How did you discover this activity?

We found this after a Google search for, “fishing, Destin, kid friendly,” and I found the site very easy to schedule.

When did you book your tour compared to the departure date?

We booked about a month before arrival, and had several days that would have worked.

Why did you choose this activity?

My boys are learning the fine art of being patient, and fishing requires this. I wanted them to experience it with my dad, as he’s a long-time Florida resident, and goes fishing often.

How did you get to the activity location?

We drove about an hour from Seaside into Destin, and found parking and finding the boat easy. The instructions were precise and easy to navigate.

What was your experience with the activity’s staff?

Captain Joe is incredibly patient with kids. This is something in his blood, and he knows the water and area well. We caught multiple fish, and made great memories.

Highlights or memories you and your group will take from the trip?

I didn’t really want to fish, and was there to observe and enjoy. Captain Joe baited a line for me, and I ended up catching two of the biggest fish! My boys LOVED seeing it. I did get pictures to document. We threw the fish back.

My oldest son even caught a PUFFER fish! Joe gave us a good history of the area on the boat ride back to the dock. We couldn’t have picked a better day with perfect weather and no wind.

Would you recommend this activity to another group like yours? Why or why not?

I would absolutely recommend this excursion for any family with kids our age. We did not go out into deep waters, and two hours was the perfect amount of time for our group.
