Fun afternoon out on the water - Great to go out on a boat, see dolphins and dock on a sandbar in the middle of the Gulf to see living sand dollars and all sorts of hermit crabs. Relaxing fun afternoon. My son loved the snorkel gear and jumping off the boat!

Dolphins & Shell Fish - Nice experience, the sandbar is not full of fish, you may see a few, however the alive shellfish we found were the Stars of the Show, snaps in hermit crab shells as well as a few fiesty hermit crabs and we found a few live conch's too as well as seeing the local Dolphins that was cool too!!!

Jewfish Key Sandbar fun - Captain Mike and Susan were absolutely top-notch! I’m visiting from Virginia and staying with a friend in Parrish, and we had an amazing time. We saw so many manatees, dolphins, and beautiful shells. Captain Mike and Susan made us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. Thank you for such a memorable experience—we highly recommend this tour!

Nice experience - You get on a boat, the operator tries to find dolphins or manatees, shortly after he takes you to a sand bar to snorkel and by. Water is only waist deep at the most. We found shells. The ladder to get in and out of the boat was a little hard to use. Overall the boat was comfortable and the operator was friendly.
