Captain Andy was incredible--friendly, knowledgeable, and made the entire trip fun and relaxing for our whole family. My wife, our three kids, and even our dog had an amazing time. We spent the day swimming, snorkeling, and exploring beautiful sandbars that felt like our own private paradise. One of the highlights was cruising through the mangroves--the views were stunning and unlike anything we've experienced before. It was peaceful, scenic, and truly memorable. If you're looking for a perfect family adventure in Key West, this is it. Highly recommend Island Tales Charter--we'll definitely be back!

I'm so glad we did! The boat was equipped with everything we needed - had a bathroom, mini fridge for your lunch, they provided a cooler with plenty of water for the day which was very nice. We had fun catching a variety of fish, including mahi mahi, Bonita, one little tuna and the biggie: a white marlin, which was an unexpected surprise for us all and the highlight of our outing. Jesse worked tirelessly the entire time and it was an overall fantastic day. Once we returned back to the dock, he filleted our mahi for us and we took it over to Kaya Island eats per his recommendation which was the perfect end to a fun, tiring but successful day on the water. If you want a great day with nice, knowledgeable folks who will work hard to make your day memorable, I highly recommend booking with Linda D. UPDATE: Went out again on Wednesday and had an equally fantastic time w/captain Billy & Jesse. We caught several mackerel, king fish (including one very large one) and a few barracuda - the weather was beautiful and it was fun to catch such a different variety of fish over our couple of outings - our dinner was again delicious :) We will for sure be back!

I had never been fishing before, and the sheer size of some of the fish Capt Jay helped us haul out of the ocean was incredible! It was my first time seeing snapper and grouper in person, and it's a pity that none of us had the resources to take our catch home (our hotel room's mini-fridge wouldn't have stood a chance). Nevertheless, catch-and-release-style fishing was surprisingly very fun and a lot more fast-paced than I thought fishing would be. I do believe many of Capt Jay's customers bring their own coolers to cart their fish home, which is something we will keep in mind for our next trip down. We ended our trip with some snorkeling (with the aforementioned groupers and and thousands of yellow fish that I forget the name of) and that was amazing!! FYI, Capt Jay is fluent in both Mandarin Chinese and English, and really is a genuine, kind guy who works his hardest to ensure that you have a wonderful trip, weather permitting. Whether for snorkeling or deep sea fishing, I would highly recommend you give Capt Jay a call.

The boat is Hydra Sports 33 with advanced fish finders. Always fully prepared. Jay uses best rods, reels (Stella Sw, Daiwa Saltiga) lines and baits to catch whatever you want. If you would like to catch some food, You will probably limit out within hours for yellowtails, snappers and groupers. For those who wish to catch a trophy, hundred pounds of groupers, amberjack, tuna, Sharks are common. By the way, on Summer time, we released more than 40 Mahi because we have already limited out. Highly recommended.

Sammy Creek Landing is no exception. Basically it was once upon a time a home but today it's a local park but we can't figure out if it's a county park or from the state. We always wonder because one year it's nice and relaxing and another year it's overgrown with weeds and kind of sad. I remember when it had no parking (limited to parking on Old State Road 4A), and nowadays it has a parking lot and it's landscaped and it's pretty clean. Nonetheless the place is nice... and I cherish the memories I have of this place.
