We had such a great time with John! He was super flexible, laid back, funny, and personable, which made the whole day feel so easy and fun. The boat was really clean and had plenty of space, storage, and little tables for us to use. He had SO many things included too. We had a floating mat, little floaties to sit on in the sun, a paddleboard, snorkel gear, a cooler with ice, and he even grilled the hot dogs and hamburgers we brought with us. It honestly felt like everything was already taken care of. We did four hours, which felt like the perfect amount of time. We got some sun, relaxed in the shade, cruised around, and even looked for dolphins. It was fun and relaxing at the same time, which was exactly what we wanted for a bachelorette day. I would definitely recommend booking with John! He includes so much and there were no surprise extra charges. He was trustworthy, easy to hang out with, and just made the whole experience really enjoyable. Such a fun day and the perfect little boat charter!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 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 a fantastic day on Ameer’s boat and sincerely thank him. The boat, dock location, mat and cooler were fantastic and Ameer and his son were fantastic hosts. We had a super day visiting honeymoon island. The boat was super well kept and equipped for our day. We’ll be back next year ☺️

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!

Captain John is one of the best! I've been on many boat trips with captains and he can't be beat. He is personable, knowledgable, friendly, and helpful. We were able to float and relax while he cooked up the food we brought, and told us to not lift a finger! He set up all the water toys and we just had so much fun. Will definitely be booking with him again!
