We loved this experience! It is perfect for people that are wanting to see dolphins/crab island without being put on a boat with people they don’t know! Our captain for the day was Hunter, he was very kind and knowledgeable about the area and found us some dolphins immediately! Highly recommended this for small Bachelorette groups, families, or really anyone looking to have a great time!   (Especially great if you have a family with teenagers/young adults!)

Perfect for small groups!

Captain chanlor was personable very knowledgeable I highly recommend anyone who does a trip seek him out the females also commented how easy on the eyes he is

4 hour private boat tour

Captain was great and was personable.   We saw dolphins and had a. Wonderful time at crab island

Chandler tailored our experience for us and it was the highlight of our trip!  My son and I went to crab island and paddle boarded then went to an area nearby and saw a bald eagle, cranes and lounged in the water. We then went on the hunt for dolphins and saw no less than 10 frolicking and jumping out of the water to include a mother and baby dolphin. Chandler was so accommodating and welcoming and made us feel right at home. 
I’ll be going to back to take friends and booking Chandler again then. 
Amazing experience all around!

Majestic experience

We had so much fun! The Captain was very nice & knowledgeable of the area and made the charter very fun for me and the kids!

Highly recommend!

Chandler was an excellent guide. We enjoyed seeing dolphin, turtle, shark, and paddle boarding at Crab island.

Great

Everyone had such a great time on the boat with Chandler. We couldn't have asked for a better host. He even shared his secret on how to remain standing on the paddle boards, lol. Highly recommend.

Loved By All

We had an awesome time, and captain Chandler was amazing!  We got to learn amazing details on the island, and some great food tips!  He was so accommodating, and made sure we got the full experience!  I would recommend Captain Chandler for anybody!  He was also enthusiastic, and fun!  One of my favorite experiences  of our trip!

Awesome time with great Capt!!!!

Our Captain was fantastic. He was safe and passenger conscious at all times, but was personable also. The only reason for a 4 star is: wasn't able to enjoy the experience due to jellyfish.

Jellyfish...Yuke!

Captain Chandler was very knowledgeable and curated the trip to our liking! Excellent service!

Loved our experience!

great time!!

We had a nice time on the tour. The staff and crew were nice. It was disappointing to receive notification of the canceled 9am tour when we showed up after paying. They were nice and gave us parking, but a telephone call before we arrived would have been nice. We had to find things to fill up a four hour space of time. Additionally, hearing a more inclusive music selection would have made it much more enjoyable. Music can create a happy place, but it everyone needs to hear something that's relatable. Maybe take some requests.

Timely Notification & Music Inclusion

Had a great experience with my husband, bathroom was available when needed on the boat we came on. the weather was great when we went the beginning of June. floats were available from the boat and guides were nice and helpful from our boat

I booked a pontoon boat rental through TripShock, which apparently acts as an agency for individual rental operators.
When the rental I had chosen fell through, TripShock proactively found an alternate operator and made all the arrangements to switch my booking.
A woman from TripShock called me to let me know what was going on and answered all my questions, and TripShock followed up with e-mails and text messages. They even told me the best place to park near the marina.
Oh, and the rental from the replacement operator turned out to be less expensive than my original booking, so I got a partial refund, too.
Before I started, I was a little wary of booking through an agency instead of contacting individual rental operators directly. But I am so glad I went to TripShock.com. Their web site is a great place to find a lot of offers, and I can't say enough good things about their customer service.

Good boat, great customer service

The crew was really nice! Boat was perfect.
