Great day on the water
Informational, fun, local waters tour. Perfect for a family activity. We felt safe and comfortable on the waters outside of Harbourtown. Overcast skies turned sunny with a chill in the air. A really nice activity for our family.

Fun trip
We had a great time on this adventure! The crew were knowledgeable and fun and we appreciated them! We felt safe and well taken care of aboard the Tammy Jane and disembarked feeling a little smarter than we did before we boarded! Thanks Windows, Sammy and Clayton! And to Kelsey for snapping our pictures!
A fun excursion for the...
A fun excursion for the family on actual working shrimp trawler. Crew were very friendly and informative. Kids got extra attention and were able to sort through many shells and shark teeth crew had. The actual catch was small but included shrimp, flounder, crab and even a puffer fish. Added bonus was taking shrimp home - not often you can claim your own boat to table experience!
Great experience
Knowledgeable and friendly. Had a great time. Would love to do another trip. Great experience. Wonderful weather
