We were in search of the clear blue Destin waters and ended up on a tea colored water sandbar! It was still fun but apparently you have to time it according to the tides because the waters aren’t always beautiful. They were quite murky, but we still had a blast! The kids loved the spider on board. Of note, you have to rent the floats. We thought they were included but it was only the lily pad

Hi Jessica, we're happy to hear you and your family still had a great time out at Crab Island! We do provide a large float on every cruise, but we welcome guests to bring any additional floats they may want. Thanks for cruising with us, and we hope to see you all again soon!

Great time!

Captain Skyler/Skiz (sp) was really laid back and accommodating, put us right on top of a pod of dolphins on our cruise out, anchored us out right in the middle of the Crab Island “flotilla” called up the BBQ boat when we were ready to munch and stayed on top of them when our order was taking longer than expected. Altogether had a great time.

We're glad you had an amazing time with Captain Skyler out at Crab Island! Thanks for cruising with Tiki Pub Destin, and we hope to see you again soon!

Went on the 3 hour swim and chill tour with Captain Taylor we had six people  ages 17 to 52. . Capt Taylor was hands down the best captain we have ever had at crab island. He was knowledge about the local marine life. Saw two sea turtles and countless dolphins before shoring up at crab island. He placed us smack in the middle, played good tunes and was extremely attentive to us all.  Captain Taylor made our trip the best. Highly recommend the experience.

Great Fun.

Taylor was our captain and made sure we had a pleasant experience for the 4 hours that we had the catamaran booked!  Trip started with going to look for some dolphins, which resulted in us watching 3-4 dolphins swim for about 15-20 mins.  We then headed to Crab Island where Taylor got us some prime real estate right near Reef Burger and the shop that sells all the inflatables.  He made sure that we did not have to get in and out of the water for our drinks and even got in the water and interacted with us where other Captains just sat there and there was no interaction.
We will definitely be booking this trip again next year!  The extra money for the private boat for 6 is well worth it!
