    Had a nice time today on the Vera Marie even with the bit of rough seas. The Captain was great and Dennis and Ron were excellent with all their assistance and help during the trip. Highly recommend this charter company.

    Dennis was fantastic on the deep sea fishing trip! We caught plenty of fish and it was very comfortable.

    Made a memory parasailing with my 13up son today. Everything about the experience was perfect: weather, water, playlist, captain and crew. Special thanks to Christian and Ashley to making it special.

    Snorkeling Tour

    If you are considering this tour or one like this in the area, go for lower price and what they have to offer (food/drink) some of them end up in the same areas one of which you could probably access on your own. Of all the tours we looked at online, this was  written well and I believed we were going to go to a beautiful island location. This one was on the pricier side and made me feel even more dupped for less offered but higher price when at least 3 other tours were in the same exact locations. Online payment registration was a bit confusing, I made the reservation, payment option was square, then the screen returned to home page and I got an email confirming my pending reservation. It ended up that no payment was made just the reservation spot and they will call you to confirm, but I went ahead and called and gave payment and received confirmation over the phone. When I asked questions, the young women on the phone didn't know any of the answers, she said so herself. Upon arriving you are charged $10 for parking. It's not somewhere else's parking lot, it appears to be theirs and they still charge $10 to park. I thought this was strange. You are texted this after you've paid your reservation. Arrive early fill out disclaimers. Upon arrival there are bathrooms and a few items for purchase if needed. No coolers but beach bags/snack and drinks welcome. Snorkel gear provided. The boat launched and we were off on about a slow 20 minute boat ride to east jetties (just google east jetties and figure out how to get here and save yourself some money). Your supposed to snorkel in a designated area as to keep you away from boat traffic. Snorkel along the jetties in approximately 3-5 ft of water. It was just ok. We spent maybe 20/25 minutes there and there was already a good amount of people there and then 2 more tours arrived. We were the first tour of the day (8am). We then left to to Shell Island a different type of water, that had access to a "beach" and this area had protected seagrass so fins couldn't be used. Technically we weren't allowed to sit and rest on beach. I saw a few fish.  The area was about 1-3 feet of water, we were pretty much crawling. This second area was no where near how it was described on their website. Very disappointing. This is where supposedly one could find shells. We were here about another 25 minutes or so. The current was strong returning to the boat. Upon returning to the boat there was a family that just emptied their pockets and hands of a ton of bleached white seashells. I asked where they found them at and they said in a line underwater...hmmmm...they were the only ones to find some.  We returned to the boat and were asked for a tip with a sign stating 20% customary. I know there is a lot of pre and post prep but of tourist area boat trips like this, this one was very underwhelming and overpriced. The thing that made me upset is I paid more for the exact location as other cheaper tours thinking I was getting more but I did not.

    The Vera Marie

    Took a 6hr shared trip on the Vera Marie. It was our first time deep-sea fishing and we were glad that's how we chose to spend a day of our vacation! The whole crew was very helpful and you could tell they very much wanted everyone fishing to have the most enjoyable experience. Crew members Matthew and Mike were especially helpful to my wife and I. They were patient, kind, and made the fishing fun and exciting. The captain put our group onto a boat load of fish, no pun intended, because our group of 20 brought home 57 keepers! Thank you guys, we'll be back!

    Parasailing

    We had a great time parasailing for the first time with Pelican Adventures! Jeff and JJ were amazing! Kept things alive with music, fun stories and jokes to keep passengers of all ages entertained!

    Shelling/snorkeling area
    Rachael P.

    Our family went out for the one hour shelling/snorkeling adventure and had a wonderful time! The captain and crew were knowledgeable and fun. The boat ride out was nice, and complete with several dolphin sightings. The water at the shelling/snorkeling spot was clear and beautiful. We found a lot of good shells. Great family fun!

    Lee and Andrew were excellent! We had a bachelorette group book a last minute trip and had a wonderful time out on the water! Would highly recommend this company!

    See all

    Lots of fun! Charlie and Noah were the best! We caught plenty of fish and will definitely do this trip again.

    We had the BEST time parasailing with Sundog Parasailing in Destin! From start to finish, the crew…read morewas professional, friendly, and made us feel so welcome!. It was my kids first time parasailing, and they walked us through everything so they had a blast! The views from up there were absolutely breathtaking, crystal-clear water, white sandy beaches, and even a few dolphins and jellyfish swimming below us. It feels surreal. The takeoff and landing were super smooth, and the whole experience felt safe and well-organized, only 6 people go out at a time so we aren't packed into a boat. The boat ride itself was also a blast, good music, great vibes, and lots of laughs. The crew had a great sense of humor and made the whole trip so great. If you're visiting Destin and looking for something exciting and memorable, don't miss out on Sundog Parasailing these guys are the best! I went 2 years ago and when we got back to the area I knew I had to book with them again and take my kids! We will be back.

    They were a small company but it was so nice! The boat only holds a few people so you really get to…read moreenjoy the scenery. The captain took extra time to circle back and let us see dolphins. It was a great time!
