Got cancelled with no notice

Got cancelled with no notice. Got email to do waivers, but by the time we go to the counter, where they were going into detail rules and regulations for individual pontoon rentals, all they said was that it was cancelled. No prior notice.

Rude Staff

I was disappointed with this excursion as I have experienced better ones in the past. My intention was to enjoy a visit to Crab Island, but the experience was marred by an unprofessional captain. The crew made inappropriate remarks about other guests who arrived a few minutes late getting back on board, yet it was acceptable that we were delayed in departing for Crab Island. While I understand their frustration, professionalism should be maintained at all times. Additionally, there was insufficient time allocated for the visit, and guests were expected to be on board 45 minutes in advance. Overall, I do not believe this excursion was worth it.

Operator response

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re disappointed to hear that your experience did not meet your expectations, and we sincerely apologize for any comments or interactions that came across as unprofessional. We expect our captains and crew to treat every guest with courtesy and respect at all times. Our excursions operate on a set schedule, and departure and return times can occasionally be affected by guest boarding, safety requirements, and conditions on the water. That said, we understand your concern regarding the time spent at Crab Island and appreciate your feedback regarding the boarding timeline. We value your comments and will use them to reinforce our expectations with our team and continue working to provide the enjoyable, professional experience our guests deserve.

Throwing money out the window

A WASTE of MONEY and TIME! Very disappointed that for the price of the tickets you get nothing oh but free water. The inflatable and etc we seen on YouTube wasn't never for the kids. I sent about $219 and I would LOVE all my money back! Traveling almost 6 hours for a waste of time. This Crab Island Excursion isn't worth 40 dollars!

Don't Fall For It, Nothing like the pics

It was horrible. The waternwas full of seaweed and smelled like a sewer. No restrooms nowhere to eat nothing to do. Overpriced food. They let people smoke in the water but not on the boats. So pee poop cigarette butter seaweed algae and all are in this water plus nowhere to throw trash. I will never ever recommend this waste if money. Looks NOTHING like the pics.

Beach weekend didn’t disappoint

Easy to find the marina. Clean boat. Family friendly/party friendly. Best of both worlds. Captain Gary and first mate Bailey were funny, informative, and gave great hospitality to the guest. We got stuck with a little bad weather, but they still made it fun. They took us on a little sightseeing trip before our time was up. They definitely went the extra mile. Couldn’t have asked for a better trip.

First time to crab island...

First time to crab island and it was one of the best experiences EVER. The captain and his crew were wonderful. The boat was clean and we felt safe. We will definitely be back.
