This was a first time experience. It was amazing. The customer service was excellent. They answered all questions with grace and understanding. Our captain, Mike was awesome. The drive over to Crab Island was smooth and amazing. He made sure we got the full Crab Island experience. Definitely will be coming back.

Absolutely the best experience we have ever had. Did not expect it to be that great! Cameron is Absolutely AMAZING. Iboffered him $400 FOR 2 extra hrs but he had another appointment. So, book with him for sure

Had a great time, thank you for the personal experience! I feel like the length of time was perfect. The only thing I recommend is to not go when the jellyfish are procreating you get stung nonstop. Besides that it was a great trip.

Captain Kirk was great and made this experience even more enjoyable! We had a blast!! It was myself, my husband and our 2 boys (12 and 7).

This was a great trip. We left at 10:30 am. Please get their early to register and sign your waivers online. Our captain MIKE was knowledgeable and he put safety first.
Go in the morning 10:30 am. That's the best time. Ice onboard. Take your own beverages and snacks.
Book this vs. getting your own pontoon. You won't regret it.

Lisa_L, Jun 2026
Didn’t fully know what we were going to experience. Had a relaxing boat/tiki ride to the sandbar, narrated by Captain Al! Saw several dolphins along the way!!! Anchored at the sandbar bar where we were able to just relax on some floating chairs, listen to music and just take in the whole scene!!! Definitely an enjoyable, relaxing afternoon!!!

We had a wonderful time with Al. I initially assumed that it would be boring. I was shocked. We are planning for August!

Caroline_E, May 2026
My husband and I travel to Destin every year and this was by far one of our most favorite experiences we have done! It was so fun, yet super relaxing, and Captain Mike made the trip even more special! He was very nice, social, and very hospitable! He was one our favorite parts of this excursion (and the tiki boat was adorable!). We highly recommend this excursion whether you new to traveling to the area or been here a few times and just looking for something new to do! And we will definitely be asking for Captain Mike next time!
Sandra_C, May 2026
Totally worth it. Captain John was outstanding. On our way to Crab Island we saw dolphins and then even got to view lots of amazing yachts and homes.
kristen_h, May 2026
Captain AL was the best, he played great music and was very diligent on assisting everyone. Would go again! -25 years from west palm
Monica_D, May 2026
We had an absolutely outstanding time on the tiki boat at Crab Island! From start to finish, the experience was unforgettable. The boat itself was clean, comfortable, and had such a fun vibe—perfect for soaking up the sun and enjoying the water. Captains Al and Randy made sure everyone felt safe while still having an amazing time.
A game-changer was having a bathroom on board—such a huge convenience that made the day even more enjoyable and stress-free.
This tiki boat experience is 100% worth it. We’ll definitely be back!
