Amazing time and awesome service! - We had the best time on Crab Island! We went with Dentin Pontoon Charters and they took great care of us. They had tons of things onboard for families to do during the 3-hours. My husband and I enjoyed paddle boarding while our daughters swam and played on the lillypad floats. The crew also found a seahorse and crabs they caught to let the kids see. We loved our trip and will be going back again sometime!

Great time - We had a great trip out to Crab Island with Captain Justin. The morning time slot was perfect for us with kids - it was less crowded, so we could snorkel easily and had lots of room to swim around. The water is much clearer early on before all the boats start churning up the waters. We also saw several dolphins on the way in. We're would absolutely recommend!
