Mangrove Explorers 

Ryan was so much more than what could be advertised! Gave us exactly the experience we were looking for, caught tons of fish (including a redfish that made an excellent supper!) and had an island stop. Furthermore, Ryan is quite the historian about the local area, you will learn things you would’ve never known about the area, natural and human history. Mangrove Explorers does any other kind of outdoor adventures in the area as well if you’re looking for that. Will definitely book again

We had such a great experience! The guide was very knowledgeable, had a nice and clean boat, took us to several spots, privided lots of history of the area, and we caught some nice fish.

Captain Ryan was friendly, patient and knowledgeable with the fishing spots as well as the history. Our family enjoyed catching the many different species of fish. We also enjoyed learning the history!

Captain Ryan was great! So good with my son to get him catching some fish and entertaining my daughter who quit fishing after her first one.

Everything was great, captain, boat, equipment, & fishing. Would book this trip again.

Ryan, was an excellent guide, very knowledgeable and great with my 11 year old son. Knows a lot about the history of the area and shared it with us. Interesting stories and a little history lesson to boot. He was able to get us on fish even though we were fighting really low tide conditions. I would book with him ( and Will on our next trip) and would highly recommend you do too. Thanks for a memorable day..

Fishing was a blast! Very family friendly: he brought bottled water and bags of chips for the kids. He was very knowledgeable about the waters, but what was more important was that Captain Boets was down to earth, a history buff, and easy to talk to. Time flew by with him, he answered any questions we had, and it was a laid back trip. Definitely would recommend!

We had an amazing fishing trip in Naples with Captain Ryan! From the moment we stepped on the boat, he took great care of me and my family and made sure everyone felt comfortable and had a fantastic time. The fishing was excellent – we caught a lot of fish and had action throughout the trip. One of the highlights was spending time cruising alongside dolphins, which made the experience even more special for the whole family. Captain Ryan is knowledgeable, professional, friendly, and genuinely passionate about what he does. He worked hard to put us on fish and made sure we had a memorable day on the water. If you’re looking for a great fishing charter in Naples, I highly recommend Captain Ryan. We would book with him again anytime. Awesome guy, awesome trip, and unforgettable memories. Five stars!

Hands down one of the best family experiences we’ve had! Our guide was beyond friendly, incredibly patient with our kids. He worked nonstop chasing fish. On top of that, he shared amazing stories and history about the area and taught us so much about the local wildlife,it added SO much more to the trip than we expected. His knowledge and passion really shine. Highly, highly recommend-especially for families with kids!

(4 hours morning trip). Nice, comfortable boat, beautiful scenery, Capt. Ryan knew a ton of local history and put us on a ton of fish! Would book with him again in a heartbeat!
