We really drove the boat a long ways and had an amazing time. The boat was fun and the chairs were like a floating couch. Service was so amazing. Absolutely recommended these guys. .. you cruise at about 4-5mph, so it’s pretty relaxed.

Great time on the 2 person boat leaving out of Ft DeSoto. Cat, the owner, was terrific, giving great instructions on where to find the launch site, ready with boat, cooler with drinks and life preservers. It was a beautiful day to be out on the water with schools of jumping mullets, large birds, and fishermen. I highly recommend this, next time I may launch from DT St Pete or Dunedin.

Booked this for my husband’s birthday as a surprise and we had a wonderful time! We saw hammerhead sharks, Horseshoe crabs, and stingrays! It does go a bit slow so if you want to see St. Pete Pier and hang out, definitely book the 4 hour! But honestly, the 2 hour was perfect and we enjoyed every bit of it :) wonderful customer service as well. Will be booking again in the future!
