Captains Joe and Jason were both phenomenal. Boats departed on time and the entire experience exceeded our expectations. We saw several dolphins, birds, and enjoyed a beautiful sunset. Highly recommend and will likely rebook in the future.

Captain Kevin was great! We had the best time! The scenery was gorgeous and we enjoyed learning about how the tiny islands were created and seeing wildlife! We were so blessed to be able to enjoy the sunset from a tiny private island! We hope to come back some day to fish with him!

Sunset Cruise with Captain Jason Was Amazing

Samantha_P, Feb 2025
We took a sunset cruise with Captain Jason and had a wonderful time. We were in Naples visiting our 79 year old parents, and took them on a private sunset cruise. We had six people in our party and it was a great experience and value for the price. The boat is a whaler style, which was perfect for our party. Captain Jason was great and went above and beyond to find dolphins and wildlife on our boat ride. We stopped on a beach for seashells and a brief walk, and then stopped for a perfect sunset. Bring a bottle of wine (or your favorite drink) and just enjoy the ride and the moment. I highly recommend Captain Jason for a sunset cruise.

Perfection

Catherine_A, May 2024
This was a truly lovely sunset cruise filled with wildlife, gorgeous scenery and a spectacular sunset. My mother and I were visiting to celebrate her birthday, and while my mother does not swim and is fearful of boats, I had tremendous gratitude for the way in which Jason made her feel comfortable and completely at ease. We saw alligators, osprey, dolphins, kite birds and more! Just a beautiful memory, and Jason is indeed the perfect captain. My mother is STILL talking about it. Book it!

Just a nice relaxing boat...

Just a nice relaxing boat ride - didn’t see much wildlife, but very enjoyable experience. Maybe go fishing trip next time …

Great experience - need to clarify boat type in online description and include a photo of the boat.

Wendy_B, Apr 2024
Jason (boat owner/operator) was very nice. Super quiet so if you are looking for a guide who provides information about the area just ask questions. No wildlife of any kind other than a couple birds was sighted, but of course that’s totally out of anyone’s control. Boat is a “whaler” style - extremely clean. The Viator website created some confusion as when searching online “sunset cruises in Naples”, the first photo shown on Viator (via TripAdvisor) was a catamaran. When booking our private sunset cruise no photos of Jason’s boat are shown and no boat description is provided so we were shocked not to be on a sailboat. This should be clearly stated! Overall we had a very nice experience and would recommend.

Beautiful evening for a sunset cruise We were able to see Dolphins jumping in the water, our captain Jason created a memorable experience for myself and my family

Great experience

Mo_D, Apr 2024
We had a great time with Jason. Catching a glimpse of manatees and dolphins was amazing. Jason was so accommodating with a proposal I planned for my fiancée. We were brought to a small island and everything went perfectly. Watching the sunset was a cherry on top. Definitely recommend!

Up close to the dolphins

Julie_G, Mar 2024
Captain Jason got the dolphins jumping for us in the wake of the boat, right next to us!! Tons of wildlife sightings and a remote beach visit completely blew our expectations out of the water. Excellent value for a private charter experience, we highly, highly recommend!

Private Boat Cruise

Mark_L, Mar 2024
The sunset cruise was awesome and very relaxing. The boat for our private cruise was the perfect size for the 6 of us. Jason did a great job as our guide. He was very informative about the surroundings but was not overbearing with too much information. We would highly recommend this private cruise to any small group. Thanks again Jason for the nice and relaxing evening!!

Beautiful Sunsets

Christopher_M, Feb 2024
My wife and I had a great time! Jason Is an excellent captain and host! The location he chose for us to watch the sunset to conclude our tour was beautiful.

Classy, clean, comfort with amazing views and vibes!

Sally_C, Feb 2024
Spotted a manatee, dolphins jumping, and a gator sunning! Was beautiful sunset out by the gulf, and a fun stop at Horseshoe Key where we found lots of beautiful shells. The music vibe on the boat was perfect! We brought appetizers and some High Noons and had a ball! Also caught the moon rising over the mangroves and got some gorgeous photos! If it’s gonna be a cool night, bring a cozy blanket and warm jackets! Thanks Jason for an amazing evening. Your boat was spotless! Loved that we didn’t have to listen to constant chatter by the captain like on some other tours we have been on! Absolutely lovely!

A Wonderful Time on the Water

Jim_P, Feb 2024
Our group of 6 gals were ready for an adventure on the water and Captain Jason's cruise was just what we needed. Although it was a chilly night, we were able to see manatees and dolphins and a beautiful sunset. Most of all, our time laughing together was priceless. Thank you for providing this wonderful tour.

Sunset Bliss

john_k, Feb 2024
Jason provided the perfect music for our late afternoon tour. He took the time to let us enjoy a beautiful sunset in the Gulf of Mexico.

Beautiful!

Stephanie_K, Feb 2024
This was a great experience! Jason was very nice and accommodating. We were able to see manatees and dolphins. The dolphins were jumping alongside the boat and that was awesome! We had kids with us as well as family from up north. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves. There were plenty of shells on the island we stopped at and the sunset was just gorgeous. This time of year I would recommend a sweatshirt or jacket and bug spray as it gets cold and buggy when the sun goes down. We will definitely be bringing more family and friends on this sunset cruise!!

Phenomenal experience

CRAIG_Z, Feb 2024
I booked this trip that morning. We were looking for something different to do and we were not disappointed. Captain Jason was awesome. I can’t wait to come back down and book a fishing trip with him as this time we did the private sun set trip. I would give 10 stars if I could.

Great sunset cruise

Rafael_V, Jan 2024
We had a great experience! Went with a total party of 5 and 1 toddler. Jason was punctual and very informative about wildlife and surroundings. We did the sunset cruise and saw Manatee’s, doplhins and a variety of birds. We saw the sunset on a private sandbar. Was beautiful and well worth the price. Make sure to dress warm if going in the winter - gets chilly. Would go again!

Beautiful and fun evening

Carla_M, Dec 2023
We had a great trip with Captain Jason! Saw some manatees, dolphins, and lots of birds. The white sand island was beautiful and we captured many beautiful pictures! The whole family had a fun relaxing sunset cruise!

Winter Family Trip

Toby_O, Dec 2023
Captain Jason was very kind and made sure our 11 year old had a very memorable experience. The boat was immaculate and he was so accommodating and knowledgeable. We would absolutely recommend this as a great family or friend tour.

Private tour -affordable price- money well spent!!

Sarah_B, Dec 2023
We showed up a few minutes late and the tour captain was super understanding and kind about it. Due to the clouds it was hard to catch the sunset or get to really appreciate the manatees he tried to show us (only getting to see a nose poke out of the water briefly here and there.) But Jason, (the captain) was very informative and was able to answer all of our questions we had a long the way. Had a great time just enjoying the views and the fact that it was a private tour with just my family made it that much better too. Well worth the price which was actually much better than some of the tours that were available in the same area that weren’t private. Highly recommend!!
