  • Outstanding Boating Experience!!

    We had an absolutely EXCEPTIONAL time with Captain John. Myself, my husband and our two children (3 & 5yrs) wanted a last minute boat trip to share an exciting experience together as a family on the water. Captain John accommodated us swiftly and created an incredible experience for our family to remember forever. We felt very safe in his hands and he showed us some incredible places!! He had a cooler with lots of cold water for us and life jackets to protect us all. We will DEFINITELY hire him again as we all loved every second of it!!! We got to see turtles, dolphins, lots of fish, starfish and tons of unique shells! Highly recommend you booking him now!

  • The best experience my family has ever had.

    Captain John gave us an amazing experience. What a guy. The total package. He even texted me that evening to thank us for spending the day with him. The Real McCoy. Fishing, snorkeling, sea shells, island exploring, dolphins, manatees, sting rays, sharks. Thank you for one of the best days ever.

  • Swiss Army Trip!

    So we asked a lot of Captain John. We wanted a family fun day that had a little of everything. Some snorkeling, some shelling, and some fishing too. He had no problem delivering on all of it and we had a ball! He is a wealth of local knowledge and very educational and patient with the kids. Would highly highly recommend!

  • Unforgettable Experience

    This was my first time fishing, let alone deep sea fishing. And boy did I have the experience of a life time! I caught a few snapper, sheepshead, mackerel, and a permit. My friends were jealous. Highly recommend for first timers and experienced fishermen!

  • Family Fishing Charter

    Chartered Captain John for a four hour fishing trip so my grandson from Chicago could experience some real

    Gulf style fishing. It's amazing that Capt. John is so knowledge about the area waters. We caught two Grouper while trolling although they were under size my Grandson was so excited to even reel one in. By the end we had caught many fish and had a awesome time. I would personally recommend Capt .John. He knows the waters, knows where to go and fish , what bait the fish are hitting on and facts about the surrounding islands

    Will definingly book with Capt. John again.

  • Awesome

    We did the 2-1/2 hour sunset and nature tour. Captain John was very courteous and made sure that the tour was what we wanted to do and see. Pick you up and drop you off where you wanted it to.be. He suggests options but wants it to be your decision which is nice. He knows the area and the history and the wildlife so you learn a lot. He will allow you to bring food and drinks which is great. Plan ahead and bring a cooler with no glass or nothing breakable. We poured a bottle of wine in a Corkcicle and plastic cups and we were good to go. The sky was a brilliant hue of colors for the sunset. Awesome time. Thanks John. Will do it again. The explanation of the name Five O’clock Charlie is a nice story. Loved seeing the dolphins, I’m sure they are descendants of Charlie.

  • Great Day...highly recommend

    Captain John provided a wonderful charter experience for our family, which included dolphin sightings, fishing, manatees, shell searching, and walk around a natural preserve. Captain John is very knowledgeable of the area and the wildlife and is safe and respectful of the environment. We really appreciate him taking the time to ask what all we wanted to see and do and was very accommodating to our family. At the last minute we decided to do some fishing and Captain John happily provided us with the equipment to do so...to our surprise we ended up catching quite the fish! It could not have been a better day!
