The Perfect Day!!

4 Hour – Ultimate Boating Adventure6 adults

We had an amazing time with Captain Vaughn! We were a group of 6, and the entire experience was so much fun from start to finish. Right at the beginning, we stopped to fill up on gas and got to see some HUGE tarpon swimming around, and we even spotted a nurse shark in the water! It was such a cool and unexpected way to start the trip. Captain Vaughn then took us to a sandbar, and because the tide was so low, it basically turned into our own little private beach in the middle of the water. It was definitely one of the highlights of the day. He also took us to a beautiful spot surrounded by trees where we were able to get some really cool pictures. Later, we went to another similar spot, but we decided we would rather spend more time at a sandbar instead. Captain Vaughn was extremely accommodating and had no problem changing the plan for us. He took us out to another sandbar in the middle of the ocean, and we had an absolute blast. The best surprise came on the way back when we came across more than 10 dolphins! Captain Vaughn got us really close so we could watch them swimming around the boat, and it was the perfect way to end the trip. Overall, we had a fantastic experience. Captain Vaughn was friendly, accommodating, and made sure our group got to spend the day doing what we actually wanted to do. Between the huge tarpon, nurse shark, sandbars, beautiful photo spots, and all the dolphins, it was a day we’ll definitely remember. We had a grand time and would absolutely recommend booking with Captain Vaughn!

    Perfect Day!

    4 Hour – Ultimate Boating Adventure3 adults

    Captain Vaughn delivered the most amazing day for us. We met him at his boat and had a day exploring multiple spots that were all equally gorgeous! Capt. Vaughn was great to hang out with and had lots of interesting stories about the keys. To top it off, we got to see a pod of dolphins ‘play’ with us from the boat- we all loved it!!

    Would definitely book another tour soon!

    4 Hour – Ultimate Boating Adventure6 adults

    Captain Vaughn was absolutely the best and was a great conversationalist. We did a custom tour and went to Snipes, Marvin and Mud Key and it couldn’t have been a more perfect trip. The boat was great and he navigated the waters with ease. I would very much recommend taking this charter.

    Great day on the water!

    4 Hour – Ultimate Boating Adventure4 adults

    My family thoroughly enjoyed our day on the water with Captain Vaughn! It was fun to hear his tales of growing up in Key West and some history of the area. He knew all the great sandbars and we felt very safe with him in charge! We would definitely book again!

    Vaughn was a great guide. Loved the day. We met him at his boat and took a totally different route out to the water than we expected (which was so cool!) He was a great guide, both knowledgeable and caring. Def would do again!!!

    Amazing time!

    4 Hour – Ultimate Boating Adventure3 adults

    Captain Van was great. He was on time and easy to communicate with. I loved being able to have safe parking at no cost. Parking has been a bit of an issue in Key West. He knew all the best spots and had paddle boards and snorkels for us to use included. He had a chest full of ice and took photos. Overall this trip was 10 out of 10.
