Sailing a boat calls for quick action, a blending of feeling with the wind and water as well as with the very heart and soul of the boat itself. Sailing teaches alertness and courage, and gives in return a joyousness and peace that but few sports afford.

READ OUR 5-STAR REVIEWS

Booked the day before for something fun for the wife and myself. Boat and crew were awesome! So much room. Easy instruction from staff, great equipment provided to us. I actually took a break from fishing! Will definitely book again with more family. Thanks guys for a great time.

The sunset dolphin tour was the best $35 I’ve ever spent! We saw some dolphins, a beautiful sunset, and got to touch some starfish and grab some little fishies in the “touch tank”! Definitely recommend for little kids, but at the age of 20 I still had an absolute blast. 10/10 recommended.

Best fishing trip I have ever been on. Captain Jason is amazing! Thank you for all you did Captain Jason to make this a great trip for my son's 18th birthday and high school graduation celebration. I recommend booking a fishing trip with a Captain Jason 100%!!

It was super fun trip. About 30 fish were caught and all beautiful keepers and the costumer service was quick within 30 seconds of having a fish on the line. A deck hand was there to help. Although you may not catch a large fish you will still have a great time with friends and family!

Port Aransas Reviews

March, 2024

overall experience with Jon was AMAZING. his communication was 10/10. a friend was stuck in traffic and he was very accommodating to our small situation. once we started our rental, he was very knowledgeable on every detail we asked. his boating skills were 10/10. he even brought us to a spot to see some dolphins! it was amazing! the water was so calm so the cruise was very chill, everything was perfect. we definitely will be booking again VERY soon!

April, 2023

We were visiting Corpus Christi for a bachelorette weekend and wanted to spend a day on a boat. Captain Mike exceeded our expectations and the time we spent on his boat was the highlight of our trip! The boat was clean and had everything we needed. Captain Mike was great with communication and made sure we got the best of our experience. We will definitely be seeing Captain Mike again!!

March, 2022

If you are hesitant about booking, let me do you a favor and tell you to just book now! This was the most incredible boating experience I've had in Corpus Christi. Captain Mike made our experience absolutely unforgettable! He goes above and beyond with his hospitality, knowledge of the area, and great attitude. We booked for my friends birthday and loved every second of our boating experience. There were 9 of us total and the boat was very comfortable. Having the kitchen and toilet facilities on board made it so easy to prepare snacks and food for the party. Captain Mike showed us Corpus Christi from a unique, beautiful perspective. I'll be talking about this with my friends and family for the next few months and recommending this experience to everyone I know!

August, 2021

Oh we came for our anniversary and it was amazing! He was very polite. Provides things we needed. Went over and beyond. Wasn’t worried about time. Made sure we had a great time. When I come back I’m using Mike ! I would give 10 stars.

Robert was absolutely amazing! This was the best yacht cruise I’ve ever been on! Robert and his assistant were knowledgeable about the areas and made sure we were safe and had the best time for our bachelorette trip! We can’t wait to visit again! We’d absolutely recommend Robert’s boat to everyone!

March, 2021

Capt. Jon went ABOVE & BEYOND our expectations! First of all, his communication was EXCELLENT!! He touched base multiple times before the trip. Also, he allowed me to bring my dogs, as we were traveling from out of state. He "tutored" us on how to fish in these waters, supplied the gear and the bait, and constantly kept an eye on us. He knew exactly where to go to find the fish and made sure that we reached our limit for the day. When we came in from fishing, he cleaned and bagged all the fish for us. He also took photos throughout the day and sent them to be later. My husband and I (and the dogs) HIGHLY RECOMMEND Capt. Jon. We would love to go out with him again.
