My kids 22 and 18 had a great time. The employees were helpful and equipment was in great condition. The guide/instructor was great. There was a large area for them to jet ski in.

I took my family to Ocean City and my grandson wanted to go fishing and my daughter and granddaughter wanted to go jet skiing. Bay Back Adventures offered both.
I went fishing with my grandson and we had a terrific morning in the bay we, caught fish, and enjoyed a wonderful morning.
We signed up for my daughter and granddaughter to go jet skiing the next day. Easy!!!!!
Next morning we arrived and my daughter (who has been ill for 5 years and unable to do anything like this)was ready willing, excited to go!!. Off they went and while she only lasted an hour rather than the two hours, they brought her and granddaughter back safely and they had an awesome time.
We will be back to go with them again next year!!! I highly recommend the company

The boat was comfortable and the crew went above and beyond to help my grandchildren (two girls 10 and 8) have a great first fishing experience. Unfortunately, we didn't catch any fish, but we had a nice couple of hours on the bay!

Can you keep any fish and what are the regulations

There are size limits on the fish. We mainly fish for flounder and they have to be 17". You do not need a fishing license aboard our headboat. Thanks!

Do you have to book this ahead of time or can you just show up?

Ocean City, MD5 contributions
To ensure you can get a spot we do recommend reservations. Tickets go on sale a week in advance online, over the phone, or in person at our back bay adventures store on 32nd street bayside. As long as you book a day or two in advance you should be fine. Thanks for your inquiry.
do you need licences to go fishing
bbadventures32
Ocean City, MD5 contributions
The boat has a license and that covers everyone fishing on the boat. You do not need a license. Thanks.
