It’s the ultimate sandbar party or a chilled-out escape — depending on the vibe you’re after. Whether you're here to swim, sunbathe, or take in the lively atmosphere, your captains tailor the experience to your group, making sure you get the most out of your Crab Island adventure.Perfect for families, couples, or groups of friends — and yes, pets are welcome too!

Frequently Asked Questions (9)

Q: Will I get seasick on 2 Hour Private Captained Crab Island Dolphin Tour in Destin?

A: If you have any doubts about becoming seasick on the water, we recommend taking a Dramamine® Motion Sickness Relief tablet the night before your trip. Some people recommend taking it the night before your cruise and then again that morning so you will not feel so drowsy. Read more Feb 2023
