My husband and I did an hour jet ski tour. It was a lot of fun!! I was ever so grateful that the tour guide parked my jet ski with me on it so I didn't have to try to balance on the side of the dock. (I have severe balance issues.) I was too scared to really go super fast but I still had a lot of fun and so did my husband! (My husband wanted to buy a jet ski afterwards LOL). We even got to see some dolphins. Super cool! Highly recommend, they were super courteous and accommodating. Smiles all around 😀

It was our first time in Daytona beach celebrating our 25th anniversary and the first time seeing dolphins, it was worth every minute and dollar! Captain Rick and our guide Jordan were very friendly, helpful and fun to be around! We saw alot of dolphins and their young. I recommend signing the waiver that you recieve in an email before coming to make checking in super quick.

Me and my wife had an amazing experience here! We highly recommend. Our tour guide Charlie was excellent and highly skilled at operating water craft. I don’t ever leave reviews but this was a must. Staff was so professional and polite! We were originally going to go to Rose bay water sports but I’m so glad we chose here instead! Keep doing what you’re doing! The experiences you all are offering is what life is all about! Thank you again!

What a fun day! My sister and I really enjoyed the trip, and first mate Jordan was very informative about so many things! Along with the captain, their personalities made the day so enjoyable! We saw many dolphins, but the most exciting part was that we saw a very small baby dolphin swimming between two adult females- so cute, and unforgettable! I will be sure to bring other friends and family that come to Florida on this trip.

I visit every year from NY and I come to this place each and every time I come to Florida. From Jiffy at check in to the captains and the first mates this cruise never disappoints. It's educational, fun, and each time I learn something or see something new. I always bring someone new with me and their reaction is always the same. "WOW!!" Can't wait to see you next year!!!

Capt Lee and First Mate Grace were wonderful. My elderly grandmother wanted to join but ended up getting sick on the boat. Grace jumped in to help while Capt Lee got us to the Coast Guard station. They were so understanding and helpful. Once my grandmother was taken care of the cruise went on just like normal. I will gladly tell anyone that this is the boat to go on!!!

We were headed to the dock for a dolphin tour on Saturday when we were in a rear end collision. We were stopped for pedestrians and the person behind us was on their phone and smacked right into us. After realizing everyone was ok, we quickly realized we would not be making the boat. I called to let them know. Without hesitation the person on the phone (Jiffy) asked us if we would like to be rebooked or if we would like a refund. I was very surprised as most places would have said "sorry no refunds"... We made our trip today and it was so great! It was nice that the kids who had questions were acknowledged and answered and we saw a ton of wildlife. The cruise was not rushed and it was very well done. Thank you for making what was a very had experience with the accident a little better!

I went with my family last week and Lee and Gina were awesome! Gina was SO informative and we learned a lot! She was so sweet too. We saw dolphins, birds, and pelicans (one that was friends with a photographer too). I didn’t find any shells though which was a bummer but I did get to steer the boat!! Thanks again Lee and Gina, you guys are awesome!!

Our fishing trip this morning was so great! We have a son with Down Syndrome and 2 sons on the Autism Spectrum. They were wonderful with them..and our daughter. They helped all of us to bait our hooks and cast our lines. My husband actually got a chance to fish for a change...he always gets stuck non-stop helping kids at home. We were in Orlando/Kissimmee area for vacation. So glad we made the trip out to go fishing with Ponce Inlet watersports. My youngest gets motion sick and had no problems while out on the boat. (I admit I did give him zofran about 6:30 am for the drive out. And fishing went until about 1 pm.)

Fishing experience was so fun! Be sure to bring drinks (of choice 😉) and snacks. The boat had full shade, so we never really got hot. Everyone on board caught something and some caught lots! We did wish for a speaker so we could have music, but Captain Doc was very informative and down to earth. Great company!!

I had never been on a fishing trip before and Doc and Lindsey made it so fun! They patiently showed me several times how to cast my line until it stuck! They even put the bait on many times. We went to a variety of places on the river to fish. They both told great stories and shared great information about the area in terms of nature and the development. Thank you both!

We absolutely LOVED our tour with Captain Lee and Gina! We got to see a whole pod of dolphins, Shell Island was beautiful, and Gina was absolutely amazing with my son Joseph!
She let him hang out right beside her, and seeing how much joy it brought him made it that much better for us!
The ride is 5 stars, the endless information Gina shares is 5 stars (she really knows her stuff!), and the jokes are easily 10 stars if I could give that!
It's fun, relaxing, inexpensive, and every minute is enjoyable with beautiful sights, calm water, and a friendly crew.
We will be back! First time for us, but definitely will not be the last! Thank you all for giving us a wonderful tour!

Highly recommend! First 15 mins into the trip our 1 year old was getting a little antsy & whiny.. low and behold here came Captain Danielle to save the day! She scooped her up and took her back to drive the boat & keep her entertained. She rocked it! Skylar immediately took over & highly enjoyed the rest of the trip which overall helped us & everyone else enjoy the ride as well. Captain & first mate were both awesome, very informative & extremely pleasant! They handed over some really cool shells to Skylar & Captain Danielle even had Skylar up front waving to everyone as we were leaving the boat. What we thought was going to be a very long 90 min trip there, turned out to be an awesome experience we thoroughly enjoyed & get to smile back on. Not too mention all the cool dolphins we got to see up close. Great experience! Thank you again! 💛

I would like to thank Gina and Captain Doc for an amazing 4 hour back Waters fishing trip. They were beyond amazing and so much fun. I strongly recommend going out with these guys. we did the eco tour then the next morning did the fishing trip. both trips were amazing and well worth the money. we are planning another fishing trip in the near future.

We enjoyed the Dolphin and Manatee Cruise. Our captain and her assistant were very friendly and informative. We were excited to see dolphins. Some came close to the boat. We sat at the front of the boat and got some spray. Also, at times it was difficult to hear the captain. Perhaps a microphone would help. Over all, we would recommend this excursion.
Amanda S.
23:37 26 Feb 22
We took the dolphin & manatee tour with my sister Gina as our tour guide she’s funny and that’s the perfect job for her lol! And the super nice and funny Captain Tom! Very professional. We went to Sand Dollar Island and enjoyed their ice cream place right after. Took us through shark alley and under the drawbridge. Also the Coast Guard Station was so cool to see up close. We saw tons of dolphins it’s very neat to see them in the wild🐬 can’t wait to do some of their other tours. Highly recommend!⚓️

My husband and I booked have done two private charter boat hires with our two kids (11 and 8). We always book with Ponce Inlet Watershots as they are simply the best!! Lur first trip waa with Captain Danielle who was a fountain of knowledge. Danielle gave us loads of interesting information about the wildlife, eco system and fish. She took us to several different fishing spots and my husband caught a huge bonnet nose shark. As you can see from the photo, we are all very excited about this catch! We then had Captain Josh for our second charter and he was equally amazing. My son loves fishing and Captain Josh took us put on the ocean where he helped him catch a huge ray! We caught loads of fish and Captain Josh was kind enough to filet several of them which we later had for dinner. Thank you Captain Danielle and Josh for a brilliant day and thank you Ponce Inlet Watersports for always providing excellent customer service and a professional fun experience.

What an amazing experience from start to finish! Easy online reservation and accommodating service. We were running late for our reservation (there were 10 of us) and called to let them know. They said they would wait. Then as things happen on our vacations we blew a tire! We called again and they let us move our reservation to a later time. When we checked in, the service was friendly and on a 1st name basis. The 1st mate was awesome and had a lot of information to share about the local wildlife. This was the 1st Florida vacation for 3 of my grandkids. I promised my granddaughter that we would see manatee, sea turtles and dolphins. Today we marked the last 2 off our list. Thank you for the memorable day for this grandma. Myself, 3 of my kids and their significant others plus 5 grandkids all had a fabulous experience!

Went for the 90 minute Dolphin tour with Tom & Gina. Absolutely fantastic!

Captain Jason and Gina were very entertaining. I highly recommend taking this 90 min. boat tour. worth every dime. We saw dolphins, sea turtles and a sting ray. We had such a blast. Loved hearing about all the history and the haunted house. Definitely a must do! 5 stars all the way. Wish I could remember the name of the haunted house though.

Fabulous boat tour with very knowledgeable and friendly captain and crew. We saw a dolphin maternity pod before even leaving the inlet, and then, a little later on, dolphins feeding. So incredible to watch them hunt, tossing the fish in the air and playing.

We went today September 3, 2021 and please forgive me I don’t remember their names but the captain and the crew are both females very educational. love seeing the dolphins and learning all about the area. Will definitely come again the next time I am visiting Florida. They also recommended going to the marine center which we did before hand, also very educational and only five dollars per person. we did not visit the lightHouse unfortunately. Maybe next time.

Amazing boat trip today with the Ponce Inlet Watersports today!! The captain and first mate made the trip super exciting and informative although not much dolphin or manatee sitings!! Well worth the trip and reasonably priced!! Thank you!! Will continue to bring out of state guests to your services in the future!!!
Update: I forgot to mention how accommodating and attentive the whole boat staff where to my little ones who asked questions upon questions and then spoke about the new Luca movie (under the sea creatures) and with out a beat didn't ruin the imagination of a little boy but encouraged it!!

We took my sister out to sea for the last time. A small informal celebration. JIffy and Captain Josh were absolutely wonderful - very caring, sincere and patience. With our time schedule, Jiffy said he would take care of everything...AND he did ! Josh knew exactly when to help us and when to step back. His professionalism made our trip most memorable. Not only that, he's quite a character !! ... For sure, we strongly and highly recommend this company AND Captain Josh .

Captain and first mate very friendly and educational about Dolphins and manatees. Child friendly . Allowed them to sit at steering wheel of boat . Both of my nephews got too . One was 8 the other 11 (looks older ) but the captain allowed him to do when going faster on boat . This truly meant a lot to me and I know it effected Isaac. Thank you again . The best money spent on our trip from Kentucky . First time to Daytona area for me and first time ocean experience for my nephews . Highly recommend ! Also the first mate helped me on and off boat , which I truly appreciated .

My Daughter and I took the Dolphin Manatee 90 minute boat tour and really enjoyed it! Right from the parking lot to the boat, the staff was amazing, helpful, and kind. Our boat tour started a bit late due to a large group running behind, but the crew was fantastic. The cruise itself was beautiful, on a hot sunny day, no manatees, but a handful of dolphins, birds, and jelly fish. A quick stop at a little beach was nice and the crew really cares about the environment and the animals which is really nice. Highly recommend and we will be back!

20:50 14 Mar 21
We were in for bike week and took a 90 minute dolphin Manatee tour which we were talked into by one of the employees. I couldn’t believe the quality of the trip for the price.
We saw many dolphins in the wild and although we didn’t see any manatees, We got a very thorough education about The channels, inlets, and safety while navigating them, as well as a front row seat to the wildlife preservation efforts of the staff. It is clear that everyone on the boat had a heart toward preserving the animals. The animals seem the priority for the crew and that was very touching to see. We learned about all of the wildlife that we did spot along the shoreline. We learned about mangroves and oyster beds. (Ouch!) we had a great stop at Shell Island as well. I mean the island was just OK but my smoking friends were really happy for the break. It doesn’t hurt that an ice cream boat showed up “conveniently“ upon our arrival and one of my biker friends decided to treat the boat. If you are a smoker I highly recommend this move so that the tour keeps the stop at Shell Island. I mean there really isn’t a lot of shelling to be done there... do you know what I mean?LOL.
Captain Daniel and first mate Amber treated everybody with dignity and respect no matter how they were dressed. In fact,every staff member from the parking attendant to the trainees It was an excellent, customer-first focused individual. Terrific outing. highly recommend.

Terrific experience!! Captain Danielle and First Mate Ashley made the experience so fun. Saw dolphins, mom and baby along with others. Water so very clear. Loved the island stop.

I cannot thank Doc and Ashley enough for my first time fishing experience. Very customer oriented, taught me to bate a hook, cast and fish and I brought in four fish, a nice red, a black drum, and two jacks. Great trip, would absolutely fish with them again. Doc knew exactly where to go to hit the fishing holes. Doc filleted all the fish for us and then we headed to “Off the Hook” up the street from the marina and they cooked all our fish for us. Delicious! Thank you again Doc and Ashley!!!

Today, May 28, 2020, we went on the 2 pm Eco tour. We were greeted with a warm welcome and an easy check in at the office to begin. Shortly after check in we boarded the boat with Danielle and Captain Rob. We learned so much about the history and wildlife around us, all while enjoying a nice breeze on the boat. Both informative and fun!!
A stop to a sandbar/island area to collect shells was a delight. Capt. Rob even took his flip flops off and went in knee deep water to grab a she'll my husband spotted from shore. Danielle helped identify and gather shells too. It was so nice to chat and share the excitement of our finds with them.
We will definitely be making regular trips out with them and bringing our out of town visitors too.
Thanks to the staff and crew! 👏👍🛥️🐚🐬

We took a private fishing trip with Capt. John and had a great time. Fishing was a little slow to start, but Capt. John kept working and put us on some fish towards the end of our trip. We had great conversation and were able to catch 6 or 7 different species of fish, and took 2 red fish, a black drum and a blue fish home. We will definitely come back if we get the chance....thank you!!
Tami Hammack H.
21:46 18 Mar 20
We’ve been fishing with Water Sports for 10 years. Every Ormond vacation we come fishing. Use to fish with Capt. John and been with Captain Doc and Kristie the past two years. Very knowledgeable, help you with everything, and get a eco trip along with the fishing. You won’t find a better place on the Atlantic. Top notch! We tell everyone!

We had a wonderful Captain and first mate!! They were very attentive and knowledgeable about the area.

Had an awesome time with family that came down to visit us from Indiana. Captain Dave, and I believe his name was Nick, and the photographer were all great! Definitely recommend checking this place out if you get the chance. I went parasailing in Key West and bought the photographers SD card with the pictures and videos and they were so terrible. The pictures and videos that Ponce Inlet Water Sports take are so crystal clear!

14:54 20 Sep 19
Our 8 and 5 year old sons have been wanting to fish in the ocean like on the show Catching Monsters but also wanted to see wild life and find some seashells. I contacted Ponce inlet water sports and they recommended chartering a boat with Captain John. Our 4 hour fishing, dolphin and seashell finding boat ride was nothing short of fantastic. Captain John was great with our kids (and our 17 month old!!) and we all had so much fun. We caught several different type of fish and some were keepers that we took home and ate for dinner. I highly recommend them. We will be back next year!
Andy W.
01:03 12 Sep 19
Did the dolphin and manatee tour on Tuesday and went backwater fishing on Wednesday. Had a great time on both. We found them last year during our visit and couldn’t wait to return again this year. Very friendly and knowledgeable staff. Highly recommend, you won’t be disappointed.

I highly recommend the back water fishing with captain John!!! He is an amazing guide and a genuinely nice person! We had so much fun, he told us a little about the area and got us set up quickly. We caught 8 fish in a little over an hour (4 different species) and then on our way back he stopped so we could look for shells. We then got a surprise and saw a storm rolling in. He got us back fast and safe before it started raining! We appreciate the friendliness and the professionalism of the entire crew! Thank you all so much for a great time!!

Great company and a great time!

We had a great time. The staff was accommodating and friendly. The tour was different than other boat tours I have taken in the fact that they took you to a nice beach and let you get off and pick up shells and explore a little. I would definitely take this tour again.

We went on the dolphin and manatee tour. We thought we was guaranteed to see them but it turns out you are not guaranteed. We didn’t see anything other than birds. They said they didn’t see anything the tour in front of us either. Our kids was disappointed as well as the adults. We had 9 people in our group. We felt like it was a waste of money. The crew was nice.
Jeffrey T.
02:23 17 Jul 19
Captain Doc and Captain Kristy were the best. Kept all of us entertained with facts and interesting tidbits of information regarding the estuarian habitat and inhabitants in addition to some of the history of the area. Everyone caught fish and special attention was given to the kids who were having as much fun as anyone on the boat, without taking away anything from any adults on board. Would definitely recommend the trip for a fun day and fishing as well. Very educational for Arizona people... enjoyed all of it!!!
Anne LaBonte D.

Had the best time yesterday on our tour! Captain Rob, Daniel & Anna made us feel like family from jump.

We have had the best experience with this company. This is my first time in Daytona Beach and we have spent 3 days of our week long vacation with Ponce Inlet Water Sports. Their staff is top notch which sets them above others in the area. Jiffy who works inside is not only knowledge about everything you’d possibly want to do on the water but patient and cares about your experience. He’s first class! Haley, Captain Rob and Captain John where also so knowledgeable and quite funny as we took the Dolphin & Manatee Tour. This was such a relaxing experience. These three were so funny and made our experience so much fun!
If you’re in this part of Florida, please make sure you put this on your list of “must do’s!” You won’t regret it!

Wow I highly recommend this Eco tour for anyone who wants to have a fun experience and the staff they are awesome at what they do and you can tell they love their job I mean what's not to love though.

Michele LeClair C.
00:47 05 Apr 19
I chose this activity because of all the great reviews and it surpassed my expectations. Capt. Jack and his mate/guide Kristy were amazing. We saw dolphins several times as well as other local wildlife and learned so much about the ecosystem. The guide even caught a jellyfish to bring aboard to show us and let the children hold and touch. When we stopped to look for shells at a small island Kristy was immediately available to take great pics of people with the lighthouse in the background. I highly recommend the 90 minute eco tour, it’s fun for all ages!

LOVED IT! Went on the 4 hour fishing tour this morning and it was awesome! My daughter has special needs and the Captain and crew Kristi I believe were so good with her! Woman on our boat caught a SHARK! Incredible to see - the crew helped her but let her do all the fighting and reeling. I caught a puffer fish! We all caught many mangrove snappers and when we came back the Captain cleaned and filet them and the shark! Dinner will be delicious! We also saw dolphins, osprey and sting Rays. The crew was knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. I would go again and highly recommend to anyone. Reasonable price too. Gone Fishing �

We had a blast on our fishing charter. Captain John was awesome. He was patient with our sons and gave a great tour. We saw dolphins, a manatee and caught lots of fish, even a stingray. Two thumbs up!! Great place. We will be back again for sure!!

We went out on a fishing trip yesterday with you guys and had a blast! The staff was super helpful and extremely friendly. It was a very relaxed atmosphere and seemed like we were just hanging out with friends! We will definitely be returning guest and absolutely recommend Ponce Inlet Water Sports!
