About Your Trip

Ready to turn your perfect Jersey Shore daydream into reality? Join Captain Chris for an unforgettable Tices Shoal Beach Excursion on the beautiful waters of Barnegat Bay—where the vibe is easy, the sun is shining, and the good times just keep rolling.

This trip is all about kicking back and enjoying the water your way. Whether you’re looking to swim, float, soak up the sun, or cruise the bay with your favorite playlist, Captain Chris has you covered. With space for up to 12 guests and flexible trip lengths from 3 to 10 hours, it’s the perfect setup for birthdays, family outings, or a laid-back day with friends.

You’ll cruise out to iconic spots like Tices Shoal and F-Cove—famous sandbar party destinations where boats gather, music plays, and everyone’s enjoying the water. Drop anchor and dive in for a swim, lounge on floats, or just relax onboard with a cold drink in hand. Want to turn things up a notch? Add tubing or tow rides for some high-energy fun, or keep it mellow with a scenic cruise around Barnegat Bay’s hidden gems and wildlife.

Captain Chris brings decades of local knowledge to every trip, meaning you’ll hit the best spots at the best times—whether that’s a lively sandbar scene or a peaceful sunset cruise to wrap up the day. Safety is always top priority, with a USCG-licensed captain, fully insured vessel, and all the required safety gear onboard so you can relax and enjoy every moment.

Your trip includes everything you need for a smooth day on the water: fuel, coolers with ice, a Bluetooth sound system to set the vibe, and all safety equipment. Optional add-ons like tubing or floats are available to customize your experience even further.

ust bring your sunscreen, towels, snacks, and drinks (alcohol is welcome in moderation—no glass, please), and you’re all set for a great day on the bay. Whether you’re looking to party, relax, or explore, Captain Chris will make sure you have a fun and easygoing time out at Tices Shoal.

We vet our guides and only partner with the best of the best. Our guides do their very best to keep you safe, show you a great time, and send you home with a memorable experience shared with family and friends.

Once you've paid your deposit at checkout, we'll send you a QR Code boarding pass. Just show your guide your boarding pass on the day of the trip, they'll scan it, the remaining balance will transfer automatically, and you'll be all set to get out there. Just make sure you bring a cash tip for the guide!

In the event of inclement weather, our guides will check the conditions and make the final call on whether its safe to go on the trip. If they decide the trip needs to be postponed, we'll work closely with you to reschedule or provide a credit for the full deposit, which can be applied to any of our trips in the US and beyond.

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. Additional costs may include leases, marina or slip fees, and the expenses involved in providing and maintaining the necessary gear for your trip.

After booking your trip, we'll connect you directly with your guide to discuss additional details. In the meantime, our team is here to answer any questions via email, text, or phone.
