    Sign that says Your party is not allowed to stand on the deck while waiting for boat. Unreal

    Not too happy with the fact that Your party is not allowed to stand on the deck while waiting for boat. Unreal. They tell you to arrive early, then make you stand in the parking lot with no shade while you wait for the boat you paid for. Fix this asap!

    Inside pontoon. At dock looking up at business!

    The Staff here are excellent! They are pet friendly!!!! I rented a pontoon boat online. The online process was swift and easy! The prices are good! We chose a 4 hour block, for 9 am Saturday morning, we got there 8:30 am, checked in. They got us down to the pontoon boat & gave us a quick overview! And we were pulling away from the dock by 9:03 a.m.! I recommend Dockside Watersports while in Destin, Fl. Make lasting memories!!!

    Great price for a full day rental! Dock hands were wonderful and we would definitely rent from them again!

    8 of us went on this tour from 10a-2p. It was definitely the right time to take it. The parking lot…read morewas empty and by the time we got back there wasn't a spot to be seen. During our tour Tonya was our captain. She was amazing and very knowledgeable. We spent an hour watching dolphins and then the next 3 on a sand bar. The sand bar was awesome for the adults and kids. She put out a floating mat to lay on and parked right next to an inflatable obstacle course for the kids to play on. While on the sand bar she took a ton of photos and videos of everyone so you didn't have to worry about it. At the end of the tour she sent them to us at no extra charge. If we ever go back to Destin FL then we will for sure rent the boat again!!!! Hopefully Tonya is our captain again! NOTHING NEGATIVE ABOUT OUR EXPERIENCE!!

What a great trip. I would highly recommend if you want to truly relax rent a private boat with a captain like Brian.

    We rented a jet ski here. The workers were friendly and helpful. They gave us a lot of safety tips…read moreand advice. I highly recommend them.

    This was our favorite activity/experience in Destin! Captain Chris and his staff are amazing! They…read morewere very friendly and aimed at making this a great experience from the moment they introduced themselves. Immediately we were all laughing and joking like we were all old friends. The labeled life jackets are a nice touch. As we headed to the boat Chris got to know us a little and found out what type of experience we were looking for. At the beginning of the ride he asked what type of music we liked and he found a good station for the "turn up" to begin! It was a beautiful ride out and on the way he allowed us to do the Titanic pose and get pics of that lol. Chris was informed that we had one in our group that could not swim and did not want to be thrown into the water. He was amazing at making sure we got in a good ride without anyone being thrown off. Once she had had enough he allowed her to get back on the boat so that the other 2 of us could go for a faster ride. It was so fun!!! We both ended up being thrown off (which is exactly what we wanted). There weren't any rides scheduled after us, so on the return trip Chris made a detour to allow us to get up close views of some dolphins that were in the area! We saw about 3 or 4 of them swimming right next to the boat! It was beautiful and they captured it in our photos. We did opt for the photo package, and if you decide to do this ... I suggest you do to. They captured EVERYTHING. And who wants to worry about who's gonna take a picture when you're having fun and being thrown into the ocean?!? What I found exceptional about the photo package is that you are not given the photos immediately. You actually get a link to download them. This way they go through the pictures and get rid of any "junk" photos so you don't have to! You get amazing quality photos that will have you laughing for hours. We ended up with 82 QUALITY photos (in comparison to another activity we purchased a photo package for and ended up with 25 photos, but a couple were duplicates and another one was blurry/unusable). He even took the time to put the phrase "TURN UP" on one of the pics!!! It's worth it! Thanks again Captain Chris and crew for an amazing experience!
