A Boat Day offers private, customized half-day and full-day boat charters for small groups of up to 8 passengers. Sit back and relax on the very comfortable, 25 foot double-decker Funship as you cruise the waterways with a Captain as your guide. Your boating adventure will get you up close to wild dolphins and take you to secluded barrier islands so you can go shelling on pristine beaches or swim in the Gulf of Mexico. Our private boat charters are perfect for family outings, birthdays, anniversaries, graduations, bachelor(ette) parties, marriage proposals, romantic getaways, reunions, spreading ashes, or any other reason!
Your BOAT DAY starts with a safety briefing, then it's time to cast off! Your trip will typically take you north of Clearwater Beach to our beautiful barrier islands including Caladesi Island, Honeymoon Island and Three Rooker Sand Bar. Along the way it is very likely that we will see dolphins. We may also see manatees, sea turtles, rays, Ospreys, native birds or other local wildlife. As your BOAT DAY continues, it is common for guests to get off the boat and go swimming and snorkeling, or shelling and exploring on our beautiful islands. Afternoon and evening tours can include watching the sun set from the boat, over the Gulf of Mexico. All guests will enjoy a cooler with complimentary bottled water, Big Joe water floats and mesh shell bags.
One of the few untouched islands along the Gulf Coast, Caladesi Island State Park is accessible only by boat, but is worth the extra effort.
One of Florida’s best-loved state parks, Honeymoon Island has more than four miles of beach to explore along with a three-mile trail through one of the last remaining virgin slash pine forests.
Three-Rooker Baris a small, semicircular island that has emerged within the last decade. The fact that sand has been accumulating at this location while erosion has occurred at other locations demonstrates the complexity of the coastal processes at work on the West-Central Florida coast. As the island emerged, it quickly became vegetated, increasing its stability.
Laid-back Clearwater Beach is known for its namesake stretch of soft, white sand, which draws visitors year-round for jet-skiing, parasailing, and stand-up paddle boarding in its calm waters.

We had the most wonderful time with Capitan Eric! We were a group of 9 and went on a 4 hour ride as part of a Bachelorette trip. We saw dolphins, beautiful houses and stopped by a sandbar for a bit to go swimming. Capitan Eric had a larger cooler for us which was a great and we played music from our phone through the boat speaker. If you are a larger party we took turns being in the sun and undercover to even out the weight on the boat. Dress accordingly if it's a windy day :D Thank you Captain Eric!!
Wow! Thank you so much for the fabulous review! It sounds like your large group had the perfect time celebrating an epic bachelorette party on the water. We are so glad Captain Eric was able to make it a memorable experience for everyone involved. We look forward to celebrating with you again in the near future.
It was perfect. Info made us well prepared, meeting location was convenient, Captain Frank was personable, informative, accommodating and a great guide. Overall a great way to spend an afternoon.
We are so happy you had the perfect trip with us Nadia! Captain Frank is an awesome tour guide and we are glad he made your boat trip a good one. Thank you for the great review and we hope you will join us again soon!
My family and friends had an amazing time. Captain Matt is the best, he is very fun. If you want to have a great time choose Matt to be your captain.
Captain Matt is so fun! So glad to hear you had an amazing time! Come back and see us next time you are in the Clearwater area!
Captain Marcus was fantastic. He is infinitely patient with the inebriated elderly clientele. He put together a great experience where we did it all!! We saw Dolphins, went swimming, shelling, seaweed harvesting and dancing! If you want a fun day on the water book this trip and ask for Captain Honey Bun!
Sounds like a fun and eventful trip! So glad Captain Honey Bun was able to make your day special, we think he is pretty great too! Come back and see us again for your next adventure!
Steve was patient, flexible, and very funny! He knew where to find the dolphins and our day was amazing! So nice to be on a smaller boat than with hundreds of people!
We agree private custom boat charters are the way to go for sure! So glad Captain Steve was able to make your day a great one!
Captain Frankie was a great captain & guide! This was the highlight of our trip! We would definitely do this again.
So glad Captain Frankie, was able to make your trip with us a memorable one! We hope to see you again soon!
Even though the sun didn't show, Capt. Matt made sure our family had a great time out on the Avalon double-decker pontoon! We had a last minute reschedule request due to potential weather (our decision) -- Jordan, our A Boat Day contact, was great to work with and wanted to ensure our happiness on our boat day. Capt. Matt picked us up at the marina, went over some housekeeping rules and we were off! The double-decker pontoon was amazing! My boys went up top to check things out and we were all excited to try the slide. We didn't have a particular agenda; Capt. Matt had great suggestions -- first stop was a sand bar/island for shelling. Along the ride, Capt. Matt slowed down to tell/show us a few marvels. We were at the island for 45 min.-1 hr., then we pulled off from the shallow water to use the slide! So fun! Before hitting another island, Capt. Matt gave us our own Dolphin Experience! He revved the motors to make big wakes and then all we saw were dolphins jumping and playing in the waves! We have teenagers and they were even oooh-ing and aaah-ing! One more island hop for some magnificent shells and then a relaxing ride back to the marina. A great day! Capt. Matt was the best! We will definitely be repeat customers! Thank you A Boat Day!
Wow sounds like a really fun action packed day! Island Hopping, Shelling, Dolphin Watching and Sliding! It sounds like Captain Matt was able to show you all the best of the Clearwater area! Thank you for sharing and we hope you will be back to see us soon!
We enjoyed a relaxing day in the sun with Capt Frank... He's very fun, professional and informative about the area. We enjoyed the sights - including tons of dolphins (some even came and played in our wake.). We stopped at a couple of islands to beachcomb... A Very Enjoyable Day on the Water!
Hey Mandi, we are thrilled to hear about your enjoyable Boat Day! The Dolphins here never cease to disappoint. Captain Frank is a great asset indeed and we hope to see you on your next vacation, as there is always more to see.
