   ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The most unforgettable 40th birthday, thank you Captain John! What an absolutely incredible experience! We booked a 4 hour sunset cruise in St. Petersburg to celebrate my 40th birthday, and it genuinely turned out to be one of the most memorable afternoons of my life. Captain John was fantastic from the moment we stepped aboard. He showed us around the stunning coastline before taking us out to a beautiful sandbar, where he set up a paddle board, water chairs and a floating water mat for us to enjoy. Being out there, relaxing in the water and taking in the surroundings, was just perfect. And as if that wasn’t enough, while we were enjoying the water, John fired up his BBQ and cooked us hot dogs! Sitting on the boat, eating freshly cooked food after swimming, with the Florida sunshine and coastline around us, was such a simple but brilliant touch. We then finished the trip watching the most incredible sunset from the water. It was absolutely breathtaking and a moment I know I’ll remember forever. What really made the whole experience, though, was Captain John himself. He was such a wonderful, entertaining and welcoming captain and host. He made us feel completely relaxed, looked after us brilliantly and went above and beyond to make this birthday feel genuinely special. John, thank you so much for giving us an afternoon we will cherish forever. We couldn’t have wished for a better way to celebrate a birthday. If you’re considering booking a sunset cruise in St. Petersburg, do it, and book with Captain John! You won’t regret it.

   We had an amazing experience celebrating a birthday aboard Sweet Escape! We booked a 3-hour private charter, and they really went out of their way to insure sure we enjoyed every part of it. When we arrived, Jonas had a Happy Birthday sign waiting for us, along with a beautiful charcuterie platter and sandwich spread ready for us to enjoy. We spent some time sailing with the motors off, relaxing in the water on a floating mat and we even got to try a new activity they had never done on one of their charters before, making our experience even more memorable! The Sweet Escape was beautiful, clean and very comfortable. Jonas and the captain were attentive while also giving us plenty of time and space to enjoy the boat and celebrate together. They did everything they could to make our day enjoyable, special, and amazing. I would absolutely recommend them for anyone looking for a fun, relaxing and personalized private catamaran experience. Thank you, Jonas and Captain, for helping us create such a wonderful birthday memory!

   We just had the best day out on the water with John. The only complaint I have is the time flew way too fast cause we were having that much. Cooked us food, took us to a dock side shop to re up on food and water and had plenty of water toys to mess around with. If you want to go out and the water with a great guy and have a fun time pick John and don’t even think about it. Also super funny with great stories.

   John was an amazing captain during our entire trip. He was friendly, very informative and did a great job grilling our food. He even was able to spot a manatee! We were so excited. We would totally use him again and tell our friends to use him. He was reasonably priced and had a great boat!

   Our private boat excursion was hands-down the highlight of our entire trip! From the moment we stepped on board, Captain Ray made us feel incredibly welcome, safe, and pampered.The boat itself was immaculate, spacious, and very comfortable. The captain knew the absolute best spots to find dolphins, took us to a stunning, secluded spot and timed our cruise perfectly. Captain Ray tailored the entire itinerary to exactly what we wanted to do, never making us feel rushed. Best boat excursion ever!!

   After an unexpected cancelation, I found Frank at the last minute, keep in mind this was on a Saturday evening just hours before my initial scheduled departure for Sunday morning. I was panicking! Frank was quick to respond with availability. I jumped at the opportunity and after about 45 minutes, I had another scheduled boat. We met Frank Sunday morning and he was polite and professional. After the safety briefing we were on our way. The boat was just as described and no complaints! We had a great time, we actually ended up extending for another two hours!! We will definitely use Frank in the future!!
