Crab island charter
Great experience! The crew took great care of us, super helpful to anything we needed. We booked four hours and it didn’t seem to short or long it was perfect. They had a bathroom for us, waters, pool noodles, lily pad, volleyball, and a football for the kids to play with. If you are hungry they also can call venders over for you to the boat for food. The boat was very spacious as well. Very family friendly. 10/10. We will book again next year.

Absolute 10/10 Experience—Trust the Reviews About the Morning Tide!
We booked a 3-hour Crab Island boat tour, and it was an absolute highlight of our trip! Our captain, Justin, and crew member, Katie, were phenomenal—incredibly helpful, attentive, and highly informative throughout the entire excursion.
The boat was perfectly equipped with top-notch amenities, including life vests for both adults and children, great floats, paddleboards, and excellent snorkel gear.
Pro-tip for anyone booking: timing is everything! We booked the 8:30 AM morning slot to align with high tide, and the sunny weather combined with the high tide meant the water was completely crystal clear—absolutely perfect for snorkeling. By 10:00 AM, as the tide turned, the murky bay water began to take over, which makes a massive difference in the overall look and experience. Overall, it was an amazing family experience, and we will absolutely be back again!

Do it!
It was a little hidden but, we found it pretty easily. We went to rent a jetski for my husbands first time. Everyone was friendly and very helpful. The instructors answered all my questions and went through everything with us. They were super in depth on safety. Will definitely be going back!

Captain Dan the Man!
Dan was an amazing captain. We had a great time. He was kind and went out of the way to communicate with vendors and call them over for us. He was so sweet! He made the trip amazing! Thank you. Completely as advertised. Boat was pretty. We will be back.

Great experience! Captain...
Great experience! Captain Harry did an amazing job and was so friendly! Short boat ride out to Crab Island. We saw dolphins on the way! We loved the paddle boards, lily pad and floating seats. Capt Harry had a football that was a lot of fun to toss around. Weather was beautiful. Such a fun activity with many memories!

BYOB and food and have fun!
You can bring your towels, ice chest with drinks, even Alcohol- they don’t sell any alcohol/beer out on the water or the boat so BYOB! You can even bring food. It’s fun, relaxed and a great experience. The trip to crab island is extremely quick. 10 minutes tops and they drive slow. Once they “park”, you’re able to get off and hang out. The captains are nice.

Fun, thrill ride!
This was my first time driving a jet-ski. To participate, you must complete a FL boating safety test to receive a temporary license. I failed it the first time, so I did the study test before retesting. It took me about an hour to complete before I retested. This process was a little off-putting, but I understand the importance and legality of knowing basic water safety before operating someone else's equipment. It was a big relief to pass and get on the water. The guide leads the way, and we followed behind on our own jetskis. He took us around several different areas and gave brief information about certain areas. The ride was very fast-paced, and I lagged behind a lot, but the guide was patient with me, being that it was my first time and I wasn't as fast as the other participants. There is definitely a learning curve, but it's worth it! We had about 45 minutes to explore Shell Island, and I used some of that time to solo drive and practice on my jetski. When it was time to ride back, I was better at keeping up with the group. Overall, it was a fun experience!

Rainy Day
We called a few times to see if it the event was going to be cancelled, but they kept saying it’s the captains discretion! The last time we called my mother called and said we’re closing the hut due to inclemate weather and to meet up with the captain in Destin! By the time we got there, the Hut was closed but our captain Brandon G was there. Told us it was unsafe to ride to crab island, so we decided not to go. He was really polite and well informed.

I was instantly greeted...
I was instantly greeted by the captain Mike who was kind enough to hold my things while I got onboard. The playlist was perfect for all genres and a varying demographic of people which makes it even that much more fun! The service was top notch and I will return again. They even helped me take my debit card out of my wallet several times while I was in the water so I could walk around and make purchases which is gratefully appreciated

Destin Dolphin Cruise - Flippers Adventures
This Flippers Adventures Destin Dolphin Cruise was so much fun. The tour guide pointed our many groups of dolphins on both sides of the boat, stopped several times for everyone to get a great view and pictures, and kept everyone thoroughly entertained throughout the hour and a half round trip boat ride into the Gulf.

Awesome Experience!
The Dolphin Cruise was terrific! The captain was awesome- he knew the places to see the dolphins and also provided a nice overview of the history of Destin as well as good places to eat along the waterfront. The 2 young women who were the crew were also great. They took photos of us with the sunset and were very helpful.
