Keeping Safe is Key to A Great Adventure

The safety of our guests is our most important concern. Customers will be thoroughly educated on the risks of boat propellers, tidal flows, rip currents, dangerous marine creatures, and equipped with the knowledge to assure a safe experience.

The customers who will be driving the boat will be required to have taken the Florida Boating Course approved by the National Association of State Boating Law Administrators (NASBLA) and recognized by the United States Coast Guard. Crab Island Watersports will offer such a course for drivers who have not taken it.
