We had the best time on our charter today with Captain Rizwan! From start to finish, he was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly friendly. He made everyone feel comfortable and ensured we had a fun and safe experience on the water. The boat was in great condition, and Captain Rizwan knew all the best spots. We couldn’t have asked for a better day! Thank you for the unforgettable memories! Highly recommend!
