We chartered a boat for a 7 hour trip with Captain David on the Good Times. He was very professional and friendly. NOTE: He quoted us a cheaper rate on the phone than was advertised when we got there & they gave us the cheaper rate (saved us $20/ hour). Calling ahead may save you some $$$. We have 5... more

My family took a snorkel cruise on Pelican Adventures and was greatly disappointed. The boat brought us to the jetties which is a location we could have gotten to by land. I thought we would go to multiple sites, but it went to only one. Also it was not possible for anyone to stay on the boat, because it left... more

First of all, keep in mind that Pelican Adventures and the other similar outfits offer several different services. We paid for their snorkeling trip. I am not reviewing their fishing trips or anything other than the snorkeling trip. The staff: very friendly, they did a great job The trip: less than impressive. They took us to the jetties, which are... more

Upon calling around before we made a final choice. Pelican Adventures had the most knowledge, they answered all my questions and were friendly. She also assured us that the gear we were to use was sanitized and clean. Something the others failed to even mention to us. The others I called were all answered by teenagers they were not helpful... more

Our trip was changed on the morning of to a deep sea fishing trip for four with "one" captain who was only 21and... more
