The beautiful Boca Ciega Bay, extending for more than 35 miles, is a wildlife habitat for natural exploration of islands, dolphins, manatees and an array of birds. There is an adventure right off our docks! Experience the natural beauty of white sandy beaches at Caladesi Island State Park, Honeymoon Island, Three Rooker Island to the north or Fort De Soto State Park, Shell Island to the south. These beaches are consistently rated some of America’s best!
Only accessible by boat, Caladesi Island is about 75 minutes away from shore. There, you can enjoy swimming, sunbathing, picnicking and fishing. Caladesi Island is a world away from the crowds, allowing you to peacefully explore for seashells, armadillos, sea turtles, and lots of birds. The island has its own docking with restrooms, picnic tables and grills, pavilions and even a small cafe! It truly is PARADISE!
Boating adventures are made perfect by our large Hurricane deck boats, allowing our customers to explore the Gulf of Mexico up to three miles out into the open water as well as the bay. All Hurricane boats have state-of-the-art features – Yamaha four stroke engines from 150HP up to 250HP with stainless steel props, hydraulic steering, large full fuel tanks, Garmin GPS chart plotter navigation, depth finder, surround sound stereo system, cooler, and some have built-in bathrooms as well. These high end adventure craft boats will not disappoint any boat enthusiast. Ranging from 19 to 24 feet long, these large sea-worthy deck boats can hold up to 10 people.
You'll never need to worry about being lost as your entire trip will safely be monitored through our GPS tracking systems available on all boats. This advanced feature constantly relays your updated location to our office so we can immediately respond in case you need our assistance. This is our way to ensure that boating adventures are safe and hassle-free.
We also offer luxurious Avalon and Crest pontoons ranging from 22 to 27 feet. These are equipped with the same awesome features that our Hurricane boats have, including private bathrooms. These large party boats can hold up to 12 people and are wheelchair accessible. Our adventure craft boats are perfect for entertaining friends or spending time with family.
If you're looking for shorter excursions, head out to John’s Pass and encounter lots of dolphins! Cruise through the bird sanctuary, swim off a white sandy beach, or dock at McDonald’s. So fun! You can also sail past Clearwater to get a good view of the mansions on the water, including Hulk Hogan’s former “home”!
Don’t miss the waterfront restaurants where you can enjoy the best creamy crab soup, fresh catch of the day, a grand brunch buffet with mimosas, or just some good homemade ice cream. These restaurants deliver the best!
