Highlight of our trip!

This was the highlight of our trip to Clearwater. Our Captain, Remi, was awesome! He was very communicative prior to leaving for the trip, ensuring we had everything we would need. Once on the boat, he made sure we had the best experience and listened to what was important to us. We wanted to see wildlife, snorkel, and find shells. Obviously he can't control what wildlife we see, but once we arrived at each island he pointed out the areas that would be best for snorkeling, best to find shells, and best spots to see dolphins and manatees. He was spot on. We saw several dolphins and manatees just feet away from us. While snorkeling we saw so many fish, stingrays, and crabs. The kids also enjoyed collecting shells. An unexpected bonus was his knowledge of the area. We have spent a lot of time in Clearwater and we learned so many new things. We will be back next time we are in Clearwater!

Fantastic!

We booked a 4 hour, private boat tour with Reel Runner Gulf Adventures for a group of six adults. Everything about the tour from start to finish was excellent! Communication with the tour owner/staff was very clear and consistent from beginning to end. They went above and beyond to ensure a great, customized experience for our group. Our guide, Captain Remi, was AWESOME!!! It was clear his main priority was for our group to have the best time possible, and we did! He was extremely knowledgeable and shared details along the tour route. He also provided a cooler full of ice, amazing non-stop music, and great conversation. We are definitely looking forward to future sailing with Reel Runner Gulf Adventures, and Captain Remi.

The perfect day!

The absolute perfect day! We saw tons of dolphins, Remy even got them to jump the wake behind the boat! The islands were beautiful, we found beautiful shells. Remy was the perfect captain, we’ve claimed him as an honorary family member;) He’s so knowledgeable and personable. Definitely the highlight of our trip!
