    Thank you for going with us. We are glad to hear you enjoyed your trip. Our parking lot can be a mess each trip when it’s busy will fill it up to the max. Come back and see us again for your next crab island tour.

    Crab Island is not an Island

    Deborah_P, Oct 2025
    You will spend the day in the water. The boat has floats. They sell water and pop while parked. There are food boats nearby.

    Response from Host, Oct 2025

    Thank you for going on our Crab Island adventure. Crab Island is a very unique submerged sand bar. We are glad to hear you enjoyed your time going to it and hope to have you on it again.

    We had the best time! Our favorite part was on the way back there was a dolphin that jumped up out of the water and did a flip. Crab island was fun also.

    Great Time!

    It's an amazing experience <3 Expect to get a little saltwater in your mouth. Watch out for jellyfish. I had Chic~Fil~A in The Gulf of America!

    Good trip

    Bring your own drinks. They had some for sale on the boat but can’t sell alcohol once you’re at crab island.

    Crab Island bday trip really enjoyed

    AUGUSTA_O, Jul 2025

    Definitely a nice time!

    Natasha_V, Jul 2025
    Owen and Wesley were great! At first they introduced themselves (super friendly) and we were off to crab island along the way we stopped a few times to see some dolphins. It was a beautiful day out and when we made it to crab island it was packed but the guys found a spot easily and we spent a few hours out there on some floats enjoying the water, music and vendors. Would definitely recommend!

    Great family time

    Josh and Hannah were such great hosts! Boat ride was awesome and crab island was beautiful! I would highly recommend.

    Book The Crab Island Tour! 10/10 recommend!

    Katherine_H, Jun 2025
    Book the Crab Island tour, you won’t regret it. We took an extended ride out to Crab Island and saw so many dolphins, this was a great start to the trip. Then we arrived at Crab Island, where our captain, Josh, found a great spot for our group to anchor and spend the morning. Josh and Hannah both were great - interacting with guests, showing our kids the different marine life that was around, and getting floats and toys out for guests to use. Also, I really appreciated the ease of booking the same day, just hours before our tour, on the Viator app - we booked around 7:00 AM and were out on the water at 9:00 AM.

    The trip was great. Flippers Adventures has a very good setup for Crab Island Tours with the boat having nice ladders and a bathroom on board. The captain and crew new what they were doing and you can tell this company has been running tours for a long time.

    Our Crab Island tour in Destin with Flippers Adventures was awesome. From start to finish it was smooth. Crab Island was beautiful and the floats the company provided made the trip very relaxing.

    Please don’t book this...

    Usman, May 2025
    Please don’t book this activity through Viator if you’re not flexible with time. Booking made for 1 PM were moved to 9 AM and informed a day before the activity by event manager which been the case with most of them. Viator has not idea about this mess. Activity was fine.

    Response from Host, May 2025

    Sorry about the issue with this. It has all been corrected with the booking software system that we were unaware of at the time that when someone would click 1pm it would automatically put them on the 9am. This has now been updated and fixed. Again sorry about this we noticed the issue over memorial weekend which was a big confusion and hard to fix since all trips were sold out.

    A wonder
