Full day offshore with Captain Richard
Full day offshore on July 23, 2025
Our kids had an absolute blast!! Not only was Captain Richard knowledgeable of the area, but safety was a top priority. I highly recommend booking a trip with Zookeeper Charters. Perfect for a family day trip, we look forward to another trip soon!
