I’ve taken a lot of boat tours in my life, and this one was at the top of the heap! We had an afternoon to burn at Ponce Inlet... read more and we took the 2-hour tour with Captain Josh. It was just my family of 5, including 3 girls and Josh was awesome at keeping everyone entertained. When he asked us what we wanted to do, I told him, just do your thing, we’re good with any trip! He did not disappoint!
We saw the inlet up close and got a great rundown of local geography and history. Josh was awesome at pointing out points of interest on land and the water. Then he put us right on the dolphins. We saw so many, we lost count. My kids went bonkers when we spotted some baby dolphins. Being a private tour (the only way to go), Josh was able to get us up close and personal to the dolphins and was very knowledgeable about dolphins in general.
We finished up with a stop to fill our pockets up with shells and our two hours were up before we knew it. Josh had some great commentary on the houses and marinas in the area. His boat handling skills were excellent and he is a very personable guide. Overall, we were all very happy with our tour. When we come back to Ponce, we’re looking him up!
I was in the area back in November and found the backwater fishing trip and thought I would take it. Saw mixed reviews on it and I am really... read more glad I took the chance because it was really amazing. I signed up as a single and was added to a small group. The captain who took us out was patient and very good at finding the fish. We had 2 folks that had never fished before and he was amazing as to how he instructed them and they had a blast. We were out 4 hours on a beautiful day and caught trout, whiting's, grunts, among other types of fish. The boat had all the gear you needed along with a nice cover to keep the sun off of you. You just bring water and snacks if needed. The captain cleaned the keepers and gave it to us. Our group took the fish to the restaurant next door who cooked it up for us. I will definitely do this again when I am back down in the area.
I always have to include nature in my vacations so this group was a good choice. The manatees are not that visible or active in the area yet, better a... read more little later in the year, but still we saw a couple as they came up for air. The dophins were popping up all around us, mostly at a distance, but a few times they were closer so we could see them beautifully as they surfaced. The boat was quite comfortable, not crowded and well shaded with great commentary.

Being from CT when it hit 75 degrees and raining Captain John had to put his raincoat on and my son and I had alot of fun razzing him.

First off, you have a real treasure in Captain John! He was awesome, funny, informative, he was great with my 2 and 7 year old! He MADE our... read more trip! We did the two hour private charter for backwater fishing and it was fun!
We started off by applying sunscreen to my son which “burned” his eyes. John immediately swung over to a sand bar and told Aiden to Cannonball off the boat and swim for a bit to clean his eyes.
He then took us to his secret spot where we caught 4 different species of fish. Without batting an eye made sure everyone was having a great time even the two year old when she got fussy. We never waited to have baited hooks and he didn’t say a word when I caught a few “ tree bass”.
We ended our two hours with sand dollar hunting on a sand bar. He even rushed us back to dock so we could beat a storm that was rolling in.
This trip was amazing and a heck of a value compared to ever other charter service I priced out. You can’t go wrong with these people!
Thank you again, we are already planning our next trip for next year!
