Amazing Saturday Date Night!

We had an amazing Saturday night sunset tour! Captain Forrest and Captain Dan were so much fun and personable that really work well with each other. There were multiple dolphin sightings and even saw them playing in our wake. Two beverages even came as part of the tour. We hung out in front of the Sanibel lighthouse for everyone to get plenty of pictures at a wonderful sunset as Captain Forrest snapped away for all the groups and even sneaking himself in with the last shot. If you are in Fort Myers this excursion is well worth it!!! Excellent time!!!!

Private day time cruise with the best captain!

I had an amazing time on the 90-minute Private daytime sightseeing cruise! The views from the water were absolutely stunning — we got to see everything from a whole new perspective. What really made the experience unforgettable was Captain Ryan. He was knowledgeable, funny, and made everyone feel welcome and at ease. His narration was the perfect mix of interesting facts and great stories, and you could tell he genuinely loves what he does. Captain Ryan is hands down the best — I wouldn’t want to cruise with anyone else. Highly recommend this trip if you’re looking for a relaxing and beautiful way to explore the area!
