What are the trip styles?
Three: a Crab Island sandbar day, a nearshore fishing trip, or a "best of both" charter that combines the two. Crab Island can run on a pontoon, the Boca, or the Whiskey; fishing and combo trips run on the Boca or the Whiskey.
What’s the difference between the boats?
Our pontoons are sandbar day boats out of Fort Walton Beach. The Boca is a more affordable fishing and Crab Island boat out of Destin Harbor. The Whiskey is our premium option out of Sandestin. Fishing and combo trips are capped at six aboard.
Is the whole boat just for my group?
Yes. Every trip is private — your captain, your boat, and only the people you booked with. Never a shared tour.
What's included on a Crab Island trip?
Your private USCG-licensed captain, a floating lily pad and paddleboards, a Bluetooth speaker, cooler and ice, on-board shade, and life jackets in every size. You bring towels, sunscreen, food and drinks.
What's included on a fishing trip?
Captain and mate, rods, reels, bait, tackle, ice, and fishing licenses for everyone aboard, plus catch cleaning and bagging. Bring drinks, food, and a cooler for your fillets.
How many people can come?
It depends on the boat and the trip. Any fishing trip is capped at 6. For Crab Island, the Whiskey takes up to 12, a pontoon up to 9, and the Boca up to 6.
Where do we meet?
It depends on your boat: pontoons leave from Fort Walton Beach, the Boca from Destin Harbor, and the Whiskey from Sandestin. Your exact dock and meeting time are confirmed when you book.
Are kids and non-swimmers welcome?
Yes. The Crab Island sandbar is shallow and calm, which suits little ones and non-swimmers, and we carry life jackets for all ages. Fishing trips work well for kids too — the mate keeps them on the fish.
What if the weather turns?
Safety comes first. If conditions are unsafe we will help you reschedule or refund per our cancellation policy. Most Gulf Coast showers pass quickly, and your captain will keep you posted.
Can we bring drinks?
Yes — guests 21+ are welcome to bring their own on Crab Island trips. Go with cans or plastic rather than glass, and pack it in a cooler (we supply the ice).
