    This was the most affordable trip we could find and they go the extra mile. We were thrilled to visit Shell island for an hour then drive around and see lots of dolphins. The ship also gives you the opportunity to feed the seagulls, pull up a trap in the middle of the bay to catch critters, and drive the boat. The captain had a big personality and added that extra touch. It ended up being slightly over 3.5 hours.

    We were looking for something to do with the grandkids Labor Day weekend and we started looking at this for an adventure. We opted for an evening Sunset Cruise that fit our plans. The cruises depart and return timely. We purchase our tickets online and we picked up our tickets at the window from Portia. The kids had a blast when they got to steer the boat and blow the horn. We also fed the sea gulls and watched the dolphins off the side of the boat. If you get hungry, they had food and snacks below at the counter for purchase. Bathrooms are below. Note to self: come back on your birthday and you get to drive the boat (or at least sit in the Captain's chair)! If the sunset cruise is for you, have your cameras ready because the sunsets are spectacular. This cruise was unexpectedly fun and we will definitely do this again!

    I booked the 5 hour morning fishing trip on the North Star Express from Captain Anderson's website. I was able to book this a few days in advance. The trip leaves at 7am and you have to come about 30 min before that to check in. It's $70 per person for fishing. $32 if you're just a rider. The boat was incredibly overcrowded. Once we stopped to fish, everyone's lines were tangled, some were catching and some weren't because there are just too many people. They tell people to basically keep every fish just so at the end it looks like you caught a stringer full. Dumb. I released almost all of mine because they weren't edible fish. I really should've known better, but it was an ok time. I would not book this again. That is for sure.

    Such a cool experience! I'm not a fisherman at all but we caught 7 fish! A lot of people caught fish on our journey! There was groups of Mahi Mahi following us so we just catching them! The deckhands were really patient with us and helped a lot! We really enjoyed it!

    We came at the very beginning of the fishing season, so we didn't get a whole lot of fish, but we had an absolute blast! Make sure to bring cash for snacks, beer, and tips. I bought a ticket for my fiancé to fish and I just bought a rider's ticket. We were allowed to switch back and forth reeling in fish. We had a great day.

    Nightmare... trip from hell! Our family goes on multiple deep sea fishing trips per year. Never in our years of fishing have we experienced a trip like this. We booked a 10 hour deep sea fishing trip on 4/4/19. We booked this trip a week before departure. Not knowing that a storm with high winds would be hitting that day. A couple days before we found out that the weather did not look so good so we called and asked them if we could change it to another day. We were told not to worry if the weather was bad they would cancel the trip and reimburse us or book us on another day. They said if there is rough seas they would not leave the port. That was not the case.... When we got there it was as a little Windy not so bad. As soon as the boat left the bay into open water the wave started to get bigger and the sea stared to get rough! We were hit with over 12 foot waves and THEY DID NOT CANCEL THE TRIP OR TURN BACK!! My husband and my son's 14 year old freind Almost flew out of the boat. The rocking was so bad an older gentleman fell backwards on the deck! There was vomit all over the bathroom toilets and floor! When we got back to the port my husband went to the office with other passengers demanding our money back we were told that the owner is not there and she could not give our money back .After explaining to her that we are here from out of state she proceeds to gave him a hand written note on plain copy paper offering him 50% off his next trip that expires next month!! Needless to say we did not get what we paid for what we got was a trip from hell! Captain Anderson's charter License should be suspended! They should not be permitted to operate when they put the safety of the passengers in jeopardy just so they don't cancel a trip and lose money! If somebody would have actually fell off the boat and drowned this would be a whole different story luckily it only ended this way..... Hate to even give them 1 star but no option for zero star!!!

    Went on a 10 hour fishing trip today and caught between my husband and I three silver type of fish and 18 B-liners! Had them cleaned and only received two of the silver fish and 12 of the b-liners. They rip you off. Make sure you count your fish in front of them and count your fish when you get them back! Thieves!

    It's always been a dream of mine to go ocean fishing and today my dream came true! I caught a triggerfish and many vermilion snappers and there were many dolphin sightings along the way. I'm so glad another charter service recommended Captain Anderson's, the experienced rom start to finish was top notch! The staff was great, Zander, my assigned deck hand went above and beyond, he had a great attitude, answered all of my questions and worked his tail off from the time we left the dock until we returned. I also have to mention too, Savannah was a sweetheart and kept me company since I was solo. I will definitely come back and do another trip next time we're in PCB.

    Bryson with the remora he caught.

    Our family of 8 did the 5 hr. afternoon deep-sea fishing trip yesterday after our original fishing trip was canceled by the captain (different company.) The boat can take 75, but luckily there were only about 20 people on our trip so we had plenty of room and attention. We caught about 30 red fish and even a remora (threw him back of course but not before we grabbed an awesome photo of him suctioned to the arm of the man that caught him,Our deck hand helper was Seth and took GREAT care of us (sorry about the tangled lines Seth!!!)

    6 of us set sail on a Private excursion. The Daydreamer was a 45ft sail boat with all the amenities…read moresuch as lower deck with kitchen, Bathrooms, beds and dining area. Captain Jacob and his deck mate Liz are amazing. Jacob after a very thorough safety talk and a hands on way to safely move around the boat gave us a perfect tour. Jacob was knowledgeable of the area. Gave us a view of Dolphins and set us up for a perfect sunset. Liz was very professional when it came to hoisting the sails and assisting Jacob with the safety talk. Liz excelled with taking care of every need of us the guests. They supplied beverages of many varieties and Liz prepared and presented the food that we brought for our cruise. We had a friend with us that was afraid of water, not able to swim, and Liz checked in her regularly to make sure she was comfortable. Both Jacob and Liz made sure safety was the number one priority without taking away from the fun asking experience. We were under the sails for quite a while The entire experience was fantastic. Thank You Jacob and Liz.

    We found this place from TikTok and got the same exact boat driver I think his name was Jason or…read moreTrevor idk but both guys could handle all types of groups we had on board. You can bring yr own snacks n drinks n rafts. But they did provide a lot. Coolers, googles, Lilly pad, music, and a cocktail. Super nice dudes for a rainy day. Didn't see much at the shell island but still enjoyed it for 50$ each. Made new friends we had dinner with after and there was a bar on the dock.
