patient, and personable throughout the entire trip. He made our family feel comfortable right away, was so friendly with our dog Beau on his first boat ride, and even let our boys take turns driving the boat—something they’re still talking about! He has a calm, easygoing presence and is genuinely enjoyable to be around. This wasn’t just a boating trip—it was a core memory for our family. I can’t recommend Captain Jon highly enough. If you’re considering booking, don’t hesitate—it is absolutely worth it.

    The best!

    2 Hour Trip — Dolphin Watching • 2 adults

    Joe was very professional on our dolphin trip and he did his best to find us dolphins, and he did! I have some great pictures and it was nice to get his expertise on being out on the water. The only bad thing is, now we want a boat!! I would highly recommend him for whatever your adventure might be! Thanks, Joe!

    Jon was very good at communicating and accommodating our birthday outing! He is was very easy to schedule with and a great host! Major points for professionalism, it’s super important to me to find family friendly fun that feels safe for solo female plus kids. He exceeded expectations šŸ‘šŸ«¶

    2 Hour Trip — Shell Island • 4 adults • 1 child

    Captain Jon was very nice and we had an amazing time. We took the Shell Island Tour. My daughter came home with a ton of shells, we saw a few dolphins, and had a relaxing time on the boat ride! Definitely will book with Captain Jon again!!
