Best Boat Ride in Sarasota - We always have a great time water with Captain Aaron. You can't go wrong with choosing a sunset cruise or a trip to midnight pass and swimming at the beach. My kids (2 & $) love him and always ask when we can go out on the boat next. He takes the kids to find crabs and shark teeth on the beach and manatees and dolphins on the boat. He's very knowledgable on the area and plays great tunes on the boat! This is a must do if you're in the area.

A great way to discover hidden beauty - Start to finish it was the best 2 hours or out holiday by far. Captain Aaron was the best host, he found Dolphins and got them to follow us like the pied piper. We found Manatees aswell all mixed in with some fabulous views of some spectacular real estate owned by the rich and famous. Aaron was polite, knowledgeable and made us feel both relaxed and very safe. We drove from kissimmee (nearly 2hrs) but absolutely worth it . Make a day of it and try the nearby Myakka Elephant ranch .

He was so patient and... - He was so patient and kind with our kiddos! He also had so much information to share with us, and as a homeschooling family, it was the perfect "field trip" for our vacation! He was someone who truly cared about the experience you got, and I would for sure spend the money and time to do it again!

Fantastic Luxury Boat Charter in Siesta Key - We booked a 3 hour charter with Aaron after reading all of the positive reviews and we were not disappointed. It was fantastic and worth every penny. Aaron was friendly, welcoming and knowledgeable. He made sure our family (2 adults, 2 young daughters age 6 and 3) were all comfortable before we set off. The boat is really clean and well equipped, with luxury comfortable seats and a small toilet just in case you need it. Once we were all on board we headed out to look for dolphins and enjoy the water. Aaron was amazing at spotting the wildlife, slowing the boat down to make sure we all got a great view and experience. We saw loads of dolphins playing and Aaron encouraged them to swim and play in the waves at the back of the boat. We also saw manatees and even a small Bonnethead Shark. We stopped at a beautiful sandbar to swim and explore, finding clams, sea snails, sea urchin and lots of beautiful shells. Aaron was really kind and helped our 6 year old to explore. The whole family loved the experience and I would highly recommend booking. Next time we’re in Siesta Key we will definitely book again.

Dolphins and Manatees, Oh My! - We had such an amazing time with Aaron! We saw sooooo many dolphins, including a baby and one manatee! Aaron knew how to make the dolphins follow the wake of the boat and do jumps. We took the 4 pm boat ride.

Jumping dolphins!! - Great Trip! Captain Aaron was super friendly and knowledgeable of the area. He knew exactly where the dolphins and manatees would be and even got the dolphins to jump out of the water behind our boat. It was a such a cool experience with great memories made! Also, his boat was super comfy with both shade and sun spots depending on your preference. Highly recommended.

Excellent - The ride was wonderful. My parents came from Brazil we have a good time together and Captain Aaron was excellent knowing the region well and giving us a good direction of the tour and we were able to see the dolphin playing in the waves that the boat makes 🤗
