Super fun family activity! - We’ve been out in the backwater on different boats over the past seven years and I’ve seen these little boats zooming by and always wondered what they were all about. Looked into them this year, learned about them, signed up and now it will be an annual tradition. Super fun, super safe and super great local owners and team running the show! Thanks Connor and Eric!

Fun, exciting and educational! CraigCats, Dolphins and a FANTASTIC guide made for a fun day. - First and foremost Eric the guide is amazing. Can you imagine loving your job as much as this guy does? The tour was fantastic. Saw a lot of beautiful wildlife in their natural surroundings. Eric did a great job explaining what we would and did see and also gave some background on the area. Dolphins were playing and coming right up to our boats! Kids loved it. The CraigCats are in great shape and so much fun. There were three families of friends on this expedition and we all had a blast. Highly, highly, highly recommend!

Fun on the water! - What a great way to get out on the water and take in beautiful views of the mangroves. Tyler was a great guide. He made sure nobody was falling too far behind, but still allowed us to go fast and enjoy the exhilarating ride. He also gave us time to idle and watch dolphins at play. These Craig cats are a lot of fun to maneuver. It does take a minute or two to get the hang of it. We did the 2 1/2 hour tour with a stop at an island to do a little shelling and stretch our legs. It also allows the other passenger to take over as driver. Make sure you look at their website to get the right address. You board the boats at the Little Bar on Goodland. The address on TripAdvisor in Google is not correct. Highly recommend!

Fast 2 seater boats, expect to get wet, wear lots of sunscreen, shell, & don't get your hopes up to see birds/dolphins/manatees. - If you want a fast & wet boat ride, see a few birds, see a few dolphin fins for a few seconds, shell at an island for 25 minutes then book this today! The tour guide was very nice and friendly. Two adults in one boat was around $340. We took the 2 1/2 tour with the Craig boats. My husband usually drives a bass boat and truly enjoyed driving the Craig Boats. They went a lot faster than he thought they would. The brochures/website show amazing photos of dolphins swimming near the boats, I wish we had experienced that encounter. However we only saw one fin for a few seconds, we are invading their home and they just didn't want to come out to play. This adventure isn't a Disney ride where you can expect to see a ton of animals and if that is what you are hoping for, I'd skip this adventure. However if you like to ride in fast boats, don't mind getting wet, looking for shells at an island that is away from the general public (for around 25 minutes), and having a friendly tour guide, then book this tour right now! I do wish our guide offered to take a photo of us in the boat. I took photos of the other boats who were on our tour, but unfortunately we did not get a photo of us inside a boat.
