  • Took my second trip with Dave and I have to say this is the best way to have fun in south florida! We hit the bars and the beach and it was great! We we had a group of 9 and we had so much fun at whiskey creek, one of the girls had never seen the ocean do we went over the dunes and fixed that. Also got to cruise past the boat show which was INSANE! Would recommend!

We had the absolute time of our lives with Pontoon Party! Captain Juan is phenomenal—seriously, the best! He vibed with us perfectly, made the sandbar party unforgettable, and took care of everything with a smile. Our four-hour cruise was perfect from start to finish, and the whole experience was just top-tier. Five stars without a doubt—if you’re booking, ask for Captain Juan!

Anthony was the literal best! Such a fun time, awesome captain. Kept us safe and upbeat. ON TOP OF THAT, our bride dropped her engagement ring IN THE OCEAN and he snorkled around for over 30 minutes until he found it (with plans to come back the next day if we didn’t find it). He found it! He’s our hero! BOOK HIM if you want the best time ever.
