Captain Ozzie and his crew were super fun !! They made the trip enjoyable and they were super helpful getting you drinks or handing you floats ! I would definitely take this trip and recommend it to everyone .

Would’ve been a great...

Would’ve been a great experience without the rain. But cant always predict the weather, right. Otherwise the crew was phenomenal and made the gloomy day more enjoyable.

Best Deal in town for 4 hours at crab island

This may be the most affordable way to enjoy crab island. The 4-hour trip was just enough time to swim, relax, and get some sun. 15 minutes out and 15 minutes back leaves you 3.5 hours of FUN. The crew was very friendly and helpful. The boat has all that you might need shade, sun, bathroom, and a good play list that keeps the day Fun. If you are looking for a reasonable adventure to crab island this is your place.
