Dean is a USCG-licensed captain and Treasure Island local who knows the area's passes, sandbars, islands, and coastal waterways inside and out.
After years of taking friends and family out on the water, Dean decided to share the same experience with visitors and locals looking for a more personal way to explore Florida's Gulf Coast.
His trips are all about small groups and flexibility. Whether you're searching for dolphins with the kids, hunting for shells on Shell Key, catching a Gulf sunset, or building a completely custom day on the water, Dean enjoys tailoring the experience to the people aboard.
Safety always comes first, but so does having a good time. Dean brings the local knowledge and handles the boat so your group can kick back, explore, and enjoy your time on the water.
