About Your Trip

Hop aboard for a private, customizable pontoon adventure with Captain Neil and his team, where you set the pace and choose the destination. Whether you’re looking to island hop, relax on a sandbar, go shelling, snorkel the shallows, or just enjoy a scenic ride spotting dolphins and native wildlife, this cruise is all about your perfect day on the water.

You'll be cruising in comfort on a 28’ captained tritoon, designed for laid-back fun with room to stretch out, shaded seating, and a smooth ride through some of the most beautiful waters on Florida’s Gulf Coast. Popular stops include Shell Key and Egmont Key, known for their clear water, soft sand, and abundant sea life.

This trip is a hit with families, couples, and small groups, and can be tailored to fit anything from a casual nature cruise to a festive sandbar party. Want to play your own music? There’s a Bluetooth speaker system onboard. Need to keep drinks cold? A cooler with bottled water and ice is provided—just bring any snacks, drinks, or adult beverages you'd like to enjoy.

Captain Neil and his crew are all about making your day easy and enjoyable, whether you’re celebrating something special or just taking it slow. Wildlife sightings are common and include dolphins, rays, manatees, and coastal birds, especially around the islands and mangrove shorelines.

Here’s what’s included:

- Private pontoon cruise for your group
- Cooler with ice and water
- Bluetooth sound system
- Snorkel gear available (bring your own for best fit)
- Licensed, experienced captain

What to bring: sunscreen, towels, hats, swimsuits, your favorite food and drinks, and anything else to make the day yours. Alcohol is welcome, just please enjoy responsibly. Kids are always welcome, and life jackets are provided.

No fishing on this trip—just coastal cruising, wildlife watching, and pure Florida relaxation.

Whether you're here on vacation or just need a change of scenery, Captain Neil and his team are ready to give you a carefree, custom experience that shows off the very best of Florida’s Gulf Coast.

Each trip's price is determined by the guide and reflects all associated costs. A significant factor in pricing is often the type of boat and the corresponding fuel expenses.
