Excellent

We had a great time. We seen multiple dolphins and was able to take great pictures.

Great crew!  We saw lots of dolphins, including a mom and baby.  And dolphins jumping in the wake of the boat.  Only downside is that the water was a bit rough and my 13yo was seasick

Great crew who were very attentive to the customers.  The captain was right on point and best of all, we all caught lots of fish to take home.  I would recommend this trip to anyone who enjoys fishing.

We are locals and had a great time. The deck hands were so attentive with all passengers from keeping lines from being tangled to keeping bait for us.  They also take your fish off the hook as quick as you catch one.  The captain knew how to find the fish for us to catch.   My family  normally take another charter from Destin harbor but we have a new fishing boat to fish off of - which is Olin Marler.  Thanks for a fun day.  We will be back.

1/2 day fishing trip

We had a blast on this fishing trip. Boat was a very good size. We had 24 people on our trip and had more than enough room! Everyone caught 15+ fish. Deck hands were very personable and friendly. Was a really great experience. Will be booking again!

Great fishing trip.

The service, food, and entertainment was good. My husband’s ordered the crab cakes and he wasn’t all the way pleased with the crab cakes. They were too salty and too much filler.

Good

I enjoyed everything about it. It was my wedding anniversary and my husband and I got tipsy, danced, sung, ate & watched fireworks. What else could you ask for?

Food was great but sure was a serving only ( the serving size definitely was different from mine

The two good looking guys running the cruise were amazing! We found dolphins quickly, and they gave us all sorts of great recommendations for restaurants and activities! I will definitely go back!

So fun!

Great trip!! Rather on the chilly end but still saw plenty of dolphins. They were excellent at communicating and got us really close to the dolphins. Will go on this tour again!

Everyone was helpful, knowledgeable and friendly. So fun!!

We had such a great time. Our kiddos (13 and 9) also enjoyed the ride. We saw lots of wildlife. The ride was smooth. A great way to see the sights of Destin Harbor. We’ll do it again!

Worth the money!

The experience of riding the jetskis was a lot of fun. The problem is that roughly 30 minutes of your ride is devoted to exiting and returning to the very extensive no-wake zone. We're boaters, so we understand the concept, but it seems unfair to penalize the riders for the unfortunate location of the company's dock.

I would suggest adding an additional 15 minutes to the rental to account for the lost time. 

Other than that, staff was good and the jetskis were good!

Good, but not great.

The boat itself was very comfortable and nice.  The service from the guys helping us with the boat was wonderful.

The pontoon rental was a smooth easy transaction and we had a great time cruising, even spotted a dolphin and some sting rays.

Easy, fun time!

Everything went smooth. Check in was easy. People helping were great. Only negative was that the boat was really old. Radio didn’t work and the steering was a little dicey. Overall good time. Saw that they had newer boats when we got back. They must have given us the older one since our rental was in the afternoon.

We had a great time! James and Matt were super friendly, helpful, and informative and made the whole experience very enjoyable.  The view at sunset was amazing and made for a very relaxing and memorable evening that was a highlight of our trip to Destin.

10/10 would sail again

We chose a sailing adventure because we’d never done it before. Sailing at sunset and seeing dolphins was just a plus! It was so peaceful with an amazing breeze; both my husband and I almost fell asleep! Both captains were amazing! So friendly and laid back, very chill and made the whole trip even better! They taught us a little about sailing and what to expect before we even got on board! Highly recommend regardless of who you’re with. It was beautiful!

1st time customer

This excursion was super fun! I can’t say enough about how hard the crew worked to make sure everyone had a good time & caught fish! There was a large group of military (Army) families on our excursion so that was a little overwhelming but the crew made sure that while the army crew was the majority, the smaller subset of patrons were attended to as well! We caught several fish that the crew did a great job of preparing for us (filleting & putting on ice in a bag) & we took them to a local marina side restaurant for a ‘Hook & Cook’ meal for them to prepare!  We’ve already told several families at 30A about the great time we had & encouraged them to sign up for an excursion as well!
