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.

    2 h

  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.

  • 5Best boat day due to the best captain- THANK YOU CAPTAIN ED

    Had the most amazing time with my girl friends for my bachelorette. So thankful for captain Ed, he made our trip a breeze by directing us where we could pack, helping us carry our cooler, offering to take our photos for us, and showing us how to look for sand dollar. Captain Ed was the best part of our boating experience.

About Clearwater

Clearwater, on Florida's Gulf coast, is a beach town on a barrier island of white sand and warm shallow water, close to Tampa Bay.

Clearwater Beach is on a barrier island reached by causeway from the mainland city of Clearwater, west of Tampa on Florida's Gulf coast. Its fine white sand slopes gently into warm, shallow water. Pier 60, at the heart of the beach, holds an evening sunset celebration with street performers and craft stalls, and a nearby marine rescue centre cares for dolphins and sea turtles.
