Half-Day Private Boating On Buccaneer Funship - Clearwater Beach

Highlights

Inclusions

Itinerary

1. Your BOAT DAY starts with a safety briefing, then it's time to cast off! Your trip will typically take you north of Clearwater Beach to our beautiful barrier islands including Caladesi Island, Honeymoon Island and Three Rooker Sand Bar. Along the way it is very likely that we will see dolphins.    We may also see manatees, sea turtles, rays, Ospreys, native birds or other local wildlife.  As your BOAT DAY continues, it is common for guests to get off the boat and go swimming and snorkeling, or shelling and exploring on our beautiful islands.  Afternoon and evening tours can include watching the sun set from the boat, over the Gulf of Mexico. All guests will enjoy a cooler with complimentary bottled water, Big Joe water floats and mesh shell bags.

   10 min

2. One of the few untouched islands along the Gulf Coast, Caladesi Island State Park is accessible only by boat, but is worth the extra effort.

   30 minAdmission included

3. One of Florida’s best-loved state parks, Honeymoon Island has more than four miles of beach to explore along with a three-mile trail through one of the last remaining virgin slash pine forests.

   30 min

4. Three-Rooker Baris a small, semicircular island that has emerged within the last decade. The fact that sand has been accumulating at this location while erosion has occurred at other locations demonstrates the complexity of the coastal processes at work on the West-Central Florida coast. As the island emerged, it quickly became vegetated, increasing its stability.

5. Laid-back Clearwater Beach is known for its namesake stretch of soft, white sand, which draws visitors year-round for jet-skiing, parasailing, and stand-up paddle boarding in its calm waters.

• 5Family Fun Boat Day

  ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Exceptional Family Experience with Captain BJ This was our second time out on the water with Captain BJ, and once again, she delivered an exceptional experience for our family. From start to finish, everything was handled with professionalism, care, and attention to detail. Captain BJ has a natural ability to create an environment that is both safe and enjoyable, making everyone feel comfortable the moment you step on board. Her knowledge of the area, patience, and genuine passion for what she does truly set her apart. Traveling with children can sometimes be challenging, but she made the entire experience seamless and memorable for all of us. The day was perfectly paced, relaxing, and filled with moments our family will cherish for years to come. It says a lot that we chose to book with her again—and after this second amazing experience, it certainly won’t be our last. If you’re looking for a top-tier, family-friendly boating experience, we highly recommend Captain BJ. You will not be disappointed.

• 5Another Amazing Day with Captain BJ

  This was our second tour with Captain BJ, and it was just as amazing as the first! She is caring, friendly, incredibly knowledgeable, and took us to several beautiful spots around North Honeymoon Island where our family found so many incredible seashells while learning about the different types along the way. We always leave with wonderful memories and can’t wait to book our next adventure with Captain BJ for even more shelling opportunities!

• 5Wonderful experience with great captains

  We reserved two boats for a private trip to celebrate a bachelorette party. Our Captains were Michael and Steve and they were both fantastic. We went to a secluded beach where we could swim, visit, and shell. They also took us to a very chill and delicious lunch spot. But by far the best part was when they found a pod of dolphins and encouraged them to basically chase our wake along the Clearwater shoreline. It was so epic and amazing! Everyone talked about how much we enjoyed our once in a lifetime experience with A Boat Day!
