We had a great time out at sea and saw a Whale and caught lots of great tasting fish. The Captain and crew were very helpful and great with caring about the ocean and it's creatures and not overfishing or damaging the wildlife. Would definitely recommend and especially for children.

Great Trip
4 Hour Morning Light Tackle Seafari - 1:30 PM on December 23, 2025 β€’ 8 adults
initial dissapoint was when the captain call in the morning and said the trip is cancelled due to crew being sick. I asked if he could get a stand in and he eventually got someone. We were excited once again, and the trip was awesome, we were 10 on the boat and each caught a fish, although we had to share Rods it was fun and a pleasent experiance for all
