So much fun!!! Our captain, Irish Dave, was awesome!!!!! Very knowledgeable and informative and funny. I can not recommend this place enough. I've been on airboat rides a number of times, but this is by far the BEST!!!! We saw turtles, birds fish, gators, spider monkeys, and dolphins!!!! Just amazing if I could give more than 5 stars I would. My husband and I had the best time.

I mean, do you like having fun?!? If so this is the place. Captain ‘Irish Dave’ and scallop master ‘Nat’ showed me and my family the perfect scallop adventure and the perfect day. Boat left on time, they have nice, new gear for everyone in our party, had a fast and smooth ride to the scallop site (saw a few dolphin on the way out). We hit the water after some expert scalloping instruction and everyone in my family caught scallops. Enough for dinner for 8. We also managed to stay out of the craziness of the other boats as Captain Dave knew some great spots off the beaten trail.
I mean, if you want easy, fun, a good time and lots of scallops, why go anywhere else. We will be back this winter for the manatee tour.
A+++++++

Very disappointed by the quality of the pontoon boat that we rented. It was very apparent that it had not been cleaned. There were ants everywhere and they got into our food and our coolers. That’s not even the worst part. There were roaches under the seats and they were climbing out onto us. The propeller was broken and only 3/4 of it seemed to be there. In the front of the boat, there was a soft spot that they covered with a mat. Not so sure they even cared when we said something and it seemed as if we were being accused of the broken propeller. If you’re gonna rent from them, check out the boat prior to leaving the dock. And GET THE INSURANCE!!

My husband and I took our first airboat ride and "Irish Dave" was our captain. His knowledge of the water/sea life was remarkable. The dolphins were plentiful on our trip. We definitely plan to do it again the next time we are in the area. We will make sure "Irish Dave" is our captain again!!!

We took the airboat 1hr tour. It wasn't as adventurous as advertised but Irish Dave was great! Definitely doing it again but a longer trip next time. Never made it out to the Gulf.

Had a great scallop trip with Captain Dave and Natalie!! Very attentive and knowledgeable. Put us on the scallops and kept a keen eye out for the yoyos who were racing around in the dive area....believe me, this is a critical service for a safe dive....thanks Dave and Natalie, will be back again for my next trip!!

This is an outstanding adventure! My grandson, his girlfriend and I had the great pleasure of having Irish Dave as our airboat captain. Irish Dave gave us one of the best, most fun rides one can have as he pointed out all the wildlife and marine life and shared his knowledge of the river to the Gulf of Mexico. This was better than any Disney ride I have ever been on!

Took a Sunday morning springs pontoon tour with Captain Ang. Great guy. Gave some history information and local places to eat or stay while in Old Homosassa. There were just 3 family members on the trip and my 12 year old grandson really wanted to get in the water so he came prepared just in case. When we got close to the springs Captain Ang saw some manatees in a spot away from all the boats. He anchored the boat and gave us instructions how to respect the manatees but be close by them in the water. He said it was highly unusual to see manatees in June but there were 4. He gave us a day we will never forget. Thank you Savannah and Samantha for making the arrangements and Captain Ang for a special experience.

We had so much fun with Dave! We saw manatees, a shark, sting rays, dolphins, turtles, and plenty of mangroves!! Dave was so knowledgeable and personable. The trip never felt rushed, he really allowed us to enjoy every interaction!

We rented a boat to take out ourselves. The staff really went above and beyond to make sure we had all the knowledge and supplies we needed to have an amazing day out on the water. The owners and staff are so incredibly friendly and welcoming. We highly recommend getting some of their food too. We’ve eaten there a few times and everything is so fresh and delicious.

We originally booked a two hour tour but I mixed up our time. I called in a fright and talked to Samantha. She was so very courteous and helpful and booked us on the three hour Manatee River, Dolphin Sighting, Gulf of Mexico tour. Now I have to say, I am a native Floridian and have toured from many marinas in our state. This was definitely one of the best. Our captain, Dave the Irishman, was very knowledgeable. He was able to tell us
about the local Ecosystem, Habitats, and facts about the Manatees, the water temps, diet etc. He gave us so much information
Throughout the 3 hours, even including history of The homes that are located right on the river. We saw a Manatee and pods of dolphins. We will return. When you book be sure to ask for Dave the Irishman!
