My friend and I scheduled a very last minute boat trip with 2 Blondes and Captain Rickey and they exceeded all of our expectations. They were prompt with their communication and willing to fit us despite us having given them short notice. We had a wonderful time on the boat! Captain Rickey was awesome and had a great eye for pointing out ocean wildlife. We saw a dolphin and a pod of rays that could have easily been overlooked. He even stopped and turned around to ensure we got to see it up close and personal. I would recommend this boat and captain to a friend!

2 Blondes Boat owners were very responsive via chat and quickly found a Captain for our last minute boat trip. Their boat was in good condition and had lots of room for our family of 8, ranging from young kids to grandparents. The transition to communicate with Captain Jon was seamless. He was very responsive to my texts and arrived on time. His warm hospitality and enthusiasm for the sea was delightful. Throughout our journey to Beer Can Island and back, Captain Jon was engaged with our family and we had a great experience! Captain Jon provided us with ample time to explore the pristine shores and soak in the breathtaking scenery. He even offered insightful recommendations on the best spots to explore, ensuring that we made the most of our time on the island! Thank you, Captain Jon & 2 Blondes Boat Owners for an unforgettable boating experience! My family will cherish the memories for years to come!

Such a great day on the water. Excellent communication from start to finish. Beautiful boat with an excellent Captain. Couldn’t ask for a better experience for our family of 5. Thanks for a great day of spotting dolphins & creepy crabs, exploring the area, and making memories.

We had a great time on the waters going around the AMI area. Captain Mark was extremely insightful and he felt like part of our family shortly into the guided boating day. I would highly recommend this to anyone who wants to spend a few hours on the waters while visiting the AMI. Captain Mark was so accommodating too as we made the reservations pretty last minute. We will definitely hit up Captain Mark the next time we are in the area.

Boat was super clean, exactly as described and on time. Crysten’s communication was quick, thorough and she was great to work with us, especially with all the uncertainty coming in right after Hurricane Ian. I can’t recommend booking with her enough, our boat time was one of the highlights of our visit and she made it happen for us! We worked with Captain Marc, and ended up hiring him last minute for our family’s day out vs driving ourselves. We were so glad we did, it was relaxing and fun for all of us (ages 10-70 and everything in between!) He was knowledgeable about everything from the land, sea, boat, wildlife, and history of the area. We had some special requests of things we wanted on board, things we wanted to see, and needed assistance boarding/getting off the boat and he accommodated, with a smile. Marc gave us an amazing trip out to Egmont Key, Passage Key, and around the area. When we come back, we will call Crysten and Marc again!
