5.00AMAZING!!!! They were great with reaching out the previous day to confirm and move times because of weather. Rob really really want you to have a great time. The boats were fun and safe. We saw a small dolphin pod in the shallow waters and one more on the way back in. The stop on the island is a fantastic photo op. He shot lots of pics of the entire family. Could not be any nicer of a guy. You need to BOOK NOW!!!
Feel the wind in your hair, wild life views, and a funorific adventure on a Craigcat!

5.00Rob was amazing! He was warm and friendly, providing safety tips, navigating instructions, and information about the area. He made sure we found wildlife like dolphins and manatees, taking photos the entire time. It was a wonderful family outing that we all enjoyed. I recommend the Craigcat tour for everyone. Make great memories!
Cool CraigCat Experience

5.00This was an incredibly fun experience. We have done many different water sports but nothing that quite resembles being at the water level and zipping around on the CraigCat. Rob was an extremely cool and proficient owner/operator. We would do this again and recommend to anyone looking for a fun new experience.

5.00Very unique experience! Our family of six had fun on this tour. Guide and owner of this family business gives clear instructions on driving the boats. We felt safe and confident using them. Seeing the mother and baby dolphins was a highlight. You can get very close to them in these boats. Book this tour!

5.00this was great! my mom and i messaged the phone number listed on the website and they were able to accommodate us perfectly. we had so much fun just being out on the water, but we literally saw 50+ dolphins. i have a three minute video with dolphins consistently poking their fins up every second - it was amazing. our cheeks were hurting from smiling so much. rob was also able to capture pictures of these moments for us which we loved! we even saw a huge ray jump out of the water once we got to the little island. if you don’t book this you are seriously missing out. thanks so much and we will definitely be coming back next time we’re in town!
10 out of 10 recommend!!!

5.00If I could give 10 stars, I absolutely would! We had an amazing time driving our own boats and exploring the beautiful water. Rob made sure we saw both dolphins and manatees, which my daughters were so excited about! One of my favorite parts was hanging out on Beer Can Island, searching for shells and enjoying the crystal-clear water — I found some amazing ones. My husband enjoyed driving the boat and learning all about the islands from Rob. This was easily the highlight of our entire week, and we’re already looking forward to coming back next year!
Amazing experience

5.00Amazing! Don’t go to Anna Maria without doing this. It’s so much fun. We were a few feet away from dolphins and manatees. I can’t imagine a more enjoyable way to see them
Great day in the water.
