We received no support when an unforeseen issue arose

1.00We did not get to have the experience, as customer support failed to respond to us; due to the location, we ended up running 5 to 7 minutes late. We sent messages and placed calls, but received no response. When we arrived, the boat was no longer there. If you have a group of 8 people who fail to show up, the very least you should do is make a phone call to check on them. We feel we were treated unfairly and received absolutely no support.
Laid back Crab Island Trip

5.00This is a big pontoon-style boat, partially shaded, with a restroom. It has long benches down each side and some benches in the middle too. It brings a bunch of people out to the sandbar for four hours. They provided a shark and tube floaties, some noodles, and a lilly pad. They played music. They parked near a bbq restaurant boat. Justin and Patrick did a great job. It was a chill, laid back experience. You bring your own food/drinks and they have a cooler and garbages. The only downside is that the boat isn't ideal for lounging. However, you could bring floating lounge chairs and enjoy it that way, if you had them. It was cooler and windy when we went. The kids took awhile to get in the water but then had a lot of fun! My husband and I mostly enjoyed chilling in partial shade, listening to music and not having to entertain our kids. We'd do it again.
Wonderful

5.00Great experience. Fun! Diffferentbtypes of floaters that you can actually sit on would be a nice option but still fun with the big floating mat. Hosts were great and played all our music requests.
Loved it- recommend!!

4.00The crew was outstanding and so hospitable. They offered to take photos for each group, connected us with vendors, and handed out beverages we’d brought so we didn’t have to get on and off the boat. The music was awesome and added so much to the vibe of the day! We’d have liked a few more floats but overall the day was so memorable and fun! Recommend these guys for sure!!
Def will book again!

5.00Dawson and Patrick (AJ lol) were awesome! They took care of us and made sure we were having fun and taken care of! There were just 3 of us so we chose this so we could be with a larger group. The people we met were a lot of fun too! We will definitely do this charter again.
Hopefully get next tomorrow’s time so we still get to go
