My family and I spent a week on Green Turtle Cay and were fortunate enough to spend 2 days out on the water with Captain Thomas Sawyer. Captain Tom has an incredible amount of knowledge of Green Turtle Cay and all of the surrounding cays in the Abacos. We went island hopping , fishing, diving for lobster and conch and saw the swimming pigs on No Name Cay. Captain Tom was very hands on and made sure everyone , especially the first time visitors to GTC had a memorable experience. When the days wrapped up Captain Tom helped clean and filet whatever we brought back to the dock fpr us. I highly recommend booking Reel Serious Charters if visiting Green Turtle Cay. You won't be disappointed. If I could give it more stars I would!

Thank you Captain Thomas!

Captain Tom is simply the best. He's knowledgeable, a good communicator, and very funny. We took our 7-year-old granddaughter on a pig/ray/starfish/shark hunt, and he treated her like a princess. He was responsive and affable. We could not recommend home more!

We visited Green Turtle Cay and had another great outing with Captain Tom Sawyer and Reel Serious Charters. This was primarilry an island hopping excursion but we mixed in a little bit of everything. We headed south to Mermaid Reef for snorkeling, spent time relaxing at Tahiti Beach on Elbow Cay and at the lagoon between Scotland Cay / Guana Cay. We visited the beach bars on Guana Cay before heading back to Green Turtle Cay and diving for conchs. All around a great day. Captain Tom has all the local knowledge of Abaco to make your time out on the water the best experience. Highly recommend finding the time to get out with him.

Captain Sawyer went above and beyond the two days we spent with him!! He made sure everyone was able to see or do their bucket-list for the trip out on his boat. He was so generous he even helped our family out when the water supply went down brining us fresh water as well as helping my daughter with internet when she was having trouble with online classes. His knowledge of the island and places to go by boat are invaluable. Highly recommend booking with Captain Sawyer!

Cap. Tom was great. Worked hard to make sure we were catching fish. He made our trip fantastic and even putting up with my brother in law Bob. He won't forget us and we definitely won't forget him. Thanks for a fantastic time. Hope to see you again.

One of the best days our family had on a vacation. Caught a huge grouper and the Captain fixed it for our lunch. Snorkeling was great with beautiful reef location. Highly recommend this trip.

Tom was awesome. We did a full day of fishing and a stop at Man Jack. Nabbed a mess of yellow tail snapper and missed some bigger fish. Tom fishes hard and tries to get you n the fish. I would highly recommend him for anything.

Family of 5 (parents and young adults) on a much anticipated trip to Green Turtle Cay. There for 10 days and wanted to spend a bunch of time on the water without renting a boat. The choices there are really between larger group "tours" (snorkeling and island hopping). We decided to adventure as a family with Captain Tom at Reel Serious Charters, and cant say enough about how great it was. The boat is comfortable and fast getting from point to point. Captain Tom is friendly and knowledgeable (we are curious types) and make a great lunch. We were out 4 times to snorkle at different reefs and islands and had an amazing time. Very cost effective too when compared to other providers. All in all, it made our trip.

We did 3 different excursions with Captain Thomas as we weren't very comfortable or confident in our individual boating skills. So glad we did. The first day we fished the reef and caught snapper, mackarel, grouper, barracuda, and missed on several BIG grouper. We had fun and caught fish most of the morning. Then we also visited the swimming pigs and took pictures and even spent an hour snorkelling a reef. GREAT first day with Captain Thomas. Super helpful, friendly, joked with us and we got to know him fairly well. The 2nd day we did with Captain Thomas he brought his daughter along as his 1st Mate. She was delightful and we enjoyed island hopping and checking out the different beaches, shops, lighthouse, and a nice little restaurant at HopeTown, although it was extremely busy that day and took a lot of time to complete our time there, Captain Thomas made sure that time didn't count against us in seeing the islands. A great day. The last day we decided to give it a try at deep sea fishing. It was a beautiful day and Captain Thomas (as well as every other boat we saw out there) was working very hard to find fish, but it was a SLOW DAY and Captain Thomas even told us before we went that it has been very slow, but we wanted to try it, so we went out and he worked very hard to find us fish. After a few hours of working it with no bites, we went back to the reef to fish and immediately started getting hits from big groupers and barracudas. We had enough time to still catch supper for the night, fresh grouper, wow! Captain Thomas is a trustworthy, hard-working friendly man that our whole family quickly became friends with and would think that almost anyone would love to go out on the water with this knowledgable man of integrity. Thanks so much, Captain Thomas, we will definitely hook up you again the next time we are in the Abacos! God Bless!

We had the best time with Capt Thomas. We went island hoping with him and also did a day feeding the pigs and also the stingrays and sharks . He is very professional and we had No Name cay all to ourselves , He also works with the fire department and coaches flag football team .. It seemed like every island we went to people knew him and he was well respected. I would highly recommend spending a day or two with him ,, Thanks Capt Thomas for making our trip to Green Turtle one to remember. Bobby and Melisa
